User Instructions

Controlled by a key switch, the alarm is battery operated and features a siren capable of producing 107 decibels. There is a 30 second delay after inserting the key. When activated the siren sounds for 30 seconds and then stops and rearms. This can form a cost-effective alternative to security wiring of your garage or premises. The battery lasts about a year and is changed by levering open the case. Bike models considered: Suzuki RM80, 125 & 250, Yamaha YZ80, 125 & 250, Kawasaki KX80, 125 & 250, Honda CR80, 125 & 250, KTM Enduro & Motocross 125,250,300,360 & all 4 Stroke Models.

Also, there are many, many other Trials bikes that can benefit from the Alarm.

The BikeSitter™ alarm can be fitted in many ways.   Here are 3 examples:   1) Simply place the alarm under the seat or between the wheel and mudguard (see picture on right).   2) Mount it across the handlebars (second picture)   3) Use the Velcro fastener (provided) and place it on the underside of either of the two number plate 'Side Panels'. This is then easy to fix in place and open for sound to emit cleanly. (Use the spare Velcro to keep the piece fitted to your Bike clean).   The positioning method and place is down to your own preference but fixing the alarm inside the airbox is a good way to gain best advantage over a potential thief (they can't see the alarm).

Sensitivity: The electronics have been set so that a gentle push will not set off the alarm but a knock will. This is to minimise false alarms. Any sudden movement or knock will set the alarm off. Some users place a sponge under both wheels when the bike is in the garage to eliminate false shocks. Sensitivity can be adjusted (higher or lower) if you wish. Open the case with a screwdriver. On the right you will see a hole. Insert the adjustment stick a slight turn clockwise will make it more sensitive, anticlockwise is less sensitive.

Battery: One 9volt PP3 is supplied, it usually lasts a year. We recommend testing all alarms regularly - once a month for example. On resetting, should the beeps start to fail then change the battery.

Security: The Euronova BikeSitter™ Alarm is a valuable addition to your security arrangements but should be used in conjunction with other security precautions and appropriate insurance.

Hints and Tips

• BikeSitter™ is not waterproof. Also do not drop it as this will damage the shock sensor. BikeSitter™ comes with a one year warranty (except if its been dropped or drenched). Let your neighbours know so if the alarm goes off they report it. Remember to remove the key.
• Before installing BikeSitter™ , consider that you need to be able to gain access with the key to turn the alarm on and off. Poor positioning will make it impossible for you to deactivate it without setting it off. Also make sure it is quick and easy to place and remove the Alarm - otherwise it will be a chore and you will find you won't use it.
