I wouldn't recommend leaving the car door open (even slightly) while lifting the car with a jack.

There is a way to disable the anti- tilt sensor on the alarm ( It's in the manual 
) for if you take the car on a ferry, or similar situation.
Press the lock button on the remote control again as soon as the car is locked. The indicator lights up briefly then continues to flash steadily. The tilt alarm sensor and interior movement detector are switched off until the next time the car is unlocked and locked.
Unless it's a Europe/U.S thing...
