Adjusting the Shock Sensor :
The sensitivity of the sensor is adjusted by turning the adjustment knob located on the side of the module
clockwise to increase and counterclockwise to decrease.
Gently turn the adjustment knob fully counterclockwise. ( DO NOT over turn this screw. Maximum rotation
for this adjustment is 270° ). Close the hood and trunk lids, and arm the alarm. Wait 6 seconds for the ac-
cessories trigger zone to stabilize, then firmly strike the rear bumper with the side of a closed fist considering
the amount of force required to break a window.
WARNING! Never perform this test on the vehicle’s glass, as you may break the window.
Turn the adjustment screw clockwise ( increasing sensitivity ) about ¼ turn and re-test.
Repeat this procedure until the alarm sounds. Ultimately, one firm strike to the rear bumper
will cause the alarm to trigger
CAUTION:
Setting the sensitivity too high can cause false alarms due to noise vibrations from passing
trucks and heavy equipment.
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.
Operation :
Take a few moments to check off the appropriate option boxes in the owner’s manual and to
fully explain the operation of the system to your customer.
