Use the emergency key built into the fob to unlock the drivers door and then open the bonnet to get to the charging points. The alarm will go off as it has a separate power supply. Connect a charger and you should be able to lock/unlock which will reset the alarm with the bonnet open.

The alarm should go quiet after 30 secs and leave the hazards going.
