Clifford ACE 300 Automobile Alarm User Manual


 
Smart prior intrusion attempt alert
If you hear three chirps when you remotely disarm, it means that a trigger or sensor
was activated in your absence. When you enter the vehicle and turn on the ignition
(or start the engine), the LED will blink 1–3 times, pause, then repeat the blink cycle
4 more times. Count the number of blinks in one cycle and refer to the chart on page 11.
Piezo Sensor
The Piezo Sensor that detects intrusion-related vibrations and impacts.
FACT™— False Alarm Control and Test
With FACT, you’ll never experience repeated false alarms. If the siren goes off, DO
NOT remotely disarm the system; allow it to run for the full siren duration. Before
sounding the siren a second time, the system automatically checks for another
activated trigger to verify that an intrusion is in progress. Should the siren sound
again, you will know for sure that someone is tampering with your vehicle. (To
disable FACT, see User-selectable features on pages 13-14.)
High-output siren
Loud siren wail when the system detects an intrusion. Your ACE 300 also provides
these additional features:
Long-term chirp silencing: Whenever you wish, you may silence your ACE
300’s arm and disarm chirps until you decide to restore them. The parking
light flashes will continue to provide visual confirmation of remote controlled
arming and disarming. See User-selectable features on pages 13-14.
Remote controlled chirp muting: Remote controlled chirp muting capabilities
are especially valuable when parking late at night in a quiet residential area or
any other time when you want to arm or disarm silently. To arm or disarm
silently, simply press button 3 on your remote control instead of the usual
button 1.
SmartPowerUp™ II
If power to the system is ever removed, SmartPowerUp II ensures the system will
automatically restore itself to its previous state when power is restored. So if a thief
disconnects the power and then restores it in an attempt to start the car, the system
will re-arm and instantly sound the siren while immobilizing the vehicle. If your
vehicle is to be serviced by a mechanic, just put the system in valet mode via the
remote control (see Remote controlled valet mode entry and exit on page 9). If the
mechanic needs to interrupt power, your system will automatically return to its valet
mode state when power is restored; there will be no alarm activation and no need to
provide your mechanic with your remote control and instructions on how to use it.
