ALARM
I f fi t t e d o n y o u r v e h i c l e , t h i s p r o v i d e s
two types of protection:
- exterior protection: it sounds if a d o o r , t h e t a i l g a t e o r t h e b o n n e t i s

- interior protection: it sounds if the volume inside the passenger
c o m p a r t m e n t c h a n g e s ( b r e a k i n g o f
a window or a movement inside the
vehicle).
A red indicator light, located in the
centre of the fascia, indicates the
i n f o r m a t i o n d e t a i l e d b e l o w . To lock your vehicle without setting
the alarm, insert the key in the
lock then lock the vehicle (e.g. for
washing).
When the alarm is triggered, the siren
sounds and the direction indicator
