Select a flat, metal surface within the engine compartment, but not on
the engine,forthesiren control module. Keep in mindthatthehorn end
must be facing down to prevent water from entering the module.
Alocationon the firewall, which isnot easilyaccessiblefrom underneath
thevehicle,is preferred. This locationwillprovide optimum operationof
theshocksensor, and preventthepotential thief fromdisconnectingthe
alarm from below the vehicle.
You should also locate the control module away from hot or moving
components within the engine compartment, and avoid areas where
water will run off or collect during heavy rainstorms.
To mount the siren control module;
A. Secure the module mounting bracket to the selected location using
the (2) 3/4" long screwsprovided.Carefullydrilla1/8"diameter pilot
hole for starting the screws.
B. In most cases, if the bracket has been secured to a solid metal
surface, you can connect the BLACK wire from the wiring harness to
the siren mounting bolt. Using a 10 mmwrenchorsocket,securethe
siren module ( and eyelet terminal on the end of the BLACK wire ) to
the bracket using the (2) 3/8" long hex head bolts and (2) split lock
washers provided.

2. Mounting the Hood and Trunk Pin Switches
Two pin switches are provided to protect the hood and trunk lids of the
vehicle, and should be used on any hood or trunk lid that does not turn
a courtesy light on. The switches must always be mounted into a
grounded metalpartof the vehicle, astheysimply will not operatewhen
mounted into plastic or fiberglass.
The mounting surface mustbeataheight that will cause the plunger to
depress 1/4 “ when the hood or trunk lid is closed.
IMPORTANT ! Since the pin switch is designed to be depressed when
the hood / trunk lid is closed onto it, a dimple can occur on the exterior
paint surfaceifthe switch is mountedwhereit will contact asinglemetal
thicknessareaof thehood/ trunklid.Always mountthepin switchwhere
it will contact a double wall area of the hood / trunk lid.
When choosing the pin switch mounting location, it is important to
position the switch and/or bracket where water cannot collect or flow.
Avoid all drip “ gutters “ on hood / trunk fenders. Look for locations that
are sealed with rubber gaskets when the hood / trunk lid is closed.
Excessive water on these parts will cause corrosion, resulting in a loss
of protection tothehood/ trunk lids. Also, any holes madetomountthe
switches will rust when water is allowed to penetrate. There are three
different mounting methods available. They are;

3. Mounting The Dash L.E.D. Indicator
Select an area on thedashboardorcenterconsolethat will provide the
most visibility from all angles outside the vehicle ( driver’s window,
passenger’s window, rear window, etc. ).
IMPORTANT ! Make sure there is adequate room for the body of the
L.E.D.behindthe panelin theselectedlocation. Youshouldalso besure
thatthedrill will notpierceany wires,ordamage other componentsafter
passingthroughthe panel.Itis alwaysbestto removethepanel fromthe
vehicle before drilling the hole.
To mount the L.E.D.;
A. Drill a 1/4" diameter hole at the selected mounting location.
B.Passthe L.E.D.wiresthrough theholefrom thefrontof thepanel,and
press the body of the L.E.D. into the hole until fully seated.
4. Mounting the Valet Toggle Switch
Select a flat area on the lower dash lip, where the switch is readily
accessible to the driver, but will not be accidentally bumped. Other
alternate locations are on the driver’s side kick panel, or the side of the
lower steering column cover.
Since this is a “ protected “ ( will only operate when the key is in the
ignition ) bypass switch, it does not have to be concealed, however
concealingtheswitch isalwaysrecommended, asthis provides aneven
higher level of security to the vehicle.
IMPORTANT ! Make sure there isadequateroombehindthepanelfor
the body of theswitchintheselected location. You should also be sure
thatthedrill will notpierceany wires,ordamage other componentsafter
passingthroughthe panel.Itis alwaysbestto removethepanel fromthe
vehicle before drilling the hole.
To mount the valet bypass switch;
A. Drill a 9/32 “ diameter hole in the selected switch location.
B. Pass the switch through the hole from behind thepanel,andsecure
from the front using the split lockwasher and hex nut provided.
5. Mounting the(2)Relays
The relays can be mounted in the engine compartment, but it is best to
mountthestarter cut relayin the passenger’scompartment,where itwill
notbeexposed totheenvironment. The relaythat will beused to disable
the vehicle’s starter should be mounted close tothewirescomingfrom
the ignition switch. The relay that will be used to flash the vehicle’s
parking lamps should be mounted near one of the front parking light
clusters.
To mount the relays;
A. Screw the relay to the mounting surface, using a sheet metal screw

6. Mounting the Glass Break Detector
The glass break detector module should be mounted behind the
dashboard, in an area that will allow the extension cable from the
microphonetobe pluggedin. Themicrophoneshould bemounted onthe
lower dash lip, pointing toward the rear of the vehicle. Mounting the
microphone tohardplastic panels or plasticairconditioning ducts is not
recommended, as normal expansion and contraction of plastics may
causeenoughnoise to createafalse trigger. Youshouldalso mount the
microphone below eye level, as the red L.E.D. will flicker on and off
whenever a sharp noise is detected.
To mount these components;
A. Use the screws or wire ties to mounttheglassbreakmodulebehind
the dashboard.
B. Mount the microphone using the enclosed screw, or an optional
double sided adhesive pad.

WIRING THE SYSTEM
Making the connections to the vehicle, as described in this wiring
section,maybe beyond thetechnicalabilities oftheaverage consumer.
If you have any questions with the wiring procedures, please call a
qualified automotive technician, or call the AUDIOVOX HOT LINE at 1
-800- 225-6074. Priortomaking anyconnections,a 12Voltlogic probe
should be used to confirm the proper connection point.
IMPORTANT!The 9pin whiteconnectoron theendof themain harness
that plugs into the siren control module should remain disconnected
duringthewiring portionof theinstallation.Leaving thisdisconnected will
ensure thatthekeychaintransmitters are properly programmed later in
the installation.
1. Routing The Wiring Harness
The DARK BLUE,GRAY,ORANGE,BROWN,and WHITE wires must
be routed through the firewall, and into the passenger compartment of
the vehicle.
In most cases, the RED wire will also be routed into the passenger
compartment,tothe courtesylightfuse. Beforeproceedingwith thewire
routing, verify the location of the courtesy light fuse, as a small
percentage of vehicleslocatethisfuse in the engine compartment, and
inthesecases, it willnot be necessarytoroute theREDwire through the
firewall.
Ifyouhave installedapin switchinto the trunk,you willalsoneed toroute
the DARK GREEN extension wire through the firewall, and to the
previously installed trunk pin switch.
After confirming these component locations, route the DARK BLUE,
WHITE,GREY andRED wirestowardstheir connectionpoints.Caution
should be used when routing wires. Keep wires away from all hot
surfaces,andany movingparts ofthevehicle (radiatorfans, accelerator
or brake pedal linkage, etc. ).
When routing wires through the firewall, be sure to pass the wires
through an existing rubber grommet. Failure to do this can result in
damage towiresfrom sharp metal edges, andaneventual failure of the
security system.

12. 2 Pin Door Lock Interface Connector
There is an additional 2 pin connector coming out of the siren control
module, with a RED and a BLACK wire. This connector is used for the
optional door lock interface, which will remotely lock and unlock your
vehicle’sexistingpower doorlocks whenarmingand disarming.Only the
AA 9158 door lock interface should be used with this alarm. If you are
not installing the door lock interface, do not make any connections to
these two wires.
PROGRAMMING THE KEYCHAIN TRANSMITTERS
The two keychain transmitters that are included with this system are a
“codelearning “typeRadio Frequencytransmitter,which simplymeans
thatthesiren controlmodule willlearnand remembertheindividual code
number of each transmitter. The siren control module will learn the
individual codes of (2) transmitters only. An attempt to program a third
transmitter will erase the code number of the first transmitter programmed.
IMPORTANT ! Save these programming instructions in a place where
you caneasilyfindthem in the future. Whenever thevehicle’sbatteryis
disconnected for servicing, the transmitters will need to be reprogrammed.
To Program the Transmitters;
A. The main harness connector should be disconnected fromthesiren
control module at this step of the installation procedure. If it is not,
unplug the connector.
B. Be sure to have both keychain transmitters in hand, then plug the
main harness connector into the siren control module. You should
hear a short “chirp” from the siren.
C.Pressand hold thelargerarming button ontransmitternumber 1 until
the siren sounds one long “ chirp “.
D. Immediately press and hold the larger arming button on transmitter
number 2 until the siren sounds one long “ chirp “.
E. Both transmitters should now be programmed. You can test this by
pressingthearming buttonon eachtransmitter,which willresultin the
appropriate “ ARMED “ or “ DISARMED “ indication from the siren
module.
IMPORTANT ! Ifonlyonetransmitter is operating, repeat the programming procedure. Once the harness connector is plugged in, you have
only 15 seconds in which to program both transmitters. This short time
window is required in order to provide a high level of security.
COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION
Youwillnotice (5) additionalwires, which comedirectlyout oftherubber
wire exitbootfrom the sirencontrolmodule, and arenotpart of the main
harness. These wires are used to customize the installation, and are
required in some vehicles.
1. Thin BLACK Wire
This istheantenna wire for thereceiverthatis built into thesirencontrol
module. Fully extend this wire, and route it as high in the engine
compartment as possible, for maximum transmitter range.
2. BLACK Loop Wire
This pair of wires exits the rubber boot, and are terminated with 1/8 “
mating male and female spade connectors.
Thissystemcan beprogrammedto armactivelyor passively.Insurance
discounts are usually larger for passive arming security systems.
Active arming means that the security system will only arm when the
transmitterbuttonis pressed.To selecttheactive armingfeature,simply
plug the two terminals on the BLACK wire loop together.
Passive arming means that the security system will automatically arm
60 seconds after the ignition key has been switched off. You still have
theoptionof arming thesystemimmediately by pressingthetransmitter
button, butifyou forget to do this,thesystem will automatically arm and
provide full protection to the vehicle. To select the passive arming
feature, be sure the two terminals on the BLACK wire loop are
disconnected, and individually insulate each end with electrical tape.
3. BLUE Loop Wire
This wire exits the rubber boot, and immediately loops back into the
rubber boot.
The siren control module is programmed at the factory for voice
activation. If you wish to eliminate the voice response of the system
( replacetheword “ ARMED “ withonesingle “ chirp “ -replacetheword
“ DISARMED“with two “ chirps“- replace the word“INTRUSION“ with
four “ chirps “ - and replace the words “ ATTENTION, BACKING UP “
with “threechirps..pause..threechirps..etc. “ ), simply cutthisbluewire
loop, and individually insulate both sides with electrical tape.
NOTE :The“ATTENTION INTRUSION “ voice message duringthe60
second alarm cycle will always be active. There is no way to eliminate
this voice message.
Page 6
4. WHITE Loop Wire
This wire exits the rubber boot, and immediately loops back into the
rubber boot.
Three minutes after the alarm has been armed, the voltage sensing
circuitrybecomesactive. Thisvoltage sensingmonitorsthe voltagelevel
of the vehicle, and when it sees a change ( i.e. a door opens, and the
interior light turns on ), the alarm is triggered.
Manyvehiclesincorporate anelectronic coolingfan,which willautomatically switch on afterthevehiclehasbeenturned off. If this fan switches
onshortlyafter thealarm hasbeenarmed, thesystemwill nottrigger due
to the three minute delay.
If your vehicle does not have an electronic cooling fan which turns on
after thevehiclehasbeen turned off, you mayelectto by pass the three
minute arming delay of the voltage sense circuit. The system can be
modified so that six seconds after arming, the voltage sensing circuitry
becomes active. The three minute time delay can be eliminated by
cutting the WHITE wire loop. After cutting the WHITE wire loop,
individually insulate both ends of the wire with electrical tape.
Do notcutthis loop if yourvehicleis equipped with anelectroniccooling
fan, as you will experience false alarms.
5. GREEN Loop Wire
This wire exits the rubber boot, and immediately loops back into the
rubber boot.
Cutting this wire will eliminate the voltage sensingfeatureofthealarm.
When this wire is cut, opening the doors will not trigger the system.
This loop wire should be cut only if you want toprotectthevehiclefrom
sudden impacts to the glass or body panels, but do not want the alarm
to trigger when a door has been opened.
6. Final Touches
If there are any wires from the main harness that you did not connect,
simply because you did not wish to activate a particular feature, you
shouldeither insulate the ends ofthesewires with electricaltapeand tie
them where they cannot be damaged, or simply remove any unused
wires from the main harness connector.
ADJUSTING THE SENSITIVITY OF THE SHOCK SENSOR
The purpose of a shock detector is to “sense” strong impacts to the
vehicle’s glass and body panels, but ignore light bumps to the vehicle.
This alarm is programmed to report these impacts in two ways.
A lighter impact will cause thealarmtosoundaseriesof short “chirps”,
warning anyone tampering with the vehicle to stop immediately.
Amoreforceful impactwill causethealarm tosoundfor it’sfull 60second
cycle, informing you that a serious violation attempt has occurred.
IMPORTANT ! Setting the sensitivity of the shock sensor too high will
cause falsealarms.A substantial amount offorceis required to actually
break automotive glass, and the shock sensor should be set accordingly.
Before proceeding with the adjustment, make sure that all screws
securing the siren control module to the bracket, and securing the
bracket to the vehicle, are securely tightened.
To adjust the shock sensor;
A. Locate and remove the small rubber plug on the back of the siren
control module.
B. Gently turn the adjustment screw fully counter - clockwise, then
clockwise approximately1/8of a turn. Do notoverturn this screw, as
maximum rotation is approximately 270º. You should stop applying
pressure as soon as you feel a slight amount of resistance.
C. Close the hood, arm the alarm ( ARMED or “ 1 CHIRP “ ), and allow
six seconds for the shock sensor to stabilize.
D. Firmly strike the front bumper of thevehiclewiththesideofaclosed
fist, considering the amount of force required to break a window.
CAUTION ! Never perform this test on the vehicle’s glass, as you may
break a window.
E. Ifthe alarm didnotsound, orifonly thewarningchirps wereactivated,
then the sensitivity will need to be increased. Disarm the alarm, and
open the hood to gain access to the siren control module.
F. Gently turn the adjustment screw approximately 1/8turnclockwise(
increasing sensitivity ), and repeat the test.
G. Repeat this procedure until a firm strike causes the alarm to trigger,
and a less forceful impact causes the alarm to sound the warning
chirps.
H. When the adjustment is set, replace the rubber plug on the back of
the siren module.
ADJUSTING THE SENSITIVITY OF THE GLASS BREAK
DETECTOR
The alarm does not need to be armed when adjusting the sensitivity of
this sensor. Simply observe the red L.E.D. on the microphone while
making the adjustments.
A. Gently turn the adjustment screw counterclockwise until a slight
Page 7
resistance is felt, then turn it clockwise about 1/4 rotation.
B.ObservetheL.E.D., move to the inside rearofthevehicle, and firmly
clap your hands two quick times.
C. If the L.E.D. turned on briefly, no further adjustment is necessary.
D.Ifthe L.E.D. didnotturn on, gently turntheadjustment screw another
1/8 rotation clockwise, and repeat the test. Continue until the
adjustment is properly set.
IMPORTANT !Do not set thesensitivitytoo high, as doingsowill cause
false alarms created by noises outside the vehicle. The sensitivity
should be set to detect the loud sound of breaking glass within the
automobile.
OPERATING THE SYSTEM
In thissection,the operation ofthesystem is described accordingtothe
voicemessagesthat areprogrammed intothesiren controlmodule.The
equivalent chirp tones are shown in parenthesis for those users that
have disabled the voice ( see blue wire loop ).
1. Arming the System
A. Exit the vehicle, and close and lock all doors.
B.Pressand release thelargerarming button onthekeychain transmit-
ter. The system will respond with “ARMED” ( one single chirp), and
the parking lights will flash one time.
C. The red dash mounted L.E.D. will begin to flash, and after approxi-
mately six seconds, the shock sensing feature of the system will be
activated. The voltage sensing circuit will begin its countdown, and
after approximatelythreeminutes,opening a light activated doorwill
