Alarm system
The concept
The vehicle alarm system responds:
> When a door, the hood or the lug-
gage compartment lid is opened
> To movement inside the vehicle (inte-
rior motion sensor)
> To variations in the vehicle tilt sensor
such as occur during attempts to
steal the wheels or tow the vehicle
> To interruption of battery voltage.
The system responds to unauthorized
vehicle entry and attempted theft by
simultaneously activating the following:
> Sounding an acoustical alarm for
30 seconds
> The hazard warning flashers are acti-
vated for approx. five minutes
> The high beams flash on and off in
the same rhythm.
To arm and disarm the alarm
system
When the vehicle is locked or unlocked
via a door lock or with the remote con-
trol, the alarm system is also simulta-
neously armed or disarmed.
The interior motion sensor is activated
approx. 30 seconds after you have fin-
ished locking the car.
The system indicates that it has been
correctly armed by switching on the
hazard flashers for a single cycle and by
emitting an acoustical signal.
You can have different acknowl-
edgment signals set to confirm
arming and disarming (not released at
this time).<
You can also open the luggage com-
partment lid when the system is armed
by pressing button 3 of the remote con-
trol (refer to page 37). When the lid is
closed, it is once again deadlocked.
Indicator lamp displays
> The indicator lamp on the top of the
instrument panel flashes continu-
ously: The system is armed
> The indicator lamp flashes during
arming: Door(s), the hood or luggage
compartment lid are not completely
closed. Even if you do not close the
alerted area, the system begins to
monitor the remaining areas, and the
indicator lamp flashes continuously
after 10 seconds. However, the inte-
rior motion sensor is not activated
> If the indicator lamp goes out when
the system is disarmed: No unau-
thorized entries have been detected
in the period since the system was
armed
