You have 15 secs from turning the ignition off to disconnecting the battery otherwise the alarm sounds. Best to slacken the battery negative in readiness, turn the ignition off & then remove the neg/earth lead.

Windows ..... press & hold each switch in the up posn till you hear a click

Roof ..... if applic ..... turn roof switch to each major position, push & hold till all movement stops

If all else fails Please read the manual ..... it is in there  ;) ;) ;)

If you have a booster or a spare batt and jump leads, you can change the batt without worrying about the alarm and loosing codes
