Newbie questions

I've tried searching, but as a new owner of an R18 FE, I haven't been able to answer all my questions - apologies if I didn't use the "Search" properly.

1. Is there a "setting" I can access that makes a sound (beep, chirp, buzz, cough, anything) when I activate or deactivate the factory alarm? The manual says it exists - but I can't find it - it does flash the indicators.
2. First day - I managed to pick up a stone chip (from a truck) on the fork - is there a product (pen maybe) that others have found works well to "fix" such things? It's not huge, but it is back to metal.
3. I live in an apartment block, so manoeuvring in the carpark is required - I have a rear wheel paddock stand that allowed me to rotate my old bike anywhere ( it has 3 casters). Problem is, it attaches to the bike using "bobbins" on the swing-arm. That won't work on the R18 - any recommendations for a good quality trolly / dolly / movable stand..........?

I'm sure I'll have more questions - but thanks in advance for your help with these questions.

1. The dealership programmed my alarm, which removed the chirp when activated; I can hear the lock servos for the side bags activate, plus my directionals blink. (2022 R18 B)

2. I used an Audi touch up paint pen to address a scuff mark on my frame, which was a perfect match; I've since had lower leg wind protection plastic parts painted using the manufacturer paint code that also was a perfect match. The body shop gave me a small jar of left over paint from the job to use as a touch tool.

3. I used the KERN-STABI X518, you can order it with dolly swizzle wheels in order to move it around on the floor.

Hope this helps...
