LOCKING AND ARMING THE ALARM.
CAUTION: No modifications or
additions should be made to the
anti-theft system. Such changes could
cause the system to malfunction.
LOCK CONFIRMATION
If you are uncertain whether the vehicle is
locked and armed (either by single or double
locking), press either the Smart Key lock
button or, if Keyless entry is fitted, touch an
exterior door handle lock sensor. The hazard
warning lamps will flash once to indicate and
confirm the current lock status.
There are two levels of security:
ꢀ
Single locking. With all doors and tailgate
closed, press the lock button on the Smart
Key once, to Single lock the vehicle and
activate the perimeter alarm. The alarm
LED in the instrument panel will start to
flash and the hazard warning lamps will
flash once to confirm locking. Power fold
mirrors will fold in (if enabled).
Note: If the vehicle is not already locked and
armed, pressing the lock button will single lock
the vehicle. Press again to double lock, if
required.
ꢀ
Double locking. A second press within
three seconds will Double lock the vehicle
and activate the full alarm system. The
hazard warning lamps will flash a second
time to confirm the enhanced Double lock
state. An audible confirmation may also be
given. The audible warning can be
set/disabled via Audible Lock Warning in
the Vehicle Settings menu. See 56,
VEHICLE INFORMATION AND SETTINGS
MENU.
SINGLE LOCKING
Single locking secures the vehicle and prevents
the doors from being opened from outside. The
doors may still be unlocked and opened using
the interior door locks and release levers. In
this state, only the perimeter (exterior) alarm is
activated. When the vehicle is Single locked
and the alarm is armed, the alarm will sound if:
ꢀ
The bonnet, tailgate or a door is opened.
The vehicle will not lock if a door, the
tailgate or the bonnet aperture is open,
or the ignition is ON. No lamps will flash
and if the lock request is via the Smart
Key, there will be an audible mislock
warning.
In some markets where a battery backed
sounder is fitted the following actions will also
sound the alarm:
ꢀ
ꢀ
The vehicle battery is disconnected.
An attempt is made to disconnect the alarm
siren.
Ensure that the Smart Key does not
remain in the vehicle prior to closure. If
the vehicle is in an area of localised RF
interference or the Smart Key is
shielded by metal objects, the vehicle
may close and lock with no means of
opening again.
Note: Single locking should be used in
circumstances such as travelling on a ferry, if
pets are to be left in the vehicle, or if a window
must be left open.
Remove any additional Smart Keys
from the vehicle before locking.
