Peugeot 308: Alarm

(Depending on version)

System which protects and provides a deterrent against theft and break-ins.

Exterior perimeter monitoring

The system checks for opening of the vehicle.

The alarm is triggered if anyone tries to open a door, the boot or the bonnet, for example.

Interior volumetric monitoring

The system checks for any variation in volume in the passenger compartment.

The alarm is triggered if anyone breaks a window, enters the passenger compartment or moves inside the vehicle.

Anti-tilt monitoring

The system checks for any change in the attitude of the vehicle.

The alarm goes off if the vehicle is lifted or moved.

When the vehicle is parked, the alarm will not be triggered if the vehicle is knocked.

Rechargeable hybrid or electric vehicles

Depending on version, interior volumetric and anti-tilt monitoring may be reduced or even suspended during temperature preconditioning sequences.

Self-protection function

The system checks whether any of its components are out of service.

The alarm is triggered if the battery, the central control or the siren wiring is put out of service or damaged.

The exterior perimeter monitoring is activated after 5 seconds and the interior volumetric monitoring after 45 seconds.

Locking the vehicle with exterior perimeter monitoring only

Deactivate the interior volumetric and anti-tilt monitoring to avoid the unwanted triggering of the alarm, in certain cases such as:

To take effect, this deactivation must be carried out after each time the ignition is switched off.
