Anti-Theft Alarm System E63/E64: Introduction

The anti-theft alarm system (DWA) detects and reports attempts at intrusion and tampering with the vehicle.

New features  for anti -theft alarm on E63 and E64 vehicles:

• For the first time, not only the tilt alarm sensor, but also the software for the anti -theft alarm is integrated in the emergency power siren (SINE = siren and tilt alarm sensor). The DWA control unit used to date is no longer installed.
• The vehicle interior is monitored by microwave sensors.

Advantage:

The microwave sensors can be installed in hidden locations.

The interior monitoring function works, for example, even when the side windows are open.

• The DWA control unit in the emergency power siren is connected to the microwave sensors by a sub -bus.
• When the boot-lid lock is mechanically unlocked with the key, the DWA alarm is triggered.

If an attempt is made to break into the vehicle and to enter the interior, the DWA alarm is triggered. The tilt alarm sensor (integrated in the emergency power siren) monitors the vehicle's tilt. The tilt alarm sensor detects if the vehicle is raised or towed away.

The DWA alarm gives both acoustic and visual warnings:

• Acoustic alarm via the emergency power siren (interval tone for 30 seconds)
• Visual alarm via lighting system (hazard warning lights)

The alarm can be encoded according to the country concerned.
