FEATURES

Your RS-2000 Auto Security Alarm

System warns away potential thieves

and alerts you to trouble by sounding

a piercing alert tone. It also includes

other advanced features that help

protect your vehicle from theft, yet

you can install it in minutes. The two

convenient key-chain remote con-

trols lets you arm and disarm the sys-

tem, sound a panic alert, or activate

the car finder feature when you are

away from your vehicle.

Your RS-2000 includes these fea-

tures.

Passive Armin

— automatically

arms the system after you exit the ve-

hicle. This might qualify you for a dis-

count on your vehicle insurance

premium. Show your insurance agent

the supplied certificate.

Electronic Dual-Sta

e Shock Sen-

sor — sounds a pre-alert warning the

first time someone strikes your vehi-

cle, then sounds the alert if it is hit

again within 30 seconds.

Current Sensin

stem — triggers

the alert when a door or the trunk is

opened and the vehicle’s dome or

trunk light turns on, or when your ve-

hicle is hot wired, by sensing the cur-

rent draw.

Current Sensor B

pass — lets you

turn off current sensing if other elec-

tronic devices in your vehicle (such

as a high-power audio system or cel-

lular phone) make your alarm sound

false alerts.

Piercin

, 115 dB Siren — loud

enough to be heard from hundreds of

feet away.

Status Indicator — mounted in plain

view, lets you easily determine the

status of the alarm system (armed,

disarmed, entry/exit delay) and warns

away potential thieves.

Two Eas

-to-Use Ke

-Chain Re-

motes — let you easily control your

alarm from a distance.

Car Finder — lets you make the

alarm sound beeps to help you find

your vehicle in a crowded parking lot.

Instant Panic Alarm — alerts others

nearby that you need assistance

when you are in or near your vehicle.

Valet Mode — lets you easily prevent

passive arming when the vehicle is

being serviced, valet parked, or

washed.

Violation Confirmation — beeps

three times when you disarm the sys-

tem after the alert has sounded, to let

you know what happened while you

were away from the vehicle.

Programmable Options — let you

customize several of your alarm’s op-

tions, such as shock sensor sensitivi-

ty and the valet mode.

Computer-Controlled Fan Sensor

— can tell the difference between

your vehicle’s dome or trunk light and

an electric cooling fan (which can

make other alarms sound a false

alert) without using additional wiring.

Toll-Free Help — if you have any

questions about or problems with

your alarm system, just call:

1-800-598-2527

Warning: Your alarm system’s alerts

are painfully loud. Take care during

installation to keep your head away

from the system once you connect

power.

FCC INFORMATION

Your alarm system might cause TV or

radio interference even when it is op-

erating properly. To determine wheth-

er your system is causing the

interference, move your vehicle out of

the area. If the interference goes

away, your alarm system was caus-

ing it. Try to eliminate the interference

by:

• Keeping your system away from

the receiver

• Contacting your local Ra-

dioShack store for help

If you cannot eliminate the interfer-

ence, the FCC requires that you stop

using your alarm system.

INSTALLATION ORDER

You can install your system in just

four easy steps:

1. Connect the system to power.

2. Train the remote controls.

3. Mount the system.

4. Install the status indicator.

CONNECTING THE

SYSTEM TO POWER

Warning: We recommend that you

muffle the alarm’s speaker before you

connect the system to power. The

alarm is extremely loud.

Follow these steps to connect the

system to power.

1. Connect the system’s red lead to

your vehicle battery’s positive (+)

terminal.

2. Connect the system’s black lead

to a metal part of the vehicle’s

body that is not insulated from the

main chassis by any plastic part

or to the battery’s negative (–)

terminal. The system beeps three

times.

ACTIVATING THE

REMOTE CONTROLS

You must train the system to respond

to the supplied remote controls. To

activate both remote controls, imme-

diately after applying power, press

DISARM on one of the remotes. The

system beeps twice.

If the system loses power, it stops re-

sponding to both remotes. Simply

press

DISARM on one of the remotes

after power is restored to reactivate

them.

Both of the supplied system remotes

share the same remote code, but

your system can learn two remote

codes if you want to add another re-

mote control (RadioShack Cat. No.

49-845). To activate a second remote

control code, be sure the system is

disarmed, then hold down ARM for 10

seconds. The system beeps three

times. Press any button on the new

remote to activate it.

MOUNTING THE

SYSTEM

Select a location for your alarm sys-

tem in the engine compartment. For

the best results, the location should

meet the following conditions.

• All wires should reach their con-

nections without going near mov-

ing or hot engine parts.

Note: If necessary, you can

extend the wires using hook-up

wire and butt connectors. Use at

least 18-gauge wire and an insu-

lated wire connector to extend a

wire.

• The mounting location should be

solid and have no mechanisms or

moving parts behind it.

• For the best remote range, the

mounting location should allow

the system’s yellow antenna wire

to hang straight down. Do not cut

or extend the wire — its length is

optimized for best operation.

• For the loudest siren, the siren

horn should point down toward

the pavement.

• The alarm should not point

straight up, as moisture could col-

lect in the siren horn and damage

the system.

• To prevent water damage, the

system should not be mounted in

a wheel well, directly behind the

radiator grill, or close to the

ground.

Once you select a location, follow

these steps to mount the system.

1. Hold the system against the

selected location and mark the

locations of the three mounting

holes.

2. Drill 1/8-inch holes at the marked

locations, taking care not to drill

into anything behind the mount-

ing surface.

3. Secure the system to the surface

using the supplied screws.

Note: For the best shock-sensor

operation, use all three screws.

INSTALLING THE

STATUS INDICATOR

The alert indicator goes inside your

vehicle’s passenger compartment. Ei-

ther drill a mounting hole in a dash

panel or use the supplied mounting

bracket to hold the indicator. Follow

these steps to install the indicator.

1. Locate an existing wire harness

that goes through your vehicle’s

firewall, and push the indicator

into the passenger compartment

through the existing hole.

If you cannot find an existing wire

harness, drill a 1/4-inch hole

through the firewall into the pas-

senger compartment. Then push

the indicator through the hole.

Cautions:

• Before drilling, be sure you can

reach the other side of the

hole.

• Be sure you do not drill into

any mechanism on the other

side of the firewall.

• Protect the wire by placing a

rubber grommet (not supplied)

in the hole, and thread the wire

through the grommet.

2. If you are using the supplied

mounting bracket, use dena-

tured alcohol to clean the mount-

ing surface and let the surface

dry completely. Peel the backing

off of one side of the double-

sided tape and press it onto the

bottom of the bracket. Then peel

off the adhesive backing from the

other side of the tape and press

the bracket onto the dash.

If you are mounting the indica-

tor in the dash, drill a 5/16-inch

hole at the desired location.

3. Press the supplied grommet into

the mounting hole from the front

of the surface.

4. Press the indicator into the grom-

met from the back of the surface.

5. Plug the indicator’s harness into

the matching harness on the sys-

tem.

6. Use the supplied wire tie to

secure the wire out of the way.

7. If you drilled a hole in the firewall,

use silicon sealant (not supplied)

to waterproof the hole.

USING THE ALARM SYSTEM

ARMING THE ALARM

To arm the alarm, press ARM. The

alarm chirps once.

Notes:

• The status indicator turns on

when the system is armed.

• The system ignores current-

sensing violations for 40 sec-

onds after it arms.

• The system ignores shock-sen-

sor violations for 8 seconds after

you it arms.

• If the valet mode is turned off, the

system arms 60 seconds after

you turn off your vehicle.

Temporarily Reducing the

Shock Sensor’s Sensitivity

If you are parking in a severe weather

situation, near a construction zone, or

near heavy traffic, you can temporari-

ly reduce the system’s shock sensor

sensitivity to help prevent false alerts.

To reduce the sensitivity to half its

normal level, first press ARM to arm

the system. The alarm chirps once.

Then, within 2 seconds, press ARM

again. The alarm chirps once in a

lower tone.

To completely turn off the shock sen-

sor, press ARM twice within 2 sec-

onds of arming. The alarm chirps in a

lower tone each time you press ARM.

When you disarm and re-arm the sys-

tem, the shock sensor returns to its

previous sensitivity setting.

SOUNDING THE PANIC

ALARM

To sound a panic alarm, press and

release PANIC. The alarm sounds

loud tones for 30 seconds. Press any

button to stop the panic alarm sooner.

ALARM VIOLATIONS

Your alarm senses violations by mon-

itoring your vehicle’s electrical system

(current sensing) and by detecting im-

pacts (shock sensing).

An alert sounds immediately if the

current sensor detects an electrical

drain such as occurs when a dome or

trunk light turns on.

The first time the alarm senses an im-

pact that exceeds its sensitivity level,

it chirps three times. If it senses an-

other impact within 30 seconds, the

system sounds a full alert.

Note: If an impact is severe, a single

impact can cause a full alert to sound,

without giving a warning.

When your alarm senses a violation,

it sounds extremely loud tones for 30

seconds and then re-arms. To silence

the alert sooner, press any button.

DISARMING THE

SYSTEM

To disarm the system, press DIS-

ARM. The system beeps twice to

confirm that it is disarmed.

Notes:

• The status indicator is off when

the system is disarmed.

• If the valet mode is turned off, the

system chirps and re-arms after

60 seconds if you have not

started the vehicle.

• If the system detected a violation

while you were away, it beeps

three times when you disarm it.

USING THE CAR FINDER

The car finder helps you find your ve-

hicle in a dark or crowded parking lot.

To use the car finder, with the system

armed, press FINDER. The alarm

beeps 8 times.

SETTINGTHESYSTEM’S

OPTIONS

You can adjust the following options:

• Shock Sensor Sensitivity

• Current Sensor (On/Off)

• Valet Mode (On/Off)

Setting the Shock Sensor’s

Sensitivity

The shock sensor’s initial setting is

fine for most situations. To test the

shock sensor, strike your vehicle on

the hood directly over the alarm.

If the shock sensor is too sensitive or

not sensitive enough, follow these

steps to set it to a different level.

1. With the alarm disarmed, hold

down FINDER until the alarm

sounds four tones.

2. Within 2 seconds, strike your

vehicle with as much force as you

want the alarm to respond to. The

alarm sounds three tones. Any

shock equal to or greater than the

setting triggers the alert.

Notes:

• If you do not strike your vehicle

within 2 seconds, the alarm is set

to its highest sensitivity. This

could cause frequent false alerts.

• The shock sensor does not oper-

ate for 8 seconds after the sys-

tem arms.
