Antitheft alarm system
1
Indicator lamp in switch located in center console
The antitheft alarm is automatically armed or disarmed
with the remote control or any of your vehicle’s keys by
locking or unlocking the vehicle.
The antitheft alarm is armed within approx. 10 seconds
after locking the vehicle.
A blinking lamp (1) indicates that the alarm is armed.
Operation:
Once the alarm system has been armed, the exterior
vehicle lamps will flash and an alarm will sound when
someone:
• opens a door,
• opens the trunk,
• opens the hood,
• opens the storage compartment between the front
seats,
• attempts to raise the vehicle.
The alarm will last approximately 3 minutes in form of
flashing exterior lamps. At the same time an alarm will
sound for 30 seconds. The alarm will stay on even if, for
example, an opened door is immediately closed again. If
the alarm stays on for more than 20 seconds, an
emergency call is initiated automatically. See Tele Aid
on page 155.
The antitheft alarm system is switched off automatically
if the vehicle is unlocked with the electronic main key.
