    Turn it off. Button on panel left of drivers seat. Its a sensor system and if something moves it goes off.

    My alarm freaks out randomly because of moving shadows and gentle breezes. I want to turn off the inside motion sensors but then i'm worried that the alarm won't go off if somebody is trying to steal my cd player.

    well, re-close EVERYTHING on your car, Hood,Trunk ect.. Windows open? if so, turn off the motion sensor. My alarm was being retarded for a while even if all the windows were closed and everything was shut. It did it when it first started getting warm and when it would rain, it has since then decided to grow up and stop being retarded. And honestly, unless you have an after market alarm jibber, not like it would wake you up anyway. Your window getting smashed would be louder than your alarm haha.
