Purpose of the System
The anti-theft alarm system (DWA) has the purpose of indicating attempts to break into the vehicle, or to tamper with it. Acoustic and visual alarms are used to draw attention to the vehicle and frighten off any would be car thief or vandals.
A distinction must be made between the DWA and the Electronic Immobilizer System (EWS). The purpose of the anti-theft alarm system is to deter a thief from entering the vehicle. The purpose of the EWS system is to prevent a thief from driving the vehicle off under it's own power.
