Identify a suitable mounting location: Choose a clean, flat surface on the rear of the vehicle or equipment where the alarm will be clearly audible and protected from direct impact.
Prepare the mounting surface: Ensure the chosen area is free from dirt, debris, and any obstructions.
Mount the alarm: Position the alarm on the surface and secure it using the two mounting bolts. Ensure the alarm is firmly attached and will not vibrate loose.
Connect the power wire: Connect the positive (+) wire from the vehicle's reverse light circuit (or a dedicated reverse signal wire) to the appropriate terminal on the alarm.
Ensure grounding: The alarm is self-grounding through the mounting bolts in most applications. Ensure good metal-to-metal contact between the alarm's base and the vehicle's frame. If necessary, connect a separate ground wire from one of the mounting bolts to a clean, unpainted metal part of the vehicle's chassis.
Test the alarm: With the vehicle's ignition on and the transmission in reverse, the alarm should sound a clear and consistent 97dB tonal warning. If the alarm does not sound, double-check all connections and the power supply.
