Re mote con trol bat tery re place ment
Replacement of a remote control battery is simple, but any Authorized Clifford Dealer will be happy to do it for you without cost provided that you buy
the replacement battery at their shop (it’s a good idea to keep a spare battery in your glove box j ust in case).
1. Insert a small, thin screwdriver blade in the slot near the keyring opening (you may leave the keyr ing in place) and turn it to separate the two halves.
2. Remove the old battery noting the + and – indications and replace it with the new one.
3. Put the enclosure back together by first aligning the top of the remote, then snapping the case bac k together at the bottom.
Add ing new re mote con trols
For other drivers, or to control Clifford G4 systems on your other cars with the same remote, you can buy additional remote controls from any Clifford
Dealer (or direct from the Customer Service Department of your nearest Clifford Headquarters listed on the front cover) and program them into the
system yourself. Concept 100 will respond to as many as four remote controls.
NOTE: Clifford G4 systems will re spond only to G4-type ACG 2 re mote con trols. Older Clif ford AC G and non- ACG
re mote con trols are not com pati ble with G4 systems.
To add a new remote control to the system, use the Add new remote feature (column 1, row 1) of the User-selectable features section.
False Alarm Pre ven tion & FACT
With FACT (False Alarm Control and Test), you’ll never experience repeated false alarms. If the siren sounds, DO NOT disarm; allow it to run for the
full siren duration. Before sounding the siren a second time, the system automatically checks for a nother activated sensor or trigger to verify that an
intrusion is in progress. This feature is user-selectable.
Two-Point AutoIm mo bi li za tion
While armed, your system immobilizes both the starter and ignition systems of your vehicle to preve nt a thief from starting the engine. The engine will
remain immobilized even if a thief were to cut power to the system or find and remove the system co ntrol unit.
EC compliance in Europe only: Unlike the AutoArming feature noted above, AutoImmobilization occurs 30 seconds
after turning off the ignition regardless of opening/closing the doors. When you remotely disarm, you have 30
seconds to start the engine. If more than 30 seconds pass, AutoImmobilization occurs, as indicated by the LED
repeatedly flashing (but at a slower than normal “armed” rate). If Auto Im mo bi lization occurs, u se the re mote
con trol to arm and then disarm or use the engine restart feature below.
Op tional Wire less Im mo bi lizer™
Clifford’s optional Wireless Immobilizer interrupts a third point in the vehicle, such as the fuel pump. This Clifford innovation provides immobilization
without any wires to the control unit, so a thief could not find the Wireless Immobilizer even if h e tried tracing the system wires! Operation of the
Wireless Immobilizer is automatic and user-transparent.
BE sure to keep the rec ord your Clif ford in staller pro vides as to the lo ca tion of the Wire le ss Im mo bi lizer in case your
ve hi cle needs fu ture serv ic ing.
NOTE: If your vehicle’s engine ever stalls, the Wireless Immobilizer WILL engage. You must turn the ignition all the
way to “OFF” in order to restart.
En gine Re start Fea ture: Europe only
In compliance with EC requirements, the AutoImmobilization will automatically engage thirty seconds after shutting down the engine. Thus
AutoImmobilization may occur while waiting for a train to pass or other delay. To restart:
1. Turn the ignition switch to the “ON” position.
2. Press button .
3. You may now start the engine.
User- Selectable AutoArming
If this feature is enabled and you forget to remotely arm, the system automatically arms itself 30 seconds after the vehicle doors are closed. For your
convenience, if you re-open any door(s) within the 30-second countdown, AutoArming restarts the 30- second delay from the beginning after all doors are
closed. Concept 100 has these additional features:
n AutoArming entry delay: If you temporarily lose the use of your remote controls, you may turn on the AutoArming entry delay feature. If this
feature and AutoArming are turned on, it allows you to enter the car (if it previously AutoArmed) and silently disarm the system by turning on the
ignition within 15 seconds of opening the door. See User-selectable features (column 3, row 3).
n Visual acknowledgment: Five seconds after you exit, close all the doors and the interior light has turned off, the indicat or lights flash twice to
confirm the AutoArming countdown is progressing. Then, 25 seconds later, the system will AutoArm.
n Lock upon AutoArming: To ensure you can’t accidentally lock your keys inside the car, the system is factory-set not to lock the doors upon
AutoArming. To change this setting, see User-selectable features.
n Instant AutoArming bypass: Prevents AutoArming when fueling the vehicle and at other times when you wish to temporarily bypass
AutoArming. To activate Instant AutoArming Bypass, rapidly turn the ignition switch to “ON” then “O FF.” You will hear a siren chirp to confirm
that the system will not AutoArm. The system automatically reverts to its normal operating mode wh en you next start the engine.
