Security System
Theft-Deterrent System (Without the Intrusion Sensor) (Some Models)
If the theft deterrent system detects an inappropriate entry into the vehicle, which could result in the vehicle or its contents being stolen, the alarm alerts the surrounding area of an abnormality by sounding the horn and flashing the hazard warning lights.
The system will not function unless it's properly armed. So when you leave the vehicle, follow the arming procedure correctly.
Operation
System triggering conditions
The horn sounds intermittently and the hazard warning lights flash for about 30 seconds when the system is triggered by any one of the following:

-
Forcing open a door, the bonnet or the liftgate/boot lid.
-
Opening the bonnet by operating the bonnet release handle.

If the system is triggered again, the lights and horn will activate until the driver's door or the liftgate/boot lid is unlocked with the transmitter.
