Clifford concept 50x Automobile Alarm User Manual


 
Built-In Two-Point AutoImmobilizer
Thirty seconds after you turn off the ignition, the system’s built-in two-point
AutoImmobilizer electronically disengages your vehicle’s starter motor and
electronic fuel pump to ensure against theft of your vehicle. The LED Status
Indicator will repeatedly flash to indicate that AutoImmobilization has been
activated. Even if a thief were to cut all the wires or even find the Concept 50x
control unit and disconnect it, he would still be unable to start the engine.
Please be aware that, unlike AutoArming described above, AutoImmobilization
occurs regardless of whether you open or close any doors. What’s more,
disabling the AutoArming feature has no effect on AutoImmobilization.
When you remotely disarm your Concept 50x, the AutoImmobilization circuits
automatically disengage. You then have 30 seconds to start the engine (or turn the
ignition switch to its “ON” position). If more than 30 seconds pass, the immobilizer
will automatically reactivate. This will be visually indicated by the LED repeatedly
flashing.
To disarm the AutoImmobilizer, use the remote control to arm and then disarm
the system.
Smart AutoTesting
Each time you remotely arm the system, it tests all triggers and sensors. If the hood
or trunk is open, the system will immediately alert you with 4 chirps and 4 indicator
light flashes instead of the usual 2 and 2. If a door is ajar, you will receive the usual
2 chirps and 2 flashes, then, 5 seconds later, 4 chirps and 4 flashes. (The door ajar
warning will not work on vehicles with factory-delayed or dimming courtesy lights). If
a sensor is malfunctioning, you will receive the usual 2 chirps and 2 flashes, then,
10 seconds later, there will be 4 chirps and 4 flashes.
Specific malfunction identification: If you get the 4-chirp/4-flash signal upon
arming, perform the following to identify the malfunctioning trigger or sensor:
1. Remotely disarm, then turn on the ignition. The LED status indicator inside your
vehicle will be flashing, pause, then repeat.
2. Count the number of blinks in one cycle between pauses (for your convenience, the
blink cycle repeats a total of 5 times) and refer to the chart below:
Number of LED blinks between pauses Trigger/sensor indication

* If your vehicle has a factory-installed feature that turns off or dims the interior courtesy lights
five seconds or more after you exit the vehicle, the system cannot provide this indication.
