Locks & Alarm

If the alarm is triggered
The alarm, once activated, will be triggered by any one of the
following actions:
• Operation of the starter switch.
• Activation of the driver or passenger door switches (on
opening).
• Opening of the tailgate.
• Opening of the bonnet.
• Triggering of the volumetric sensor
* (interior space
protection).
If the alarm is triggered, the horn will sound for 30 seconds,
followed by a period of 15 seconds silence. This will be repeated
for 10 cycles or until the alarm is switched off or reset.
Once the 10 cycles are completed, the alarm will need to be reset
before the detectors can trigger the alarm for a further 10 cycles.
To silence the alarm, press either button on the handset, or
unlock/lock the driver’s door using the key.
Interior space protection*
Never activate interior space protection if passengers or
animals are to be left inside the car - any movement will
activate the alarm.
On cars fitted with interior space protection, twin sensors situated
at the top of the door pillar, monitor the interior space and activate
the alarm if an intrusion into the passenger compartment is
detected (entry gained through a window or sunroof, for
example). Interior space protection is activated automatically when
the alarm is armed using the handset. If it is necessary to keep
interior space protection inactive, use the key to arm the alarm.
Door sill locking buttons
Each door can be locked from inside the car by pushing down the
locking button on the door sill.
NOTE: When the driver's door locking button is operated, the central
locking system (where fitted) operates all door locks together.
