ABSTRACT:
A device for alarming a car that has already been started, which is capable of audibly informing of starting of the car so as to prevent the starting system of the car from being driven in a state that the engine has started. The device includes a starting sensing unit for sensing whether or not an engine of the car has started, a key position sensing unit for sensing the current switch position of a starting key, an audio converter for generating an audio signal in accordance with an output signal from the key position sensing unit, and a speaker for outputting the audio signal so as to audibly inform of a starting state of the engine. The key position sensing unit has a comparator adapted to compare the output signal from the key position sensing means with a reference value, thereby determining whether or not the engine has started and sends the resultant signal from the comparator to the audio converter.
