In retrospect I guess I'm happy we didn't get into the car without the key. I assume the alarm would have sounded if we opened the door and the key wasn't in the trunk. Does anyone know if the alarm 'times out' or would it just drain the battery all the way down?
I'm working from memory here (which, with me, is highly suspect) but I seem to recall that the manual for my 986 says the alarm sounds for about 3 minutes.
