Three Star AVS S3 car immobiliser
The entry point of the AVS S-Series range, the AVS S3 immobiliser system features three immobilisers plus, it can be upgraded later to a full alarm. And the new generation release April 2009 allows you to operate the system from your factory remote.
Immobiliser features:
Three automatic immobilisers
For maximum security fuel pump, ignition system and starter motor immobiliser cuts (where possible) are made so the car cannot be started unless it is disarmed via the remote. The system will immobilise 40 seconds after the ignition is turned off or when the alarm is armed.Turbo timer functions*
The AVS S3 is designed specifically to work with turbo vehicles. It has two turbo timer options to choose from.
On-board turbo timer – no need to fit an external unit - using the on-board turbo timer is the most secure way to have a turbo timer. The alarm is armed as usual but the car will continue to run for the preset run time of 1, 2 or 4 minutes. If the alarm is triggered during this time the car will shut down and the alarm will sound. It can also be turned off prior to the preset run time via the AVS remote.
Turbo timer interface - link the alarm up with your existing external turbo timer so your car will continue to run on the external turbo timer after the alarm is armed as usual. If the alarm is triggered during this time the car will shut down and the alarm will sound.
NEW Control the system with your vehicle’s factory key*+
If your vehicle has a factory key that locks/unlocks the doors your AVS immobiliser system may be able to interface with it so the immobiliser arms/disarms at the same time. Boot release will also work from the factory key. This feature will work with most factory keys.
NEW Courier function*
Courier function allows the engine to continue running indefinitely while the system is armed. If the alarm is triggered during this time the car will shut down and the alarm will sound.
