If the alarm system is armed, a visual and
audible alarm is triggered by the following:
R Unlocking the vehicle from inside
R Opening a door
R Opening the hood
i The alarm is not switched off, even if you
immediately close the open door that has
triggered it, for example.
X To stop the alarm: press the0036button
on the remote control.
Or
X Insert the key into the ignition lock.
The alarm stops. Tow-away alarm
Operation A visual and audible alarm is triggered if the
inclination of the vehicle changes when the
tow-away alarm is armed. This can be the
case if the vehicle is raised on one side, for
example.
Arming/deactivating The tow-away alarm is automatically armed
approximately 20 seconds after you lock the
vehicle.
The tow-away alarm is automatically deacti-
vated when you unlock the vehicle.

X Press button 0043.
When the button is released, the indicator
lamp on button 0044lights up for about
5 seconds.

until you lock the vehicle again.
Deactivate the tow-away alarm when locking
your vehicle and:
R loading and/or transporting the vehicle, on
a ferry or car transporter, for example
R parking on a moving surface, as split-level
garage
This will prevent false alarms. Interior motion sensor
Operation If the armed interior motion sensor detects
motion in the vehicle interior, a visual and
acoustic alarm is triggered. This can happen
if someone reaches into the vehicle interior,
for example.
i
If the interior motion sensor is armed and
the auxiliary heating system (Y page 122)
switches on, a false alarm may occur as a
result of interior temperature monitoring.
In this case, either deactivate the interior
motion sensor or switch off the auxiliary
heating.
Arming X

X Make sure that nothing (such as mascots
or coat hangers) are hanging on the rear-
view mirror or on the grab handles on the
headliner.

WARNING
Repeatedly switching on the seat heating can
cause the seat cushion and backrest pads to
become very hot. The health of persons with
limited temperature sensitivity or a limited
ability to react to excessively high tempera-
tures may be affected or they may even suffer
burn-like injuries. There is a risk of injury.
Therefore, do not switch the seat heating on
repeatedly.
! When you leave your seat, do not place
anything on the seat and switch off the seat
heating. Do not switch the seat heating on
when the seat is not occupied, e.g. when
driving without a co-driver. The seat heat-
ing may otherwise overheat, causing dam-
age to the seat. The three red indicator lamps in the
0072
button show the activated heating level 1to
3.
The system automatically switches down
from level 3to level 2after approximately
five minutes.
The system automatically switches down
from level 2to level 1after approximately
