Clifford Sabre Automobile Alarm User Manual


 
AutoArming™
If you forget to remotely arm, the system will arm itself automatically (
“passively”
)
30 seconds after the vehicle doors are closed. If you re-open any door(s) within the
30-second countdown, AutoArming will restart from the beginning once all doors
are closed. This ensures you’ll never accidentally leave your vehicle unprotected.
AutoArming Enable/Disable: If you prefer, you may deactivate or reactivate
AutoArming. To do, see User-Selectable Features on pages 5-6.
AutoArm & Lock: To ensure you can’t accidently 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 on pages 5-6.
NOTE: To prevent AutoArming of the system when fueling the vehicle, either
enable valet mode or leave one of the doors open (the system AutoArms 30
seconds after all doors are closed).
Protected Valet Mode
Whenever the alarm is put in protected valet mode, all of the alarm functions are
bypassed, preventing AutoArming and accidental activation of the alarm. Use the
valet mode whenever your car is either to be serviced by mechanics, handed over
to car wash personnel or driven by valet attendants. It also comes in handy if you
ever lose your remote control or its battery dies. If you have the AutoArming
feature set on, when fueling your car, either put the alarm in valet mode or leave
the driver’s door open (the system will not AutoArm if a door is open). Be sure to
ask your installer to show you where the valet switch is located.
To turn ON the protected valet mode:
1. Insert your ignition key and turn it to the “ON” position, or start the engine.
2. Flip the valet switch.
3. The LED will glow continuously to indicate that the alarm is in valet mode.
To turn OFF the protected valet mode:
1. Insert your ignition key and turn it to the “ON” position, or start the engine.
2. Flip the valet switch.
3. The LED will turn off to indicate that the alarm is in normal operating mode.
Keyless Entry in Valet Mode: Even if valet mode “on”, you will still be able
to remotely control the convenience features. For instance, simply press button
I as if you were arming or disarming and your car’s doors will lock or unlock.
You can also use button II to activate an option.
Optional Automatic Starter Interrupt
If equipped with an optional relay, the system automatically prevents engine
starting while the system is armed.
Only
after disarming will the system allow the
engine to be started with the ignition key.
