Alarm system
The concept
The vehicle alarm system responds to:
▷ Opening of a door, the hood or the trunk
lid.
▷ Movements in the vehicle.
▷ Changes in the vehicle tilt, e.g., during at‐
tempts to steal a wheel or when towing the
car.
▷ Interruptions in battery voltage.
The alarm system briefly indicates tampering:
▷ By sounding an acoustic alarm.
▷ By switching on the hazard warning sys‐
tem.
▷ By flashing the high beams.
Arming and disarming the alarm
system
General information
When you lock or unlock the vehicle, either
with the remote control, Comfort Access or at
the door lock the alarm system is armed or dis‐
armed at the same time.
Door lock and armed alarm system
Unlocking via the door lock will trigger the
alarm on some country-specific versions.
In order to terminate this alarm, unlock vehicle
