Can't make sense of the handbook, it says 'as soon as the vehicle is locked press the button on the remote within 10 seconds' - presumably it means press the lock button again but I've tried this and all it seems to do is trigger the locking mechanism again and the alarm indicator still flashes on the rear view mirror.



Also I'm a little OCD and often press the lock button a couple of times anyway....

I follow the procedure described in the handbook; I press the lock button on the remote, remove my finger from it, wait a second or two and press & release it again. The alarm indicator stays on for a couple of seconds after the second press of the button, then reverts to flashing as normal.

Try it and then try and rock the car & see what happens?
