The emergency power siren emits the acoustic DWA alarm. In addition to the DWA alarm, the emergency power
siren can also emit an acoustic confirmation signal when the system is activated or deactivated (can be set on
the Central Information Display (CID) and controller).

DWA LED
The DWA LED is on the bottom of the inside rearview mirror.
The DWA LED gives a visual indication of the status of the anti-theft alarm.
The DWA LED is directly actuated by the DWA control unit in the emergency power siren via a wire.
The following indications are possible:
•
DWA LED off: DWA is deactivated.
•
DWA LED flashes (frequency = 0.5 Hz): DWA is activated.
•
DWA LED flashes with a frequency of 2 Hz for 10 seconds and then continues with a frequency of 0.5 Hz:
DWA is activated but a door or hatch is not closed or a microwave sensor is defective.
•
DWA LED flashes with a frequency of 2 Hz for 5 minutes and then continues with a frequency of 0.5 Hz:
Alarm.
•
DWA LED lights up for 2 seconds and then flashes with a frequency of 0.5 Hz: The microwave sensors
and the tilt alarm sensor are deactivated.
System functions
The anti-theft alarm system incorporates the following functions:
-
Activating and deactivating
-
DWA alarm triggering (alarm-trigger signal)
-
Undervoltage recognition, overvoltage recognition, car battery monitoring (positive and negative cables)
-
Monitoring of sub-bus
-
Deactivating interior motion sensor and tilt monitoring
-
Emergency function for acoustic DWA alarm

Activating and deactivating
The anti-theft alarm system is activated when the central locking is locked/secured. Locking/securing requires:
•
Drivers door to be opened and closed after terminal 15 is switched OFF.
•
The emergency power siren is then immediately activated.
•
3 seconds after activation, the door and hatch contacts are monitored. This is conditional on the contacts
being in their rest position (doors and hatches closed).
•
The DWA LED starts to flash as a visual acknowledgement. The hazard warning lights flash once.
•
Depending on the national version, a short acoustic warning tone may also sound from the emergency
power siren (see national version).
•
After the DWA has been activated, and after all doors and flaps have been closed, the microwave sensors
start to monitor the interior. The interior can be monitored after approx. 20 seconds.
•
The monitoring of the interior is interrupted if the side windows and/or the sliding/tilting sunroof are closed
using the convenience closing function.
Like the interior monitoring, the tilt monitoring does not start until the doors and hatches are closed. When it is
activated, the tilt alarm sensor first conducts a 30 second long reference run. Tilt monitoring does not start until
the reference run has been completed.
