    The movement sensors inside have probably found a fly buzzing around.
    Or you have left a window cracked and the wind has blown the seat belt.

    I used to always disable my alarm on my RRC when I went camping as I would leave the windows down a bit for air circulation and forget to close them , only for the whole campsite to be woken.

    On my D2 the PO had the alarm disabled so no problem.

    ... or to lock the door with the key not the fob, that keeps the volumetric alarm disabled and all the rest active... the volumetric alarm detects air movement in the cabin so as said even a fly or moth trapped within or if it's windy and it's not sealed well or sunroof/window not closed well would trigger it

    If you lock your car with ANY window open then the alarm will go off after a while.
    put the windows ALL the way up.
    Works on mine.

    Mine does this with the windows up. It only happens on hot days though.
