its the ultra sonic sensors on the inside of the car that are too sensitive its a common fault on saxo's.

u could try replacing them, personaly a just upgraded to a cat1 system.

in teh mean time press and hold the ultrasonics button on the dash until the light stays on red, that will disarm them and stop it going off

i had a the same problem with mine! citroen told me to make sure i close all the vents in my car before i lock it as the alarms are so sensitive the slightest gust of wind out of the vent would set it off! has worked so far! well its only ben a week so there is still time for it to go off again!

You can also stick a bit of electrical tape or something over one or both of the sensors and that does the trick. I personally just hold the button down.

citroen disconnected my senors for me, because person who had the car before me tampered with the alarm siren and broke it so all i had was indicators flashing and no noise lol
