Yup you need to go to the dealer and have them change your settings from US to Netherlands.

Be advised you do lose the panic button feature by doing this.

Now that you mention it, I'm almost positive my C did as well when I bought it. I think there was a menu setting called 'audible lock' or something like that that I changed. I haven't noticed it on my CLK though.

lol, You wouldn't think I was lucky when the cops came knocking on my door at 5am because my alarm was going off and waking up the whole block (before I had a garage and it was on the street). Then I had to drive it around for an almost two hours with the alarm going off and people looking at me like I stole it. Then scratching a brand new 19" rim against the curb trying to double park half asleep.

They said it went bad. Don't remember the exact reason, I could look through my receipts if you need the info. I honestly don't remember how the old alarm functioned, it was only a month or two after buying the car.

Unfortunately for us europeans the beep is just not an option. The mechanic at the stealership told me its a north american thing for the car to beep when lock button pushed. Ive never seen this feature on this side of the atlantic so it wasnt a big surprise for me.

Sorry im no help to you U.S. folks
