Auto Alarm Systems Features
You are not alone in your quest for a great auto alarm system. Most
everyone wants a way to secure their car and many come from the
manufacturer with some type of alarm system or anti-theft protection
already.
When it comes to choosing a car alarm, there are many features which you
may want on your alarm and that may not come with your standard alarm
system. If you want these features, you may have to purchase them
separately or buy an entirely new alarm system. Some of them, however,
can be very helpful to you and the safety of your vehicle.
There are so many different types of automobile alarm system options
today and each with its own list of features. Here are some common
features your car alarm may or may not have:
1. Active re-arm feature: when the alarm has been disarmed, the alarm
will automatically re-arm after a certain amount of time if a door is
never opened. This prevents accidental disarms.
2. Anti code grabbing: this prevents people from using methods to
crack your alarm code.
3. Air horns: These are sometimes found on the inside of the car and
call attention to the burglar. They can also cause pain to anyone inside
the car when they go off.
4. Carjack protection: Will cause the engine to turn off and a siren
to blare on your vehicle. Can be activated if your car is taken by force
(if you are car-jacked)
5. Door lock/unlock: Some alarms allow the power locks on the
automobile to be operated by the alarm.
6. Starter kill: This will kill the ignition or starter of the vehicle
when the alarm is activated so the thief can not go anywhere
7. Emergency disarm: this switch allows you to disarm the alarm if it
is accidentally sounded
8. Flashing lights: With some alarm systems, the car headlights or
parking lights will flash when the alarm is triggered.
9. Pagers: Some alarm systems have pagers that will flash or sound off
to let you know when your car alarm is triggered. This tells you in case
you are indoors somewhere and wouldn?t hear the alarm on the vehicle
(such as shopping or inside a club).
10. Remote starts: Some systems allow you to start your vehicle by
remote before you are inside the vehicle.
