The red LED under the internal rear-view mirror indicates the presence of the alarm and, depending on how it flashes, provides information on the arming status. By pressing the closing button on the remote control, the volumetric anti-lifting alarm is activated and the LED flashes slowly. If the closing button is pressed within 30 "of the first press, the anti-lifting function is deactivated (useful in the case of towing on a tow truck or transport on a ship) and the LED flashes for a few seconds faster to indicate the command has been received. when the alarm is triggered, the siren sounds for 30 ", the 4 arrows flash for 5 minutes and the LED flashes quickly until the alarm is deactivated with the remote control.
