Security System

Full Alarm
Once armed any of the following circumstances will create a full alarm state and the sounder will operate:
- Opening a door (after seven seconds)
- Opening the trunk with the key (after seven seconds)
- If the ignition key is turned to position I or II
- Lifting or tilting the vehicle (if an inclination sensor is fitted)
- Pressing the key-ring transmitter headlamp button three times - Panic Alarm
- Opening the hood

Error tone
The sounder gives a short, high-pitched warble whenever one of the following conditions is present:
- The trunk is not closed when an attempt is made to arm the security system
- The key is in the ignition switch when a transmitter button is pressed
- If there is a failure within the alarm system the error tone will sound when the vehicle is disarmed
- If any door is open when an attempt to arm the security system is made.

Audible Signals
An audible alarm will sound when:
- The Valet switch is pressed with the trunk closed, signifying that valet mode is active.
- In Valet mode and the interior trunk release switch is pressed.
- The key is in the ignition switch when a transmitter button is pressed
- Opening a door when security is armed (door unlock warning and audible ticking)

Active Arming of the Security System
Active arming, arm on central lock and key barrel arm are programmable feature. If doors, hood, or trunk are closed, the key is not in the ignition and active arming is enabled, the security system can be armed by either the key barrel or remote transmitter Arming will be prevented if door, hood or trunk lid are open and/or the key is in the ignition - an error tone will sound.

Arming When Centrally Locked
The vehicle will arm when it is centrally locked via the remote transmitter or from the key barrel. If a door, hood or the trunk lid is open an error tone is emitted.

On arming, the direction indicators give a short flash and a single audible chirp will be emitted. The status LED in the gear selector surround will illuminate and then flash to indicate perimeter sensing.

Active Disarming of the Security System
The security system will be disarmed and the alarm stopped if the remote transmitter is used or if the key is turned in the door lock.

Arming and Disarming from the Key Barrel
To arm, the key is turned to the unlocked position and then to the locked position within 3 seconds. To disarm, the key is turned to the unlock position.

Passive Arming/Disarming of the Security System
Passive arming will occur after 30 seconds has elapsed with all doors, hood and trunk closed and the key out of the ignition. To disarm, either the remote transmitter unlock button or the ignition key will be used.

Perimeter Sensing
If the system is armed, an alarm will be tripped when a door, the trunk lid or the hood becomes open or if the ignition key is turned to position I or II.

Battery Tampering Alarm and Restart Procedure
If the battery is disconnected when the security system is armed, disarmed or in the full alarm state, the security system will automatically resume the vehicle state before disconnection when the battery is reconnected.

Security Antenna
The security antenna is incorporated into the backlight. The convertible security antenna is located in the right-hand side quarter casing. Both are hardwired to the SLM.
