DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION DETECTION COMPONENTS
Switches
Perimetric protection for the vehicle is provided by
ECU inputs connected to the following:
Key switches (including starter)
Sill buttons
Bonnet switch
Door switches
Ultrasonic sensor
The ultrasonic sensor is located on the interior light
switch panel and triggers the alarm if movement is
detected.
WARNING INDICATORS
Battery backed-up sounder
The battery backed-up sounder is located in the
engine compartment and provides an audible warning
whenever the alarm is triggered.
NOTE: Disconnecting the vehicle battery
will result in the alarm sounding if the
correct procedure has not been followed.
See Repair, Battery.
Engine immobilisation warning light (EIWL)
The engine immobilisation warning light is located in
the instrument pack and provides a visual indication
that the engine is immobilised.
Anti-theft alarm indicator light
The anti-theft alarm indicator light is located in the
instrument pack and provides a visual indication of the
alarm status.
Inertia switch and central door locking
As a safety feature, the alarm system is designed to
recognise the inertia switch and via the ECU, unlock
the doors in the event of a collision.
NOTE: This feature only applies when the
starter switch is in the on position.ANTI-THEFT ALARM OPERATION (96 MODELS)
Full arming and immobilisation
Locking the vehicle using the handset immobilises the
engine and initializes both volumetric and perimetric
protection, providing:
1.After a lock signal has been received, a period of
15 seconds has elapsed during which no
movement is detected inside the vehicle;
2.No door or bonnet is open.
NOTE: If either of the above conditions are
not satisfied, the alarm will only be
partially armed. This is a mislock condition
which will be made apparent by a delay of 10
seconds before the anti-theft alarm indicator
begins to flash.
Disarming the alarm
NOTE: ALWAYS disarm the alarm using
the handset.
Unlocking with the key will not disarm the alarm or
mobilise the vehicle. If the handset fails to unlock the
vehicle
See Repair, Handset.
Partial arming and immobilisation
The alarm will be partially armed and the engine
immobilised if the vehicle is locked with the handset or
key, if:
1.After a lock signal has been received, a period of
15 seconds has elapsed during which movement
is detected inside the vehicle;
2.A door or bonnet is open.
NOTE: This is a mislock condition which
will be made apparent by a delay of 10
seconds before the anti-theft alarm
indicator begins to flash. Subsequent closure of
the offending aperture will cause the alarm to
attempt full arming as previously described.
Immobilisation
The vehicle will be automatically immobilised
whenever any of the following conditions occur:
1.The vehicle is locked using the handset.
2.The vehicle is locked using the key.
3.Thirty seconds after the starter switch has been
turned off AND the driver's door opened.
4.Five minutes after the starter switch is turned off
or the alarm disarmed.

REPAIR HANDSET INITIALISATION
NOTE: New handsets are supplied in pairs.
If a new handset is required, it will require
initialisation to the ECU using the
following procedure:
1.Starting conditions: ignition off, doors unlocked,
bonnet switch depressed.
2.Carry out instructions 3. to 9. within 8 seconds.
3.Switch ignition ON.
4.Switch ignition OFF.
5.Lock doors.
6.Unlock doors.
7.Release bonnet switch.
8.Switch ignition ON.
9.Switch ignition OFF.
If alarm is correctly accessed, horn will sound and
LED will light. It is now possible to programme two
handsets of correct frequency to vehicle alarm ECU.
This must be carried out within two minutes.
10.Press and hold down button on first handset until
dash LED flashes.
11.Repeat instruction 10. for second handset.
12.The LED will extinguish if both handsets have
been initialised correctly.CENTRAL DOOR LOCKING
Where electrically operated central door locking is
fitted, locking or unlocking the drivers door from
outside by key operation, or from the inside with the
sill knob automatically locks or unlocks the passenger
and rear doors.
Front and rear passenger doors can be independently
locked or unlocked from inside the vehicle by sill knob
operation but can be overidden by further operation of
the driver's door locking control.
On rear doors, where side facing fold down seats are
fitted, a child safety lock is provided which can be
mechanically pre-set to render the interior door
handles inoperative.
Failure of a door actuator will not affect the operation
of the remaining doors and the door with the
inoperative actuator can still be locked or unlocked
manually.
The actuator unit fitted to the driver's door is the
master actuator and is identified from the actuators
fitted to the passenger and rear doors by having a
white connecting link, whereas the passenger and
rear door actuators have grey coloured connecting
links.
NOTE: Actuator units are non-servicable, if
a fault should occur replace the unit with a
new one.
