[sean182]

hi i just recently bought a clio 182 (not cup) never got a car manual ive read all clio 182s have an alarm and was just wondering how i could check if my car has an alarm and also how u set the alrm does it just do it automatically when you lock the doors ?

providing it aint a inport and theres a flashing light near gear stick , lock car with remote then open door using key that should trigger it

no its not an import dont see any flashing light near the gearstick should the flashing light be beside the cigarrette lighter. i tried locking the door with the fob and opening with the key nuthing happened

has it any sensors on the door pillars?

Is the led there at all?, looks like a nipple mounted near the gear lever.

 

[sean182]

do the sensor look like small microphones.nope thers no led near the gearstick. i thought all clio 182s came with alrms

sit in it and lock it, wait for 30 secs or so then wave your arms around this should set it off.

it could quite possible be a uk spec self inported, itll show up as been uk model but wont have the alarm , in which case u should notify yer insurence or cheaper prolly to have the same standard alarm fitted
