This button will only be found in cars equipped with the optional inclination and/or movement sensors.
In certain situations it may be desirable to turn off the optional inclina-tion and movement alarm sensors

From the time the ignition key is turned from the Drive position (position II) until you lock the car, you
can press the button in the center console *. The LED in the switch will light up and a message will be
displayed in the text window to indicate that the sensors are disconnected.
The car can then be locked in the usual way to set the alarm.
