ELECTRICAL
ALARM SYSTEM OPERATION
Arming alarm
Anti-theft alarm indicator light
A RED indicator light on the instrument panel
indicates the status of the alarm system. When the
alarm is armed successfully, the light flashes rapidly.
After 10 seconds, the light adjusts to a slower
frequency and continues flashing as an anti-theft
deterrent.
To arm the alarm, aim handset at vehicle and press
the RH button (Padlock symbol). Provided all doors
and or apertures are closed, the direction indicator
lamps will flash three times to confirm that the alarm is
armed. All security features previously described will
be active.
If the light fails to illuminate during the rapid flash
phase, this indicates a ’mislock’ (door or the bonnet
not fully closed or key in starter switch). If this occurs,
the indicator light will still flash at slower frequency as
an anti-theft deterrent.
Once armed, the alarm will sound if a door or the
bonnet is opened, or if movement is detected inside
the vehicle.
Disarming alarm
The indicator light will illuminate continuously under
the following conditions:
Within range of the vehicle, briefly press the LH
(Plain) button on the handset; the direction indicator
lamps will flash once to indicate that the alarm has
been disarmed and the engine re-mobilised.
1. Alarm system armed and immobilised with
ignition ’on’ or driver’s door open.
2. Engine immobilised with ignition ’on’ or driver’s
door open.
NOTE: In some territories, the interior
lamps will illuminate when the alarm is
disarmed.
Interior protection
If the direction indicators fail to flash when the
alarm is armed:
Interior protection is activated automatically when the
alarm system is armed; twin sensors inside the
vehicle monitor interior space and will activate the
alarm if an intrusion is detected.
This indicates that a door or the bonnet is not fully
closed, in which case the alarm will be partially armed
and engine immobilised, but interior protection will not
be active.
However, if passengers or animals are to be left inside
the vehicle, or if a window or sunroof is to be left
open, the alarm must be armed with the interior
protection DISABLED as follows:
Once the open door or bonnet is closed, the direction
indicators will flash three times and the alarm will fully
arm as described previously.
To disable interior protection:
If the alarm sounds:
1. Open the driver’s door.
The vehicle horn and alarm sounder will operate
continuously for 30 seconds when the alarm is
triggered. The horn and alarm sounder can be
triggered up to three times.
2. Use the handset to arm the alarm in normal way.
3. Close the driver’s door (the direction indicator
lamps will flash three times and the anti-theft
indicator light commences flashing rapidly). The
alarm system is now armed with the interior
protection disabled.
To silence the alarm, press either handset button. If
the handset is inoperative, the alarm can only be
disarmed by entering the emergency key access
code, see Engine immobilisation override.
NOTE: Interior protection will not operate
until 15 seconds after the alarm is set.
