Peculiarities

According to the instruction manual for Mongoose anti-theft systems (model 750 or other), the car alarm has the following capabilities:

1. The kit comes with remotes that can be programmed for certain functions yourself.
2. Almost every Mongoose model, according to the instruction manual (in particular, the 750 model), is equipped with an anti-grabber option.
3. The anti-theft system is protected from scanning pulses, which will not allow intruders to intercept the signal.
4. Also, without exception, all alarms from Mongoose (in particular, model 750) are equipped with the function of storing settings. Even if after connecting you decide to turn off the system by resetting the battery terminal, the alarm will not reset the entire configuration to the standard one, but will leave all the necessary settings. The only exception is when the system is attempted to be hacked by changing the mode.
5. Any system is equipped with the Panic function.
6. As stated in the instruction manual, almost all models are equipped with the option to automatically arm the vehicle.
7. Valet mode is also relevant for all Mongoose alarm models, including the 750 model.
8. The driver has the ability to control the lock remotely, at a certain distance, for this an additional channel is used.
9. If necessary, the car owner can always adjust the impulse.
10. The Mongoose anti-theft system, as noted in the operating instructions, has the function of storing operations. That is, in the event that the car was armed, while the vehicle doors, trunk or hood were opened, the ignition was turned on, the system will notify you. Instead of the two beeps you hear after disarming, the system will emit four beeps.
11. Disarming the car alarm can be done in a few steps.
12. If necessary, the alarm system will automatically bypass faulty components and mechanisms that are armed by disabling them. The signaling should also inform the driver about this.
13. The number of sensor activations is 8 times. If the sensors have been triggered more frequently, this may lead to a temporary shutdown of the system.

Also, one of the features of the Mongoose alarm is a remote control, which is a radio transmitter. The device is powered by a conventional battery, the case is made of plastic, it has an LED lamp and three buttons. So that the remote processor can independently change the type of radio commands, the developers have worked on creating a special algorithm. As a result, the vehicle will always be protected from signal interception by intruders. The diode bulb is designed to demonstrate the response signal, if its brightness decreases, then this may indicate that the battery will need to be changed soon. Usually, the Mongoose alarm package includes two key fobs, each of them performs the same functions (the author of the video is Yakov Toporkov).

Any anti-theft is equipped with a driver alert function using an LED on the key fob.

If the key fob is flashing, this may indicate several states of the anti-theft system:

1. Flashing on the key fob indicates that the alarm has successfully armed the vehicle.
2. If the LED light on the key fob glows continuously, then, as stated in the instruction manual, this indicates the activation of the Valet mode.
3. In the event that the diode does not blink at all, then this indicates that the Mongoose anti-theft system is turned off.
4. If after you disarmed the car, the diode blinked 2-3 times, then this indicates that the car doors were opening while the car was armed. The instruction manual notes that four flashes indicate that the ignition has been turned on in the car.
5. If the signal is one and short, then this indicates the presence of a delay before automatic installation for protection.

Types and models

Below are the most popular Mongoose alarm models among consumers, with the exception of types that have already been discontinued:

• TT model;
• RKT11-S;
• QS model;
• IQ 200/1;
• Mongoose Immobilizer;

Instructions for use

Below is an instruction manual for the anti-theft system. You will also find photos, videos and a connection diagram and recommendations on how to properly turn off the system if necessary below.

How to connect?

To properly connect the device, use the diagram and basic recommendations:

1. First of all, as stated in the instruction manual, the central unit is connected. It is mounted in the car interior, during operation the unit should not heat up, moisture should not get on it, as this will lead to failure. The antenna from the unit must be installed as high as possible, this will contribute to a better signal. The instruction manual says that the antenna should not be placed near metal, as this will affect the signal quality.

   The most important thing is that the installation of the block itself should not be the way everyone puts it under the steering column, but hidden somewhere. If thieves got into the car in some way, they will not be able to quickly turn off the alarm.

2. Next, you need to install the siren directly. The siren is placed in the engine compartment or in any other place, but such that the criminal could not turn it off. To ensure that the siren is always in working condition and cannot be turned off, the element must also not be affected by high temperatures and humidity. The instruction manual notes that in accordance with must be carried out with the horn down.
3. The next step will be the installation of limit switches in the vehicle doors, on the hood and trunk. These elements must be installed in places that will be protected from moisture.
4. Next, you need to install the sensitivity sensor. This device is installed in the passenger compartment, in particular, on the body. The element is fastened with bolts or self-tapping screws; it is necessary that its installation be carried out next to the longitudinal axis of the machine. The sensitivity setting is carried out as follows - you need to lightly tap on the vehicle body, revealing the sensor's response to your actions. Sensitivity is adjustable depending on your preferences, but it is desirable that it is not too high. Otherwise, the siren will sound frequently and you will have to turn it off periodically.
5. As stated in the operating instructions, all power circuits of the system must be reliably protected by relays or fuses (the author of the video on installing the alarm is Sergey Zukol).

How to use?

To arm the vehicle, press the button on the key fob once. At the same time, the turn signals will blink once, you will hear a siren signal. Over the next seconds, the signaling system diagnoses the performance of all regulators and closes the doors, now the protection mode is activated. The diode lamp on the antenna will flash regularly, indicating that the car is protected, while the vehicle's engine will be blocked.

If it is necessary to disable the protection, while the siren does not work, the second button on the remote control is pressed. When the system is disabled, the siren will sound twice and the turn signals will turn on again. At this point, the car doors will open and the engine will unlock. In the event that the siren worked while the machine was under protection, the siren will emit not a double, but a quadruple signal.

When the vehicle is under protection, the anti-theft system monitors certain areas. In the event that they try to open the car, the siren starts, and it also starts, as a rule, the duration of the siren is 30 seconds, but you can set this indicator yourself. If intruders continue to operate in the car, the siren will continue to emit appropriate signals until the cause is eliminated.

Possible malfunctions

In the work of any even the most expensive anti-theft system, malfunctions may occur.

Below we will talk about the malfunctions that are typical for Mongoose car alarms:

1. The device does not arm the car from the key fob. In this case, the cause can be either a malfunction of the key fob itself or problems in the operation of the central signaling unit.
2. The doors are not blocked when the vehicle is put into protection. As a rule, in this case, the essence of the problem lies in the fact that the device does not work or the unit itself has failed. It is necessary to diagnose the unit, also check the wiring. If only one door does not close, then this may indicate a cable break, which will need to be replaced.
3. Quite often, motorists are faced with a non-working trunk opening option, this is only relevant for models that provide this function.
4. If the signaling turns on for no reason, then this may indicate that the shock sensor is incorrectly configured.

Advantages and disadvantages

First the pros:

• in practice, the signaling copes well with its tasks both at low and high temperature air;
• the system has great functionality to protect the machine;
• with an alarm you will always be calm for the safety of the car;
• usually the central unit works flawlessly;
• affordable price.

As for the cons:

• for certain types of Mongoose alarms, specific specific malfunctions are characteristic, which we described above;
• signaling installation is a very complex and time-consuming process;
• for the Mongoose device, a common problem is the breakage of the key fob.
