Its features include:

                Easy Installation - Lets you install the alarm by
                                    simply connecting three wires to
                                    your vehicle's existing wiring.

                   Current Sensor - Constantly monitors your vehicle's
                                    electrical system and sounds the
                                    alarm when someone opens a door,
                                    the trunk, or does anything to make

           Built-In Motion Sensor - Sounds the alarm if the sensor detects
                                    vibration, such as that caused by
                                    someone trying to break into your
                                    vehicle, and lets you adjust the
                                    sensitivity.

                Logical Operation - Chirps once to let you know when the
                                    system arms; twice when you disarm

Remote Arm and Disarm Transmitter - Lets you turn the alarm system on and
                                    off from outside the vehicle.

                                    ignition is turned off and the last
                                    door is closed so you have sufficient
                                    time to get out of the vehicle.

                  Valet Operation - Lets you turn off automatic arming for
                                    valet parking or repair service.

                                    instantly sound the alarm.

            59,000 Security Codes - Prevents other systems on the same
                                    frequency from arming or disarming
                                    your system.

                 Indicator Module - Lets you see the system's status and
                                    warns a prospective thief that your
                                    vehicle has an alarm system.

                 Violation Memory - Sounds four tones and rapidly
                                    flashes the indicator when you disarm
                                    the system to let you know that the
                                    alarm sounded while you were away.
