Interior monitor and anti-tow alarm
If movements are detected in the vehicle interior when the vehicle is locked, the interior monitoring triggers an
alarm.
The anti-tow alarm will be triggered if the vehicle is lifted.
Switching on the interior monitoring system and anti-tow alarm
—Lock the vehicle.
—When the anti-theft alarm is switched on, interior monitoring and the anti-tow alarm are also active.
Depending on the equipment, the function of interior monitoring may be impaired if a load guard is used.
Temporarily switching off the interior monitoring system and anti-tow alarm
The interior monitoring system and anti-tow alarm can be switched off temporarily in theOpening and closing
submenu in the Infotainment system (→ Vehicle settings menu). The interior monitoring and anti-towing alarm are
deactivated until the next time the vehicle is locked.
The interior monitoring system and anti-tow alarm can also be switched off in the Exit Vehicle menu. The ignition

False alarm risks of the interior monitoring system
Interior monitoring can only work properly if all the vehicle doors are fully closed. Comply with legal regulations.
A false alarm can be triggered in the following situations:
—If one or more windows are fully or partly open.
—If lightweight items are left in the vehicle, such as loose pieces of paper or items hung from the interior mirror.
—If the vibration alarm of a mobile telephone is switched on.
Permanent deactivation of the interior monitoring and anti-tow alarm is not
possible.
If doors or the boot lid are still open when the anti-theft alarm is activated, only the anti-theft alarm is
activated. Interior monitoring and the anti-tow alarm are not activated until all doors and the boot lid are
closed.
The SAFELOCK is also deactivated when the interior monitoring and anti-tow alarm are switched
off.
