Installing the alarm system
6.5
Possible operating states
The alarm system has the following operating modes:
• Stand-by
The alarm system is constantly on stand-by as soon as it is installed and correctly
connected. However, it does not trigger the alarm when in stand-by.
• Activation time
The alarm system has an activation time of approx. 40 seconds.
As an optical indicator of the activation time, the LED is illuminated on the
electronic key base (fig. 4 1).
• Activated
If the alarm system is activated, it can trigger an alarm. This happens if someone
breaks into the door, opens the bonnet or enters the vehicle interior. If you wish
to drive off, you must first deactivate the alarm system. The system is then in
stand-by mode.
As an optical indicator for activation, the LED flashes on the electronic key base
(fig. 4 1).
• Alarm triggered
When an alarm has been triggered, it is indicated by optical and acoustic signals.
