flashes from the car's direction indicators confirm that the alarm has been deactivated and that all doors are unlocked.

Alarm
The visual alarm signal is given by flashing all turn signals and turning on the interior lighting for approximately 5
minutes.
Temporarily turning off the accessory alarm sensor(s)
In certain situations it may be desirable to turn off the accessory inclination and movement alarm sensors if, for
example, you drive your vehicle onto a ferry where the rocking of the boat could trigger the alarm or if a pet is left in
the vehicle with the doors locked.
Turn the ignition key to position II and then back to position 0 and remove it from the ignition switch.
Press the button (1). The LED in the button will remain on for one minute after the key has been removed from the
ignition switch or until the car is locked.
