Operating instructions
Tips and Maintenance
Te c h n i c a l D a t a
The horn sounds and the indicators flash for approx. 30 seconds.
How is the alarm switched off?
To deactiva
te the anti-theft alarm, the key must be turned to the open position
in the driver’s door and the ignition must be turned on within 15 seconds, or
the button on the remote control may also be used.
•
The indicator light flashes twice on opening and the alarm is deactivated.
•
The indicator light flashes once on closing and the alarm is activated.
In vehicles equipped with an additional* alarm system, if the vehicle is
opened using the driver’s door key, you have 15 sec to insert the key in the
ignition lock and activate the ignition. Otherwise, the alarm will go off for 30
sec. and the ignition will be blocked.
In vehicles with keys without remote co ntrol it is necessary to wait 30 seconds
until the alarm stops. Then lock the vehicle using the key and repeat the
above process.
If the vehicle is opened at any door other than the driver’s door or the tailgate
the alarm will go off for 30 seconds.Note
•
After 28 days the indicator light will switch off to prevent the battery
running down where the vehicle has been left parked for a long period of
time. The alarm system remains activated.
•
If, after the alarm has stopped, attempts are made to open another
protection zone, the alarm will be triggered again.
•
The alarm system can be activated or deactivated using the remote
control. ⇒page 76.
Volumetric sensor*
Monitoring or control function incorporated in the anti-theft
alarm* that detects unauthoriz ed vehicle entry using ultra-
sound.The system consists of 3 sensor s, 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
– Open the vehicle with the key, either mechanically
3) or by
pressing the button on the remote control.
– Press the button on the remote control twice. Only the volu- metric sensor is deactivated. The alarm system remains acti-
vated.
The interior monitoring system will be switched on automatically with the
anti-theft alarm. All of the doors and the tailgate must be closed to activate
the sensor of the interior monitoring system.
The interior monitor should be switched off, if for example animals are briefly
left in the locked vehicle. Their movements could otherwise trigger an alarm.
The interior monitor should also be deactivated if the windows are left
slightly open, otherwise the alarm may be triggered due to the effect caused
by wind entering the vehicle.
3)The time period from when the door is opened until the key is inserted in the contact
should not exceed 15 sec., otherwise the alarm will be triggered.

Fitting the front towing eye
– First remove the right hand cover from the lower part of the bumper.
– Remove the bolt ⇒page 221, fig. 159 .
– Take the towing ring and the wheel spanner out of the vehicle tool kit.
– Turn the ring to the left with the box spanner until it is correctly screwed in.
– To remove the ring, turn to the right with the box spanner.Tow-rope or tow-bar
It is easier and safer to tow a vehicle with a tow-bar. You should only use a
tow-rope if you do not have a tow-bar.
A tow-rope should be slightly elastic to reduce the loading on both vehicles.
It is advisable to use a tow-rope made of synthetic fibre or similarly elastic
material.
Attach the tow-rope or the tow-bar only to the towing eyes provided or a
towing bracket.
Driving style
Towing requires some experience, especially when using a tow-rope. Both
drivers should be familiar with the te chnique required for towing. Inexperi-
enced drivers should not attempt to tow-start or tow away another vehicle.
Do not pull too hard with the towing vehicle and take care to avoid jerking the
tow-rope. When towing on an unpaved ro ad, there is always a risk of over-
loading and damaging the anchorage points.
The ignition of the vehicle being towed must be switched on to prevent the
steering wheel from locking and also to allow the use of the turn signals,
horn, windscreen wipers and washers. As the brake servo does not work if the
engine is not running, you must apply
considerably more pressure to the brake pedal than you normally would.
As the power assisted steering does not work if the engine is not running, you
will need more strength to steer than you normally would.
Towing vehicles with an automatic gearbox
•
Put the selector lever into position “N”.
•
Do not drive faster than 50 km/h when towing a vehicle.
•
Do not tow further than 50 km.
•
If a breakdown vehicle is used, the vehicle must be towed with the front
wheels raised.Note
•
Observe legal requirements when towing or tow-starting.
•
Switch on the hazard warning lights of both vehicles. However, observe
any regulations to the contrary.
•
For technical reasons, vehicles with an automatic gearbox must not be
tow-started.
•
If damage to your vehicle means that there is no lubricant in the gearbox,
you must raise the drive wheels while the vehicle is being towed.
•
If the vehicle has to be towed more than 50 km, the front wheels must be
raised during towing, and towing should be carried out by a qualified person.
•
The steering wheel is locked when the vehicle has no electrical power. The
vehicle must then be towed with the front wheels raised. Towing should be
carried out by a qualified person.
•
The towing eye should always be kept in the vehicle. Please refer to the
notes on ⇒page 221, “Tow-starting*”.
