THE ALARM
This provides two types of surveillance:
- exterior protection: it sounds if
a door, the boot or the bonnet is
opened.
- interior protection: it sounds if
the volume inside the passenger
compartment changes (breaking
of a window or a movement inside
the vehicle). When the alarm is triggered, the siren
sounds and the direction indicator lights
fl a s h f o r a p p r o x i m a t e l y t h i r t y s e c o n d s .
After triggering, the alarm remains set,
ten times in succession.
On the eleventh time it will become
inactive again, until the next cycle of
disarming then setting of the alarm.
