Setup and Installation

Professional installation is highly recommended for the VIPER 3108V Security System. Incorrect installation can lead to vehicle damage or system malfunction. Please consult a certified automotive electronics technician for proper setup.

Key Installation Considerations:

• Main Unit Placement: The main control unit should be securely mounted in a hidden, dry location within the vehicle.
• Siren Mounting: Mount the siren in the engine compartment, facing downwards to prevent water accumulation, and away from heat sources.
• Antenna/Control Center: Position the antenna for optimal range, typically on the windshield or dashboard, ensuring the LED and valet switch are accessible.
• Wiring: All wiring connections must be secure, insulated, and routed away from moving parts or heat sources.
• Sensor Adjustment: The impact sensor sensitivity should be adjusted to prevent false alarms while still detecting legitimate threats.

Operating Instructions

Using the Remote Transmitters:

• Arming the System (Lock Button): Press the Lock button once. The parking lights will flash once, and the siren will chirp once, indicating the system is armed. Doors will lock (if connected).
• Disarming the System (Unlock Button): Press the Unlock button once. The parking lights will flash twice, and the siren will chirp twice, indicating the system is disarmed. Doors will unlock (if connected).
• Trunk Release (Trunk Icon Button): Press and hold the Trunk Icon button for 3 seconds to open the vehicle's trunk (if connected).
• Auxiliary Function (Asterisk Button): Press the Asterisk (*) button to activate a programmed auxiliary function (e.g., power windows, rear defrost). Consult your installer for specific programming.
