If you shake the key fob real fast for about 25-30 seconds it will play a jingle.

We dont have the panic alarm in the UK, ppl would complain about the noise , thats why are alarms dont chirp when locking/unlocking and the alarm siren is on a timer, it shuts off after so many seconds then sounds again after a brief pause.

It's true, in fact on the UK cars the initial alarm sound is a polite cough followed by a harrumph
