Arming and disarming the alarm system
When you lock or unlock the vehicle, either with the remote control or at the door lock, the alarm system is armed or disarmed at the same time.
Door lock and armed alarm system
Unlocking via the door lock will trigger the alarm on some market-specific versions.
This alarm can only be ended by pressing the button on the remote control.
Tailgate and armed alarm system
The tailgate can be opened using the remote control, even if the alarm system is armed.
Press the button on the remote
control.
After the tailgate is closed, it is locked and monitored again by the alarm system. The hazard warning system flashes once.
In some market-specific versions, the tailgate can only be opened using the remote control if the vehicle was unlocked first.
