DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Door and bonnet switches
Perimetric protection for the vehicle is provided by
ECU inputs connected to the starter switch, bonnet
switch and door switches.
Ultrasonic sensor
The ultrasonic sensor operates by emitting an air
pressure carrier wave which is subsequently received
by the sensor as it bounces back from objects inside
the vehicle. Once armed, the alarm will sound if wave
is disturbed by a door opening, or if movement is
detected inside the vehicle.
When the volumetric sensor is activated it monitors
movement within the vehicle for 15 seconds before
detecting and responding to intrusions. If the sensor
detects movement it delays arming until a quiet period
has lapsed; if continuous movement is detected, the
alarm will not arm volumetrically.
NOTE: Interior protection will not operate
until 15 seconds after alarm is set.
The ultrasonic sensor is positioned in a different
location, according to vehicle type, as follows:
·90/110 Station Wagon - RH cantrail trim
·90/110 Pick-up - On headlining, between interior
lamp and rear view mirror
·130 Crewcab - On headlining above RH door
Alarm sounder
Two types of alarm sounder can be fitted, one with a
battery back-up facility and or without battery back-up,
both providing an audible warning whenever the alarm
is triggered. The vehicle horn will also operate if the
alarm sounds.
The alarm sounder is fitted to LH inner front wing in
the engine compartment.
NOTE: Disconnecting the battery on
vehicles fitted with the battery backed-up
facility will result in the alarm sounding, if
correct procedure has not been followed.Engine immobilisation warning light
The engine immobilisation warning light is located on
the instrument panel, and provides a visual indication
that the engine is immobilised.
Anti-theft alarm indicator light
The anti-theft alarm indicator light is located on the
instrument panel, between the fuel and coolant
temperature indicators, and provides a visual
indication of the alarm/ immobiliser status.
