Setup

1. Battery Installation

The alarm unit requires 3 AAA batteries. Ensure correct polarity when inserting batteries.

1. Using a screwdriver, remove the small screw at the base of the alarm.
2. Employ the blue plastic pry tool to gently open the gap at the base. Work along the edge of the alarm, prying each clip in sequence until the protective casing can be removed by hand.
3. Extract the spent batteries from inside the alarm and insert the new ones. The alarm emitting three "beeps" indicates successful battery replacement.
4. Align the protective cover with the alarm's mounting points and replace it, then secure the small screw at the base.

2. Mounting the Alarm

The Cruxer Bike Alarm offers two installation methods: using the provided strap or double-sided adhesive tape. Choose the method most suitable for your application (e.g., bicycle frame, seat post, scooter, motorcycle, or even windows/doors).

• Strap Installation: Use the provided straps to secure the alarm to any object smaller than the strap's shrinkage range, such as a bicycle seat post or frame.
• Double-Sided Tape Installation: For smooth, flat surfaces, apply the double-sided tape to the back of the alarm and firmly press it onto the desired location.

Operating Instructions

1. Arming and Disarming

• Arm: Press the lock button on the remote control to arm the alarm. A single beep confirms arming.
• Disarm: Press the unlock button on the remote control to disarm the alarm. A double beep confirms disarming.

2. Adjusting Sensitivity

The alarm has 7 levels of sensitivity. Higher sensitivity detects lighter movements. The default setting is usually a medium level.

1. Enter Setup Mode: Press and hold the unlock button on the remote. The indicator light will go out and come on again, and the alarm will beep continuously, indicating it's in setup state.
2. Adjust Sensitivity: Press the arm button to cycle through the 7 sensitivity levels (from high to low). Each press will produce a different tone corresponding to a sensitivity level.
3. Confirm and Exit: Press the unlock button to confirm your selection and exit setup mode.

3. Adjusting Volume and Tones

The alarm offers 3 volume levels (96dB, 106dB, 113dB) and 3 different alarm tones (electric vehicle horn, horn sound, bird chirping).

1. Enter Setup Mode: Press and hold the unlock button on the remote. The indicator light will go out and come on again, and the alarm will beep continuously, indicating it's in setup state.
2. Adjust Volume: Press the bell button to cycle through the 3 volume levels (low, middle, high).
3. Confirm and Exit: Press the unlock button to confirm your selection and exit setup mode.

1. Ensure Disarmed State: The alarm must be disarmed to change tones.
2. Switch Tones: Press the lightning bolt button to cycle through the 3 different alarm tones.

4. SOS Function

The SOS function triggers an alarm if the device tilts more than 45° from its original position, indicating a fall or significant impact. This function is off by default and needs to be activated.

1. Keep Alarm Vertical: Ensure the alarm is in a vertical state.
2. Enter Setting State: Long press the remote control's unlock button. When the indicator light turns off and then on again, it means the alarm is in the setting state.
3. Activate SOS: Press the lightning bolt button once. A 'Bi' sound will be heard, indicating the alarm has locked its posture. After that, five 'Bi' sounds will be heard, confirming the SOS function is successfully turned on. If two 'Bi' sounds are heard, it means the alarm is in the wrong posture; reposition it.
4. Deactivate SOS: To turn off the alarm after it is turned on, press the lightning bolt button once, and 'Bi' will sound twice, meaning the function has been turned off.
