My Ride: Alpine White F11 520D SE 2013

I am jetting off on holiday for a while next week and am wondering what will happen if the car alarm goes off while I am away. I won't be there to deactivate/switch it off so what happens? Does it just stop after a while or does it continue?

thanks,

cojo

It should reset after one minute (not sure if this is adjustable or not). It's a "smart" alarm, so if it gets constant triggers from the same sensor it will bypass that sensor after a set number of alarm triggers. This way the alarm does not drain your battery. When you get back you can just look at the flashing light indicator, if it flashes erratically, you know the alarm was triggered while you were away.
