82Interior monitoring and anti-towing alarm*
Monitoring or control function incorporated in the anti-theft
alarm* which detects unauthorized vehicle entry by means of
ultrasound.Activation
– It is connected automatically when the anti-theft alarm is acti-
vated.
Deactivation
– Open the vehicle with the key, either mechanically
9) or by
pressing the button on the remote control.
– Press the button on the remote control twice. The volumetric sensor and tilt sensors will be deactivated. The alarm system
remains activated.
The interior monitoring and the anti-towing alarm are automatically switched
on again next time the vehicle is locked.
The interior monitoring and anti-towing alarm (tilt sensor) are automatically
switched on when the anti-theft alarm is switched on. In order to activate it,
all the doors and the tailgate must be closed.
If you wish to disconnect the interior monitoring and the anti-towing system,
it must be done each time that the vehicle is locked; if not, they will connect
automatically.
The interior monitoring and the anti-towing system should be disconnected
if animals are left inside the locked vehicle (otherwise, their movements will trigger the alarm) or when, for example, the vehicle is transported or has to
be towed with only one axle on the ground.
False alarms
The interior monitoring only operates correctly if the vehicle is completely
closed. Please observe legal requirements when doing so.
The following cases may cause a false alarm:
•opened windows (partially or fully)•panorama/tilting sunroof open (partially or completely).•movement of objects inside the vehicle, such as loose papers, items
hanging from the rear view mirror (air fresheners), etc.Note
•If the vehicle is relocked and the alarm is activated without the volumetric
sensor function, relocking will activate the alarm with all its functions, except
the volumetric sensor. This function is reactivated when the alarm is switched
on again, unless it is deliberately switched off.•If the alarm has been triggered by the volumetric sensor, this will be indi-
cated by a flashing of the indicator on the driver door. The flash is different to
the flash indicating the alarm is activated.•The vibration of a mobile phone left inside the vehicle may cause the inte-
rior monitoring alarm to trigger, as both sensors react to movements and
shakes inside the vehicle.•If on activating the alarm, any door or the tailgate is open, only the alarm
will be activated. The interior monitoring and the anti-towing system will only
be activated once all the doors are closed (including the tailgate).
9)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.
