Fig. 1 Side trim in open driver's door: Button for interior monitor/tow-away protection
Applies to vehicles: with anti-theft alarm system
When the vehicle is locked, the alarm will be triggered if movements are detected in the interior (e.g. by animals) or if the vehicle's inclination is changed (e.g. during transport). You can prevent the alarm from being triggered accidentally by switching off the interior monitor and/or tow-away protection.
Switch off the ignition and press the button Fig. 1 to deactivate the interior monitor and tow-away protection. The diode in the button will light up.
If you now lock the vehicle, the interior monitor and tow-away protection will remain deactivated until the next time a door is opened.
WARNING!
Do not leave anyone (especially children) in the car if it is locked from the outside and the deadlock mechanism* is activated: the doors and windows cannot then be opened from the inside. Locked doors could delay assistance in an emergency, potentially putting lives at risk.
