Bulldog Security 901 - Manual (Page 3)

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: Before operating your alarm, slide the protector down
(attached to the back of your remote transmitter) snap off the back and snap to the front.
Arming
Press transmitter Button #1 (Arm). The system will chirp once indicating that the system is armed.
Disarming
Press transmitter Button #2 (Disarm). The system will chirp twice indicating that the system is disarmed.
NOTE: If you ear three chirps when disarming, the vehicle experienced an impact violation while armed. If
you hear four chirps when disarming, the vehicle experienced a current violation while armed. This is a good
time to inspect the vehicle for forced entry marks, pain dings or scratches, and check to be sure a wheel
isn’t partially removed.
Adjusting the Shock Sensor Sensitivity
NOTE: The factory setting on the shock sensor should be acceptable for most vehicles.
To adjust the shock sensor, disarm the system, press and hold the transmitter Button #3 (finder) until the
alarm chirps four times (approximately five seconds), immediately release the button. Tap your hood above
the alarm at the sensitivity level you wish. The harder you hit the car the less sensitivity the alarm will
be. The alarm will then chirp three times. The shock sensor is now set at this sensitivity. Any shock that
is equal to, or greater will sound the alarm. Set the sensitivity as often as you wish; however, the sensitivity
level will remain set until the battery is disconnected or you reset it. If you do not tap the car it will
automatically go to maximum sensitivity. This setting is only acceptable if the car is parked inside a garage.
Car Finder
While the system is armed, press and release transmitter Button #3 (finder). The alarm will chirp eight times.
This is used to locate your vehicle in a crowded parking lot.
Instant Panic
Press and release transmitter Button #4 (panic) to sound the instant panic siren. The siren will activate
for 30 seconds and then shut off. To stop the siren before the 30 seconds, press any of the four transmitter
buttons. This feature functions at all times; whether the alarm is armed or disarmed, or the engine is off
or running.
Special Situations
Sometimes when you park your car in heavy rain, near a construction zone, near trucks, etc. you may wish to
lower the sensitivity of your alarm FOR THIS ARMING ONLY. To lower the sensitivity by 50%, press transmitter
Button #1 to arm and then again within two seconds after arming. To shut the shock sensor off completely,
press transmitter Button #1 twice within two seconds after arming. The next time the alarm is set it will
go back to the original setting.
Setting the Current Sensor
Disarm the system. Press and hold transmitter Button #4 (panic) until the alarm chirps twice (approximately
5 seconds). This indicates that current sensing is now turned off. To turn Current Sensing back on: Disarm
the system. Press and hold transmitter Button #4 (panic) until the alarm chirps once (approximately 5 seconds).
This indicates that current sensing is now turned off. NOTE: Factory setting is Current Sensing ON.
Adding A New Transmitter
With the system disarmed, press and hold Button #1 (arm) until the unit chirps (approximately 10 seconds).
At this time, release Button #1 and press any button on the transmitter you want to add. The alarm will respond
with a second chirp. Both transmitters will now operate the system.
