Clifford concept 50x Automobile Alarm User Manual


 
Automatic malfunction bypass
In the event of a component malfunction, the system will automatically bypass any
faulty point and arm all
other
triggers and sensors to provide the utmost possible
protection until you can have the system serviced by your local Authorized Clifford
Dealer. If you accidentally armed with the hood, trunk or a door open, just close the
open point and the system will again monitor that point.
Multiple-event TotalRecall
The system’s memory records the identity of the last 8 activated or malfunctioning
triggers and sensors, which allows your installer to track down any malfunction. To
identify the triggers and sensors held in memory, use the following procedure:
1. With the ignition OFF, flick the PlainView switch to its latched side.
2. Press button 1 to “arm” the system, then again to “disarm.”
3. The LED will blink 1–6 times to indicate the most recently activated point, pause,
blink 1-5 times to indicated the next most recently activated point, and so on.
4. Write down the number of blinks between pauses and refer to the chart on page 13.
AutoLock and AutoUnLock
For your safety and that of your passengers, the doors automatically lock the instant
you turn on the ignition (see
User-selectable features
on pages 16-20). When you turn
the ignition off, AutoUnLock automatically unlocks the doors. To suit your preferences,
you may turn off
either or both
the AutoLock and/or AutoUnLock features. There
are four possibilities: AutoLock “on” while AutoUnLock is “off”, or vice-versa.
The other two combinations are both AutoLock and AutoUnLock “on” or both “off.”
False Alarm Prevention and FACT — False Alarm Control and Test
False alarms are usually caused by a car alarm’s sensor that either cannot detect the
difference between normal environmental conditions and a genuine theft attempt or,
in the case of your Concept 50x, has its sensor sensitivity set too high (see Remote
Sensor Adjustments on page 12). Clifford’s exclusive FACT feature ensures you’ll
never experience repeated false alarms. If the siren goes off, DO NOT remotely
disarm; allow it to run for the full 30-second siren duration. Before sounding the
siren a second time, the system automatically checks for another activated trigger or
sensor to verify that a genuine 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 16-20.)
SmartPowerUp II
If power is 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
while the system is armed 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.
