Question 'Chirp' when locking/unlocking car?

My wife's BMW 530i does this, can my 2004 C240 be programmed to do?

If so, can I do this with the on-board settings or do I have to take it to the dealer?

The chirp is okay, I have. Nice for me b/c I know it's locked when I walk away. Nowhere near as cool as the BMW eeeewwweeeeeyooooooop, though. More like an annoying "BEEP BEEP BEEP," same as the Lights Still on alarm.
