The alarm LED is located on top of the dashboard. The LED is in the same housing as the sun sensor and twilight sensor. The LED is directly connected to the central electronic module (CEM). It is used to indicate alarm status.

When the alarm is activated, the central electronic module (CEM) checks all units and sensors. If everything is OK the LED starts to flash once a second.

If the alarm is triggered the LED starts to flash quickly, approximately 6 times a second. When the vehicle is unlocked, the LED continues to flash until the ignition key is inserted into the ignition switch.
