BEFORE DRIVING
ELECTRICAL SECURITY SYSTEM
SPECIAL FEATURE :
1. Theft detection & Panic Alarm
Once the system is armed, the system can sense/detect
irregularity by the following conditions:
• Through key in sensor (any unauthorized insertion of
key in the Ignition Lock)
• Through opening of door
Once an irregularity is sensed, the system triggers and
audible and visual alarm of about 30 seconds.
To stop the alarm press Unlock push-button of remote
unit, the audio alarm will stop, all doors will unlock and
system will disarm.
2. Limited Alarm Cycle
This facility is designed to minimize any environmental
disturbance in confirmity with the regulations in force in
many countries. The system is equipped with a software
that limits the number of repeated alarm cycles
generated by any detectors to a maximum of 10 per
arming period. This means the alarm will trigger for 30
seconds in case any theft attempt is made on the vehicle
and after that the audio alarm will automatically stop. If
further theft attempt is detected (i.e. the alarm will again
trigger for 30 seconds. After 10 such cycles of 30
seconds each, no alarm triggering will take place. It will
be reinstated the next time the system is armed.
3. Status Memory
In the event that the vehicle battery supply is
disconnected and then reconnected, the internal
memory of the system remembers the armed/disarmed
state it was previously in.
4. Automatic Activation of the Engine Immobiliser
The function of engine immobilisation is vital to the
security of a vehicle. Therefore, its activation has been
made automatic (”passive”). That is : the engine of your
vehicle will be immobilised automatically even if you
forget to arm the system via the remote control in the
following cases :
a) If the key is removed from ignition switch, then if any
door is opened but not closed the immobiliser will auto
arm after approx 5 minutes from the door opening.
b) If the key is removed from the Ignition switch, any
door is opened and all doors are then closed, then the
immobiliser will auto arm after approx. 2 minutes of last
door closing.
