In the garage of your home

• Make sure no-one slips into the garage when you open the side door.
• Wait for the main door to close, both on entering and leaving, before pulling away. Set the timer to the minimum.
• Remember to lock the side door when you leave the garage on foot.
• Take the magnetic entry card or remote with you.
• Do not leave any valuables in the vehicle (credit cards, documents, cameras, laptop, etc).
• Lock the vehicle: make sure the windows are completely closed and switch on the alarm, if installed.

In public car parks

• Do not leave objects or parcels within view.
• Park, if possible, in a space near the street or within the line of sight of the attendant or the security cameras.
• Remember to leave the car locked and close all the windows properly.
• Take the ticket with you.

When parking in the street

• Do not leave objects inside the vehicle within view from the outside (clothes, bags, wallets, keys, credit cards, phones etc).
• On leaving the vehicle make sure the steering wheel is blocked and the windows completely closed.
• Activate the anti-theft devices in the vehicle (alarm, disconnects, steering lock, pedal lock, etc).

While you are driving

• Make sure the doors are locked and the windows closed, especially when you stop at traffic lights.
• Be wary of window washers, peddlers and beggars. Never open the windows or unlock the doors.
