Alarm system >If the indicator lamp flashes for 10
seconds when the system is dis-
armed: an attempted entry has been
detected in the period since the
system was armed.
Following triggering of an alarm, the
indicator lamp will flash continuously. Avoiding unintentional alarms The tilt alarm sensor and interior motion
sensor may be switched off at the same
time. To prevent a false alarm from be-
ing triggered (in garages with elevator
ramps, for instance), or when the vehi-
cle is transported by trailer or train:
Actuate the lock (= arm the system)
twice; in other words, press button 2 of
the remote control twice in succession
(refer to page 38). You may also actuate
the locks twice with the key (refer to
page 36).
The indicator lamp lights up briefly and
then flashes continuously. The tilt alarm
sensor and the interior motion sensor
are deactivated as long as the system is
armed.
Interior motion sensor The illustration depicts the transmitter
and receiver of the interior motion
sensor.
In order for the interior motion sensor to
function properly, the windows and
sliding/tilt sunroof must be completely
closed.
However, be sure to deactivate the in-
terior motion sensor (see the previous
column) when you wish to leave the
windows or sliding/tilt sunroof open. 530us019
