Sraight from the book:

There are two levels of alarms via the shock
sensor. Two horn blasts and parking lamp flashes for
non-threatening blows to the vehicle and a full
two-minute alarm for harder blows to the vehicle. Its
sensitivity can be adjusted if more or less sensitivity is
desired. If sensitivity is increased too much, it may give
false alarms caused by gusts of wind or other natural
events that may shake the vehicle.
To adjust, remove the label covering the adjustment
**** and adjust as desired. Turn the **** clockwise to
increase sensitivity and counterclockwise to decrease
sensitivity.
The shock sensor is ignored by the alarm
system when the ignition is on, when the hatch is open,
when the alarm is disarmed, when customized to be
ignored and for five seconds after the horn sounds an
alarm or chirp. The shock sensor is ignored after
triggering three full alarms until the system is rearmed.
