The AVS A4 is a well priced Four Star alarm with the addition of some extra features to provide more security for the dollar.
Alarm features
Starter motor and ignition system or fuel pump immobiliser cuts are made so the car cannot be started unless it is disarmed via the remote. The system will immobilise 38 seconds after the ignition is turned off or when the alarm is armed.
A self powered siren that communicates independently with the alarm so it cannot be fooled into turning off like normal battery back-up sirens.
The alarm is armed as usual but the car will continue to run for the preset run time of 1, 2.5 or 5 minutes. If the alarm is triggered during this time the car will shut down and the alarm will sound.
Built in turbo timer – no need to fit an external unit this is the most secure way to have a turbo timer. It can also be turned off prior to the preset run time via the remote.
Turbo timer interface - link the alarm up with your existing external turbo timer.
If the alarm is armed and a door, bonnet or boot is opened the alarm will sound.
And for additional security add your choice of sensor (additional charge will apply):
Triggers the alarm if an impact is detected to the vehicle.
Triggers the alarm if the sound of breaking glass is detected.
Triggers the alarm if a change of air pressure or movement is detected in the cabin of the car.
Triggers the alarm if body mass movement is detected inside the car (for convertibles).Certified to AS/NZS 4601.1999 Rev A
