Install the external Siren
Before final installation, find a location in the engine compartment where
the siren has the best opportunity to transmit the alarm sound to the
outside when the hood is closed.
If the engine has been running for more than 10 minutes, there is a
risk of burns. Allow the engine and other parts in the engine
compartment to cool down for at least 30 minutes before starting to
install the external siren.
Loose connectors result in excessive voltage drop and may cause
over heated wires and melted insulation, which can lead to electrical
fires. Reverse polarity connections (positive to negative) will blow the
fuse in the connection cable and may permantly damage the external
siren.
Mounting the siren in the engine compartment make sure that the ties
are secured and the siren is not connected with movable parts. The
siren must be mounted with sufficient distance to rotating parts.
DO NOT lay the connection cable to the battery in such a way that it
runs past hot engine parts where the insulation can melt and cause a
short circuit or fire.
DO NOT lay the connection cable to the battery in such a way that it
runs past moving parts in which it can get caught.
Ensure that connection cable is coiled up and securely fastened in
the engine compartment with cable ties.
DO NOT touch postiv and negative terminal of the vehicle battery at
the same time. It may result to cause electrocution.
