if the alarm is armed (including while the alarm is activated), and will draw current
from the vehicle's electrical system only if an attempt is made to start the vehicle.
CONNECTION: To interrupt the vehicle's starter circuit, the starter wire must be
located and cut. It is recommended that this connection be done as close to the
ignition switch as possible. Use a voltmeter, not a test light, to find the correct wire,
which is the wire from the ignition switch to the starter solenoid. CAUTION! Avoid
the airbag circuit! Improper use of a test light can cause deployment of the airbag,
which may result in bodily injury! Test lights can also damage on-board computers
and associated sensors. The starter wire will read +12 Volts only when ignition key
is in "start" position (cranking the engine). Cut this wire at a suitable location.
Confirm that this is the correct wire by turning the ignition switch to the "start"

Installation

Mounting the Control Unit and Siren Assembly: Find a location in the engine
compartment away from the extreme heat of the engine and manifolds. A suit-
able location will offer a firm mounting surface, will also allow sound dispersion
out of the engine compartment, and not be accessible to a thief. The control unit
and siren assembly must be pointed downward to avoid moisture collecting in the
unit and to enhance sound dispersal. The unit's wires should be securely con-
nected to the appropriate vehicle wires with the proper terminals, connectors, or
by soldering and tape or heat shrink tubing for insulation. Wires routed through
panels such as the firewall should always be protected by an existing or added
grommet. A vehicle security system is also more effective if its wiring is wrapped
or enclosed in a protective sleeve which matches that already found in the ve-
hicle protecting the factory wiring.
