ongratulations on the purchase of your Clifford Electronics BlackJax 4 anti-carjacking &
vehicle self-recovery system. Clifford Electronics has long been recognized as the
leading manufacturer of high-technology vehicle security systems. Our commitment to
technological innovation, quality and reliability is clearly evident in your Clifford system. Yet
despite all its sophistication, your system is amazingly easy to use, never more difficult than a
few presses of a button.
How it works
BlackJax 4 provides a safe and effective means of recovering your vehicle after a theft or
carjacking. In a carjacking situation, the sooner you are out of the car the better. Don’t resist
or take anything with you, just get out and get away. The instant the car door is opened, your
BlackJax 4 takes charge. First it allows the carjacker to drive a short distance, ensuring your safety.
Then it repeatedly flashes the brake lights and continuously sounds the siren to caution
nearby drivers and draw attention to your stolen vehicle. It then electronically pulses off the
vehicle’s ignition system, safely forcing your vehicle to slow at then stop.
After safely shutting down the engine, BlackJax 4 prevents it from being restarted. In fact,
BlackJax 4 assures the thief cannot restart the engine even if he were to find and remove the
system control unit. Unable to restart the engine, and with your vehicle stalled in the middle of
traffic — siren wailing and lights flashing — the carjacker has no choice but to abandon your
car. (The same occurs to anyone who steals your parked car from you at a gas station or in a
parking lot, which are the most common carjacking sites). To recover your vehicle, you
simply walk a block or two to your car, enter your PIN (personal identification number) code,
and the system releases control of the vehicle to you.
Your secret PIN code tells the system that the car is being driven by an authorized person. If
you or a passenger opens and closes a car door at any point while the engine is running (as
would occur in a carjacking attempt), you must again enter your secret code.
VERY IM POR TANT: Each time you be gin driv ing you MUST en ter your
PIN code via the PlainView 2 switch on the dash board or con sole (un less the
sys tem is in valet mode). You may turn this fea ture on or off any time.
Your se cret dis arm ing PIN code
Unless the system is in valet mode, within 20 seconds after you switch on the ignition and
press the brake (or open and close a door while the engine is running), you must enter your
secret disarming PIN code on the PlainView 2 switch to let the system know it is you who is
driving.
Your sys tem’s factory- set PIN code is the sin gle digit 2.
En ter ing a code
To enter your code, press the ✱ button the appropriate number of times on the PlainView 2
switch, followed by the blank button. To enter a zero, you simply press the blank button.
EX AM PLE: To en ter the factory- set code of 2, you would press and re lease the
switch in this man ner: ✱✱ blank.
EX AM PLE: To en ter a code of 1230, you would press: ✱ blank, ✱✱ blank, ✱✱✱
