Panic Function

Information and verification, alarm

Symptom and function description
All alarm inputs are continuously monitored when the alarm is activated. The alarm is activated by pressing the LOCK button. A long flashing signal, from the vehicle's direction indicators, confirms that the alarm is activated and that the doors are locked. The alarm LED will start to flash directly after the system has been activated.
The alarm should trip when:
- Door, bonnet or boot lid are opened.
- The ignition switch is turned with a non-approved key or subjected to force.
- Movement detected in the passenger compartment (only applies if the vehicle is equipped with a movement sensor).
- The vehicle is lifted or towed away (only applies if the vehicle is equipped with a level movement sensor).
- Someone attempts to disconnect the siren or battery.
- The panic function is activated via the remote key.
The siren is used as the sound source for the alarm function. The siren includes an internal battery which is charged when the lights are on. The climate affects the life of the battery. The battery cannot be replaced as a single component. Consequently the siren should be replaced at regular intervals.

Hint: For more information, see Design and Function.

Verification
Check the different alarm system functions as follows:

Note! The alarm shall trip during each test, a siren shall sound and all direction indicators flash. It should be possible to deactivate the alarm using the remote key's unlock button or by inserting the remote key in the starter switch. A signal confirming alarm deactivation must be given by the direction indicators (two short flashes).

Testing the panic function

- The function is switched off by any button on the remote control or automatically after 25 seconds.
