• The alarm will sound with the current setting:
  1. Beep = Sensitivity+20%
  2. Beeps = Sensitivity+10%
  3. Beeps = Sensitivity Standard
  4. Beeps = Sensitivity -10%
  5. Beeps = Sensitivity -20%

To change, touch the OR/BLK wire to GND the number of times related to the desired setting. At each touch, the alarm confirms with 1 beep. After turning the ignition, beeps confirm the new setting.

Attention:
To prevent false triggers from the inclination sensor, the alarm central must be well placed and fixed with double-sided tape.

Remote Controls
