COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION
Adjusting the Shock Sensor: Gently turn the adjustment knob counterclockwise to turn down the sensitivity
and turn clockwise to turn up sensitivity. Close the hood and trunk lids, and arm the alarm . Wait 6 seconds
for the accessories trigger zone to stabilize, then test the sensitivity adjust as needed
CAUTION: Never perform this test on the vehicle's glass, as you may break the window.
WARNING ! Setting the sensitivity too high can cause false alarms due to noise vibrations from passing trucks
and heavy equipment. To decrease sensitivity, turn the adjustment screw counter clockwise.
Wire Dressing: Always wrap the alarm wires in convoluted tubing, or with a spiral wrap of electrical tape.
Secure these looms along the routing using cable ties. This will ensure that the alarm wires are not
damaged by falling onto hot or sharp moving surfaces in the vehicle.
