Car locking horn

For the first week that I had the Rx8, everytime I pressed the lock button on the keyfob twice, the cars horn would honk, now no matter how many times I press it, there is no horn. Does anyone have an explanation for this?

Bassik I have done this also. Got used to pressing lock twice to activate the deadlock so did this on the unlock button a couple of times and same thing happened. Lotsa noise! I checked the manual and it is the panic button/anti mugging feature. All quite normal.
