Power Sounder,
Inclination Sensor, and
Intrusion Sensor
In addition to the standard
theft-deterrent system
features, this system may also
have a power sounder,
inclination sensor, and
intrusion sensor.
The power sounder provides
an audible alarm which is
distinct from the vehicle’s
horn. It has its own power
source, and can sound an
alarm if the vehicle’s battery is
compromised.
The inclination sensor can set
off the alarm if it senses
movement of the vehicle, such
as when a tire is removed.
Make sure the vehicle's alarm
is not armed prior to any
jacking. The intrusion sensor monitors
the vehicle interior, and can
activate the alarm if it senses
unauthorized entry into the
vehicle's interior. Do not allow
passengers or pets to remain
in the vehicle when the
intrusion sensor is activated.
Before arming the
theft-deterrent system and
activating the intrusion sensor:
.Make sure all doors and
windows are completely
closed.
.Secure any loose items such
as sun glasses.
.Make sure there are no
obstructions blocking the
sensors in the front
overhead console.
