6. Mounting Components
6.1 Siren
1. Mount the siren in suitable location under the hood that will not interfere with
the functionality of the vehicle and away from source of extreme heat (i.e.:
exhaust manifold).
2. Make sure the siren cannot be easily accessed from underneath the vehicle or
through the grill.
3. Face the siren facing downward, so water does not accumulate inside the siren
housing.
4. It is recommended to ground the siren at the same location of the alarm main
unit, not at the siren bracket.
5. Always run wires from under the hood to the cabin area of the vehicle through
the center of a grommet. Running wires along bare metal can cause chaffing
on the wire, leading up to a possible short.
6. Camouflage the siren wires with black tape and/or split tubing.
6.2 Main Unit
1. Mount the main unit high up within the dash, where it requires removing under
dash panels to access the main unit.
2. Make sure the main unit is away from sources of heat, such as the heater core.
3. Verify that none of the wiring for the main unit will get tangled up in the steering
column and/or pedals.
4. Be sure to wire tie the main unit into place to prevent the main unit from being
easily removed or pulled down.
5. Before mounting the main unit, make sure to test all functions of the system and
complete all system programming.
6.3 Dual Stage Shock Sensor
1. Mount the shock sensor in the interior of the vehicle, not in the engine
compartment. The shock sensor can be mounted with wire ties or screwed in.
Do not double side tape the shock sensor in place, as the tape will eventually
lose its adhesion.
2. Make sure the shock sensor is away from sources of heat, such as the heater
core.
3. Verify that none of the wiring for the shock sensor will get tangled up in the
steering column and/or pedals.
