a deterrent against theft and break-
ins. It provides the following types of
monitoring:


- Exterior perimeter
The system checks for opening of
the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if anyone tries
to open a door, the boot, the bonnet...




- Interior volumetric
The system checks for any variation
in the volume in the passenger com-
partment.
The alarm is triggered if anyone breaks a window, enters the passenger com-
partment or moves inside the vehicle.




- Tilt
The system checks for any change
in the attitude of the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if the vehicle
is lifted, moved or knocked.



Self-protection function
The system checks for the
putting out of service of its
components.
The alarm is triggered if the bat-
tery, the central control or the si-
ren wiring are put out of service or
damaged.
For all work on the alarm system,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
