At switch on, the voltage across the capacitor is zero and the output is at +12 volts.
The buzzer is not energised.

After a time, determined by the values of C and R3, the voltage of the inverting input rises above that of the non inverting input.

The output goes to minus 12 volts and the buzzer is energised.
