Ignition on.
Read off the cause of the alarm by clicking on the VCT2000 symbol.

The alarm can be deployed by up to 12 different components in the car, depending on the equipment level. Each time the alarm is deployed, information is saved which makes it easier to determine the reason for deployment. Click on the VCT2000 symbol to find out which components deployed the alarm. Other information obtained is the time when the alarm deployed.

NOTE: The alarm occurrences are not presented in chronological order. Read off the Actual time and Time parameters to determine the last time the alarm deployed. The parameter in Actual time gives a reference value which displays how long the internal clock in the central electronic module (CEM) has calculated at the time of the read off. The value of Actual time minus the value in Time gives the number of days since the last alarm.
