PREFACE
This security installation training manual has been produced as a guide to help the
vehicle security ins
taller perform quality installations as required by the joint
Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 3749.2:1997. Installers are encouraged
to obtain a copy of this document, along with a copy of Part 1 of the Standard,
which refers to the specifications a
nd performance requirements of vehicle security
systems.
Because it is recognised that the vast majority of vehicular false alarms are a direct
result of poor installation and maintenance of alarm systems, it is hoped that
adherence to the Standard, toget
her with reference to this Security Installation
Manual, will significantly reduce the number of false alarm incidents.
The Standard requires that the installation of a security system must be carried out
only by competent persons who are accredited by a
manufacturer/supplier or an
authorised competency assessor, to install the appropriate VSAS (Vehicle Security
Alarm System) or VSIS (Vehicle Security Immobiliser System). A competent person
is referred to as a person who has acquired through training, qual
ification, or
experience, or a combination of these, the knowledge and skills enabling that
person to perform the tasks required by this Standard.

This means no short cuts. You never get paid
twice for having to do the job twice because it wasn’t done right the first time.
