Power Sounder Inclination
Sensor, and Intrusion Sensor
In addition to the standard
theft-deterrent system features, this
system also has an inclination
sensor and intrusion sensor.
The power sounder provides an
audible alarm which is different from
the vehicle's horn. It has its own
power source, and can sound an
alarm when the vehicle's battery is
compromised.
The inclination sensor can set off
the alarm if it senses movement of
the vehicle, such as a change in
vehicle orientation.
The intrusion sensor monitors the
vehicle interior, and can set off the
alarm it if senses an unauthorised
entry into the vehicle's interior. Do
not allow passengers or pets to
remain in the vehicle when the
intrusion sensor is activated.
Before arming the theft-deterrent
system and activating the intrusion
sensor:
Make sure all doors and
windows are completely closed.
Secure any loose items such as
a sunvisors.
Make sure there are no
obstructions blocking the
sensors in the front overhead
console.
