ARMING THE ALARM
The system is armed as soon as the
vehicle is locked and acts as a deterrent
to unauthorised persons who attempt to
open the doors, bonnet or luggage
compartment, or remove the audio
system.
The alarm sounds for 30 seconds if an
unauthorised person opens a door, the
luggage compartment or the bonnet. The
hazard flasher lights will flash for five
minutes.
Any attempt to start the engine without a
valid key or to remove the audio system
sounds the alarm again.
Automatic arming delay
The 20 seconds arming delay begins
when the bonnet, luggage compartment
and all doors are closed.
Interior sensors
WARNING
This system functions correctly only
if all windows are completely closed.
In addition to this, the sensors
located in the interior lamp unit must not
be covered up. The system should not
be activated if any persons, animals or
other moving objects are inside the
vehicle. This system acts as a deterrent against
unauthorised intrusion by sensing any
movement within the vehicle. Unauthorised entry into the vehicle’s
interior will trigger the alarm in the same
way as the anti-theft system.
The sensors are located in the interior
lamp unit.
All except Britain and Ireland
The interior sensing alarm is armed
together with the double locking system.
Britain and Ireland only
The interior sensing alarm is armed
together with the central locking system.
To deactivate the interior sensors press
the switch next to the driver’s door
handle.
DISARMING THE ALARM
The system can be deactivated at any
time, even when the alarm is sounding,
by unlocking the vehicle from the outside.
The system will be deactivated if:
•
A valid passive key is located within
the detection range.
• The unlock button on the remote
control is pressed.
• A valid passive key is located within
the vehicle interior and you depress
the clutch pedal (manual transmission)
or brake pedal (automatic
transmission).
• You insert the key blade into the key
holder.
The system for the luggage compartment
lid will be deactivated if.
• A valid passive key is located within
the detection range.
• The luggage compartment lid unlock
button on the remote control is
pressed.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Disc brakes
Wet brake discs result in reduced braking
efficiency. Dab the brake pedal when
driving from a car wash to remove the film
of water.
ABS
WARNING
The ABS does not relieve you of
your responsibility to drive with due
care and attention.
The ABS helps you to maintain full steering
and directional stability when you brake
heavily in an emergency, by preventing
the road wheels from locking.
HINTS ON DRIVING WITH
ABS
When the ABS is operating, the brake
pedal will pulse. This is normal. Maintain
pressure on the brake pedal.
The ABS will not eliminate the dangers
inherent when:
•
you drive too close to the vehicle in
front of you.
• the vehicle is aquaplaning.
• you take corners too fast.
• the road surface is poor. PARKING BRAKE
All vehicles WARNING
Vehicles with an automatic
transmission should always be left
with the selector lever in position
P. •
Press the foot brake pedal firmly.
• Pull the parking brake lever up smartly
to its fullest extent.
• Do not press the release button while
pulling the lever up.
• If your vehicle is parked on a hill and
facing uphill, select first gear and turn
the steering wheel away from the
kerb.
• If your vehicle is parked on a hill and
facing downhill, select reverse gear
and turn the steering wheel towards
the kerb.
To release the parking brake, press the
brake pedal firmly, pull the lever up slightly,
depress the release button and push the
lever down.
