INSTALLATION
CHECKLIST
You can install your system in just
three easy steps:
1. Mount the system.
2. Connect the system to power.
3. Train the remote control.
MOUNTING THE
SYSTEM
Select a location for your alarm sys-
tem in the engine compartment. For
the best results, the location should
meet the following conditions.
• All wires should reach their con-
nections without going near mov-
ing or hot engine parts.
Note: If necessary, you can
extend the wires using hook-up
wire and butt connectors. Use at
least 18-gauge wire and an insu-
lated wire connector to extend a
wire.
• The mounting location should be
solid and have no mechanisms or
moving parts behind it.
• For the best remote range, the
mounting location should allow
the system’s yellow antenna wire
to hang straight down.
• For the loudest siren, the siren
horn should point down toward
the pavement.
• The alarm should not point
straight up, as moisture could col-
lect in the siren horn and damage
the system.
• To prevent water damage, the
system should not be mounted in
a wheel well, directly behind the
radiator grill, or close to the
ground.
Once you select a location, follow
these steps to mount the system.
1. Hold the system against the
selected location and mark the
locations of the three mounting
holes.
2. Drill
1
/
8
-inch holes at the marked
locations, taking care not to drill
into anything behind the mount-
ing surface.
3. Secure the system to the surface
using the supplied screws.
Note: For the shock-sensor to
operate properly, you must use all
three screws.
