Instant Panic Alarm — calls out in a
female voice to alert others nearby
that you need assistance when you
are in or near your vehicle.
Warning: Your alarm system’s alerts
are painfully loud. Take care during
installation to keep your head away
from the system once you connect
power.
Valet Mode — lets you easily prevent
passive arming when the vehicle is
being serviced, valet parked, or
washed.
FCC INFORMATION
Your alarm system might cause TV or
radio interference even when it is op-
erating properly. To determine wheth-
er your system is causing the
interference, move your vehicle out of
the area. If the interference goes
away, your alarm system was caus-
ing the interference. Try to eliminate
the interference by:
Programmable Options — lets you
customize several of your alarm’s op-
tions.
Accessory Trigger Output — pro-
vides a negative trigger to activate
(but not power) accessory sensors.
Violation Confirmation — beeps
three times or says “I was tampered
with!” when you disarm the system af-
ter the alarm has sounded, to let you
know what happened while you were
away from the vehicle.
• Keeping your system away from
the receiver
• Contacting
your
local
Ra-
dioShack store for help
If you cannot eliminate the interfer-
ence, the FCC requires that you stop
using your alarm system.
Computer-Controlled Fan Sensor
— can tell the difference between
your vehicle’s dome or trunk light and
an electric cooling fan (which can
make other alarms sound a false
alert) without using additional wiring.
Toll-Free Help — if you have any
questions about or problems with
your alarm system, just call:
1-800-598-2527
Your system requires one 9-volt alka-
line battery to maintain operation if
the main power lead is disconnected.

INSTALLATION ORDER
CONNECTING THE
STARTER DISABLE
MODULE
You can install your system in just 6
easy steps:
1. Connect the starter disable mod-
ule.
The starter disable module interrupts
power to your vehicle’s starter sole-
noid so the vehicle does not start
when the system is armed. Follow
these steps to connect the module.
2. Connect the system to power.
3. Train the remote controls.
4. Install the backup battery.
5. Mount the system.
1. Using the starter solenoid’s color-
coded wires as a guide, locate
the wire that goes from your vehi-
cle’s ignition (key) switch to the
solenoid. This wire is most easily
found where the wires connect to
the ignition switch near the steer-
ing column.
6. Install the status indicator.
We recommend you get a wiring dia-
gram for your vehicle before you be-
gin, so you can easily find your
vehicle’s starter solenoid wire. Wiring
diagrams are available from your ve-
hicle’s dealer or from the Auto Securi-
ty Helpline at 1-800-598-2527.
2. Connect the negative (usually
black) lead from a 12-volt test
lamp or DC voltmeter to a metal
vehicle body part.
You also need a 12-volt test lamp or
DC voltmeter and a wire-piercing
probe adapter (such as RadioShack
Cat. No. 278-715) to ensure proper
installation.
3. Connect the wire-piercing probe
to the positive lead and press the
pin tip through the solenoid wire’s
insulation and into the wire itself.
4. Start your vehicle. The test light
should light or the meter should
indicate voltage only while the
engine is cranking (not while it
is stopped or running).
If the test fails, repeat Steps 2–4
using a different wire until you
find the correct one.

5. Turn off the engine. Then cut the
wire you located in Steps 2–4 at a
point where there are several
inches of wire on each side of the
cut.
8. Route the main system’s orange
wire through an existing hole in
1
the firewall, or drill a /4-inch hole
in the firewall, taking care not to
damage anything on the other
side of the firewall. Then plug the
starter disable module’s orange
wire into the main system’s
orange wire.
Note: After you cut this wire, you
are unable to start your vehicle
until you complete the installa-
tion.
Note: If you drill a hole, use a
rubber grommet to protect the
wire from abrasion.
6. Use one of the supplied yellow
wire tap-ins to connect the starter
disable module’s white wire to the
wire going to the solenoid.
9. Use a wire tie to secure the
starter disable module under the
dashboard.

To the Starter Disable Module
1. Connect the system’s red lead to
your vehicle battery’s positive (+)
terminal.
7. Use the other yellow wire tap-in
to connect the starter disable
module’s red wire to the wire
going to the ignition switch.
2. Connect the system’s black lead
to a metal part of the vehicle’s
body that is not insulated from the
main chassis by a plastic part, or
to the battery’s negative (–) termi-
nal. The system says “Thank
you!”

Once you select a location, follow
these steps to mount the system.
MOUNTING THE
SYSTEM
Select a location for your alarm sys-
tem in the engine compartment. For
the best results, the location should
meet the following conditions.
• All wires should reach their con-
nections without going near mov-
ing or hot engine parts.
Note: If necessary, you can
extend the wires using hook-up
wire and butt connectors. Use at
least 18-gauge wire and an insu-
lated wire connector to extend a
wire.
1. Hold the system against the
selected location and mark the
locations of the three mounting
holes.
• The mounting location should be
solid and have no mechanisms or
moving parts on its other side.
1
2. Drill /8-inch holes at the marked
locations, taking care not to drill
into anything behind the mount-
ing surface.
• For the best remote range, the
mounting location should allow
the system’s yellow antenna wire
to hang straight down. Do not cut
or extend the wire — its length is
optimized for best operation.
3. Secure the system to the surface
using the supplied screws.
Note: For the best shock-sensor
operation use all three screws.
• For the loudest siren, the siren
horn should point down toward
the pavement.
• The alarm should not point
straight up, as moisture could col-
lect in the siren horn and damage
the system.
• To prevent water damage, the
system should not be mounted in
a wheel well, directly behind the
radiator grill, or close to the
ground.

ALARM VIOLATIONS
DISARMING THE
SYSTEM
Your alarm senses violations by mon-
itoring your vehicle’s electrical system
(current sensing) and by detecting im-
pacts (shock sensing).
To disarm the system, press either

. The sys-
or
tem confirms that it is disarmed by
saying “System disarmed” or by
beeping twice.
An alert sounds immediately if the
current sensor detects an electrical
drain such as occurs when a dome or
trunk light turns on.
Notes:
• The status indicator is off when
the system is disarmed.
The first time the alarm senses an im-
pact that exceeds its sensitivity level,
it says “You are too close to the vehi-
cle. Please, move away” (if armed in
the voice mode) or chirps 3 times (if
armed in the chirp mode). If it senses
another impact within 30 seconds, the
system sounds a full alert.
• If the valet mode is turned off, the
system rearms itself after
1
minute if you have not started the
vehicle.
• If the system detected a violation
while you were away, it says “I
was tampered with” or beeps
three times when you disarm it.
Note: If an impact is severe, a single
impact can cause a full alert to sound,
without giving a warning.
USING THE CAR FINDER
When your alarm senses a violation,
it sounds an alert for 30 seconds. If
you armed the system in the voice
mode, it yells “I was tampered with”
and sounds loud tones. If you armed
the system in the chirp mode, the sys-
tem sounds loud tones. To silence
the alert sooner, press any button.

TROUBLESHOOTING
This section describes some problems you might encounter and gives possible
solutions.
Problem
Possible Solution
Frequent false alerts
• Another accessory is triggering the alarm. Try
turning off current sensing to see if this solves the
problem. If it does, try turning it back on, then
removing other accessories, one by one, until
you find which accessory is triggering the false
alert. If possible, turn off that accessory when you
leave your vehicle. Common problem accesso-
ries are cellular phones, radar detectors, and
vehicle self-test systems. If you cannot turn off
the accessory, leave current sensing disabled.
Your alarm can tell the difference between
Note:
the vehicle’s electric fan and other accessories,
so the fan does not trigger a false alert if the fan
turns on while the system is armed.
• Your alarm’s electrical connections are not mak-
ing good contact. Check the connections and, if
necessary, connect the power and ground leads
to the vehicle’s battery terminals.
• The shock sensor is too sensitive. See “Setting
the Shock Sensor’s Sensitivity” on Page 13 to
change the sensor’s setting.
• Loud thunderclaps and heavy machinery can
trigger a false alarm. If you know a thunderstorm
is approaching or that heavy machinery will be
used nearby you can temporarily reduce the
shock sensor’s sensitivity or turn it off entirely.
See “Temporarily Reducing the Shock Sensor’s
Sensitivity” on Page 11.
The alarm is not loud
enough
• The system is operating from its backup battery.
Check all power connections.
• The siren is being muffled by the engine or hood.
Try repositioning the siren so it points to the
pavement.

Problem
Possible Solution
Alarm does not operate • Check all power connections.
• Check the system’s fuse. If it has blown, see
“Replacing the Fuse” on Page 18.
• Check the remote control’s battery. See “Replac-
ing a Remote Control’s Battery” on Page 18.
Alarm does not sound
when it should
• The shock sensor is not sensitive enough. See
“Setting the Shock Sensor’s Sensitivity” on
Page 13. If you set the shock sensor to its maxi-
mum sensitivity and the alarm still does not
sound, confirm that you mounted the alarm on a
solid, metal vehicle part (not on the frame or on
rubber or plastic parts). If necessary, reposition
the alarm for better performance.
• If you have a large vehicle, the shock sensor
might not detect impacts on parts of the vehicle
far from the system. Remember that most thieves
break into your vehicle through one of the front
doors or windows. If you set the system sensitive
enough to detect all impacts, you might experi-
ence frequent and annoying false alarms.
• Confirm that you have not accidently disabled
current sensing. See “Setting the Current Sen-
sor” on Page 13.
The remote control’s
range is poor
• The antenna wire is too close to metal. If possi-
ble, position the yellow antenna wire away from
metal.
• The antenna wire has been cut or extended. The
antenna wire is factory tuned for the best perfor-
mance (a longer antenna actually does not work
as well as the short included antenna wire). If the
wire has been cut, take the system to your local
RadioShack store for repair service.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your RadioShack RS-3000 Auto Security Alarm System is an example of supe-
rior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for
the alarm so you can enjoy its protection for years.
Keep the remote controls dry. If they get wet, wipe them dry im-
mediately. Liquids can contain minerals that might corrode the
electronic circuits.
Handle the alarm and remotes gently and carefully. Dropping
them can damage circuit boards and cases and might make the
remotes work improperly.
Use and store the remote controls only in normal temperature en-
vironments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of elec-
tronic devices, damage batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts.
Keep the remote controls away from dust and dirt, which can
cause premature wear of parts.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong deter-
CLEANER
gents to clean the alarm.
Use only fresh batteries of the recommended size and type in
your alarm and remote controls. Old or weak batteries can leak
chemicals that can damage your system’s internal circuits.
Modifying or tampering with your alarm’s internal components can cause a mal-
function and might invalidate the alarm’s warranty and void your FCC authoriza-
tion to operate it. If your alarm is not operating as it should, take it to your local
RadioShack store for assistance.

Limited Ninety-Day Warranty
This product is warranted by RadioShack against manufacturing defects in material and workman-
ship under normal use for ninety (90) days from the date of purchase from RadioShack company-
owned stores and authorized RadioShack franchisees and dealers. In the event of a product defect
during the warranty period, take the product and the RadioShack sales receipt as proof of purchase
date to any RadioShack store. RadioShack will, at its option, unless otherwise provided by law:
(a) correct the defect by product repair without charge for parts and labor; (b) replace the product
with one of the same or similar design; or (c) refund the purchase price. All replaced parts and prod-
ucts, and products on which a refund is made, become the property of RadioShack. New or recondi-
tioned parts and products may be used in the performance of warranty service. Repaired or replaced
parts and products are warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period. You will be
charged for repair or replacement of the product made after the expiration of the warranty period.
This warranty does not cover: (a) damage or failure caused by or attributable to acts of God, abuse,
accident, misuse, improper or abnormal usage, failure to follow instructions, improper installation or
maintenance, alteration, lightning or other incidence of excess voltage or current; (b) any repairs
other than those provided by a RadioShack Authorized Service Facility; (c) consumables such as
fuses or batteries; (d) cosmetic damage; (e) transportation, shipping or insurance costs; or (f) costs
of product removal, installation, set-up service adjustment or reinstallation.
EXCEPT AS PROVIDED HEREIN, RadioShack MAKES NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES AND ANY
IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THOSE OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE DURATION OF THE WRITTEN
LIMITED WARRANTIES CONTAINED HEREIN. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED HEREIN, RadioShack
SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY TO CUSTOMER OR ANY OTHER PERSON
OR ENTITY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LIABILITY, LOSS OR DAMAGE CAUSED DIRECTLY OR
INDIRECTLY BY USE OR PERFORMANCE OF THE PRODUCT OR ARISING OUT OF ANY
BREACH OF THIS WARRANTY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY DAMAGES RESULT-
ING FROM INCONVENIENCE, LOSS OF TIME, DATA, PROPERTY, REVENUE, OR PROFIT OR
ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, EVEN IF Ra-
dioShack HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
Some states do not allow the limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts or the exclusion of in-
cidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from
state to state.
