OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS - CONCEPT GOLD ALARM

Your caravan has been fitted with a CONCEPT GOLD alarm system. This provides comprehensive protection for your caravan, when parked or coupled to your tow vehicle, as well as protecting the contents. The alarm system is controlled by a key fob, which can also switch the awning light on/off. When the alarm is on, pressing both fob buttons sounds the siren (PANIC ALARM) As the alarm is SOLD SECURE approved you should be eligible for a discount on your insurance premiums.

The alarm system is simple to use, full instructions are given in the section USING YOUR ALARM. A product specification is given at the end of this section.

PREPARATION FOR USE

The caravan must be fitted with a 12 Volt leisure battery for the alarm system to work.

Check that the key switch on the control box is turned clockwise, otherwise the alarm will not work.

USING YOUR ALARM

Press the ALARM button on the key fob for a couple of seconds to switch the alarm on. The siren will “cheep” twice so you know that the alarm has been activated. Should a thief trigger the alarm the siren will sound for 2 minutes and reset. On your return, switch the alarm off by pressing the ALARM button on your key fob for a couple of seconds. The siren will “cheep” once so you know the alarm has been de-activated.

When using the alarm with the caravan coupled to your tow vehicle (for example at motorway service areas) remember to switch the alarm off on your return, otherwise the first time you use the foot brake you will trigger the alarm siren.

To switch the awning light (and if connected an interior light) on/off press the LIGHT button on the key fob. (Please note that these lights must be switched on with their own switches before they can be switched off then back on using the key fob.
