Door or luggage compartment lid open buzzer

If an opening element (door, luggage compartment or bonnet) is open or poorly closed, the warning light appears on the instrument panel. As soon as the vehicle reaches approximately 6 mph (10 km/h), the "WARNING: Boot Open" or "WARNING: Door Open" message (depending on the opening element) appears on the instrument panel accompanied by a beep.
Tip
Every time one of the doors is opened, the window lowers by a few centimetres to facilitate door movement. The window closes as soon as the door is closed.
If there is any ice or snow preventing the window from lowering when one of the doors is opened, this ice or snow must be removed to free the window before the door is closed.
If you need to disconnect the battery (breakdown etc.), lower the windows to make handling the doors easier whilst the battery is disconnected.

Lights-on reminder audible alarm

If you have switched off the ignition and left the lights switched on, a warning buzzer will sound when a door is opened.

Card reminder buzzer

When the driver's door is opened a beep will sound if the card is left in the reader and the "Remove card" message appears on the instrument panel, accompanied by a beep.
