Note
•
If, after the alarm goes off, access is gained to a second secured zone
(e.g. the tailgate is opened after a door has been opened), the warning signal
is triggered again.
•
Vehicle monitoring remains active even if the battery is disconnected or
not working for any reason.
•
The alarm is triggered immediately if one of the battery cables is discon-
nected while the alarm system is active.
Volumetric sensor*
Monitoring or control function incorporated in the anti-theft
alarm* that detects unauthorized vehicle entry using ultra-
sound.The system consists of 3 sensors, 2 emitters and a receptor.
Activation
– It is automatically turned on with the anti-theft alarm, when the
vehicle is locked mechanically with the key and when the button on the remote control is used.
Deactivation
– Press the button on the remote control twice. Only the volu- metric sensor is deactivated. The alarm system remains acti-
vated.
WARNING
•
The “safe” security system remains deactivated if the volumetric
sensor is deactivated.
•
For those vehicles in which a separate sunblind is fitted in the
passenger compartment, the alarm will not function correctly due to inter-
ference with the sensor.Note
•
If the alarm has been triggered by the volumetric sensor, this will be indi-
cated by a flashing of the indicator on th e driver's door. This flashing will be
different to that for an activated alarm.
