Shock Sensor
Coupe Convertible
The shock sensor is what triggers the alarm when it
detects a blow to your vehicle. It is located over the
wheelhouse near the spare tire in the hatch area,
on the passenger’s side of the vehicle. There are two
levels of alarms via the shock sensor. Two horn blasts
and parking lamp flashes for non
-threatening blows to
the vehicle and a full two
-minute alarm for harder blows
to the vehicle. Its sensitivity can be adjusted if more or
less sensitivity is desired. If sensitivity is increased too
much, it may give false alarms caused by gusts of wind
or other natural events that may shake the vehicle.
When your vehicle is new, there will be a label covering
the adjustment knob. Remove the label and adjust the
sensor as desired. Turn the knob clockwise to increase
sensitivity and counterclockwise to decrease sensitivity.
The shock sensor is ignored by the alarm system when
the following happens:
D
The ignition is on,
D
the hatch is open,
D
the alarm is disarmed,
D
when customized to be ignored, or
D
for five seconds after the horn sounds an
alarm or chirp.
The shock sensor is ignored after triggering three
full alarms until the system is rearmed.
