and a warning lamp on the con-
trol1 which is visible from outside

ANTI-INTRUSION ALARM
OPERATING THE ALARM
First make sure all the doors are closed.
The alarm is armed by pressing button Bon the remote control.
With the alarm armed, the protections are active after 5 seconds (perimeter) and 45 seconds (volumetric).
When the alarm is armed (on standby), any intrusion
will trigger the siren for 30 seconds, accompanied by
the direction indicators lighting up.
The alarm then
goes back on standby, but the trigger-
ing remains memorised and is signalled by the rapid fl ashing of the warning lamp on control1 after you have deactivated the alarm with a press on the unlocking button A. The fl ashing stops when you switch on the ignition.
The siren is also tri
ggered if there is a cutting of the electrical supply. To stop it, restore the electrical supply
then press on the unlocking button A.Note:If you want to lock your vehicle without arming the
alarm, just lock with the key only.
If you lock your vehicle and a door, or the boot, is still open, the central locking does not operate but the alarm will arm itself after approx. 45 seconds.Note: The siren is automatically deactivated (for example for disconnecting the battery) as soon as the vehicle is unlocked using the remote control.

Deactivating the volumetric detection
You can operate the alarm with perimeter protection
only, by deactivating the volumetric protection (if for example you wish to leave an animal in the vehicle).
For this, switch o
ff the ignition then immediately pressbutton1 for at least one second.
The warning lamp on button1should come perma-nently on. It will start to fl ash when the alarm is armed.
Arm the alarm b
y locking your vehicle with the remotecontrol.
It is recommended to deactivate the volumetric detec-
tion when washing the vehicle in order to prevent the
random triggering of the alarm.
Automatic activation (according to destination)
The alarm is armed automatically, 2 minutes after the
last door, or the boot, has been closed.
In order to prevent the alarm from triggering when you
open one of the doors or the boot, it is essential to press
the unlocking button A again on the remote control.
