About the Security System
If Model X does not detect a key nearby and a
locked door or trunk is opened, an alarm sounds and headlights and turn signals
flash.To deactivate the alarm, press any button on the key.
To manually enable or disable the alarm system, touch Controls > Settings > Safety &
Security > Alarm. When set to on, Model X activates its alarm one minute after the doors
lock and a recognized key is no longer
detected nearby.
If Model X is equipped with the optional security package, it includes a battery-backed
siren that sounds instead of the horn in
situations where a locked door or trunk is
opened and Model X does not detect a key
nearby. If the Tilt/Intrusion setting is on, the
siren also sounds if Model X detects motion inside the cabin, a window is broken, or if it is
moved or tilted (for example, with a tow truck or jack). To turn the tilt/ intrusion detectionsystems on or
off, touch Controls > Settings >
Safety & Security > Tilt/Intrusion.
Note: If you plan to leave something that
moves, such as a dog, inside your locked
Model X, remember to turn
off the tilt/
intrusion system. Any type of motion detected inside Model X activates the siren.
Note: To turn on Tilt/Intrusion, the Alarm must
be ON.
