PRECAUTIONS
Installation of the main unit
We suggest installing the main unit in a safe place under the control panel. After you have
fixed the main unit in the right place, please identify the main wires for connection (ACC, signal
lights, power supply, brake, etc.) if they are correctly connected according to the connection diagram
and then connect these wires to the unit main sensor, shock sensor and indicator light. After you have
tested the function, please install and then set the shock arming 5 seconds after you have closed the
doors to check if the shock sensor is sufficiently sensitive.

We suggest installing the shock sensor near the door or near the panel after installing the main unit to
easily detect any intrusion. Set the shock to 5 seconds after closing the doors to check if the shock
sensor is sufficiently sensitive. To adjust the sensitivity of the shock sensor, use a screwdriver to turn
the shock sensor potentiometer to the appropriate position (if sensitivity is appropriate from the factory
do not try to adjust it if you do not need it). The indicator light from the shock sensor will blink, please
