simple. maybe u leave the windows open a little bit for a dog.

u can switch it off. On my vts i had to switch mines off all the time as the wind was coming through the vents and setting my alarm off

It turns of the interior sensors for the alarm

the alarm will still sound if a door/bonnet/boot is opened and the imobiliser will also still work

RTFM ;)

I ain't got one in mine, have to press the lock button on the fob twice...which annoyingly also disables the deadlocks too!!! :confused:

are you sure you are getting this right ?

AFAIK pressing the lock button twice activates the deadlocks but deactivates the interior sensors

sensor button behind drivers seat is only for mk3

I've tried it mate, locked myself in to try it out. One press lock everything is activated, two presses and I was able to escape...but it that way anyways. lol. I completed the thread in the Leon section, as like I said I tried it out! :rolleyes: *I'm sad like that*
