In your 2018 car you could have turned off the volumetric sensor using the steering wheel controlled menus and still used the rest of the alarm and deadlocks normally, does that work in the newer model?

 

Thank you for replying. I think I have found the answer, whick I'll post here for the benefit of others;

When the vehicle is single or double locked, the alarm sensors arm. The alarm sensors comprise:

1. A tilt sensor to detect if the vehicle is titled or raised.
2. An interior motion sensor to detect movement within the vehicle.

There is now however an "Ask on Exit" option

The Ask on Exit feature allows the user to set an alarm sensor prompt in the instrument panel.

To turn the Ask on Exit feature on and off:

1. Touch the settings icon.
2. Select Vehicle.
3. Select Safety and Security.
4. Touch the Ask on Exit toggle to switch on or off.

When turned on, the Ask on Exit feature displays a message in the instrument panel. Press the OK button on the steering wheel controls to activate or deactivate the alarm sensors.

 

hi, i read your response with interest, i keep having to set mine after every trip, is this because i am not pressing the OK button. if so will this feature remain on all journeys please.

 

I’ve had this set a few times, but I was never able to actually get it to switch off, as the OK button seems completely unresponsive. Or at least I’ve never seen any acknowledgment…?

 

On mine, the message now comes up on the dash display when I turn the car off and by pressing-in the selector wheel control on the steering wheel the message changes to alarm off. I've not actually tried with a dog inside yet!"
