following occurs:
- A door is opened without using theremote key or smart key.
- The trunk is opened without using the remote key or smart key.
- The engine hood is opened.
The alarm continues for 30 seconds, then the system resets. To turn off
the alarm, unlock the doors with

the engine (for smart key) by direct-
ly pressing the ignition switch with
