Alarm System and Theft Protection 263
Alarm system
The alarm system monitors the following alarm
contacts:
– Alarm contacts in doors, rear lid, rear window
and engine compartment lid.
– Passenger compartment monitoring system:
Movement in the interior when the vehicle is
locked (e.g. attempted theft after breaking
window).
– Inclination sensor: Tilting of the vehicle
(e.g. attempt to tow away the vehicle)
If one of these alarm contacts is interrupted, the
alarm horn sounds for approx. 30 seconds and
the hazard warning lights flash.
After 5 seconds of interruption, the alarm is trig-
gered again. This cycle is repeated ten times.
You can temporarily deactivate the passenger
compartment monitoring system and inclination
sensor separately on the multi-purpose display in
