Clifford SuperNova II Automobile Alarm User Manual


 
Automatic malfunction bypass
To provide protection even if a component malfunctions, the system automatically
bypasses any faulty point and arms all other triggers and sensors to provide the
utmost possible protection until you can have the system serviced by your local
Authorized Clifford Dealer.
TotalRecall™
The system’s memory records the identity of the last activated or malfunctioning trigger
or sensor, which allows your installer to instantly track down a malfunction. To identify
the trigger or sensor held in the system’s memory, use the following procedure:
1. With the ignition OFF, flick the PlainView valet switch to its latched side.
2. Press button 1 to “arm” the system, then again to “disarm.”
3. The LED will blink 1–4 times to indicate the most recently activated trigger or
sensor. For your convenience, the blink cycle will pause and repeat a total of 5 times.
4. Write down the number of blinks between pauses and refer to the chart below.
Smart prior intrusion attempt alert
If you hear three chirps when you remotely disarm, it means that a trigger or sensor
was activated in your absence. When you enter the vehicle and turn on the ignition
(or start the engine), the LED will blink 1–4 times, pause, then repeat the blink cycle
4 more times. Count the number of blinks in one cycle and refer to the chart above.
SmartPowerUp™ II
If power to the system is ever 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 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. If your car
is to be serviced by a mechanic, just put the system in valet mode via the remote
control (see Optional remote controlled valet mode entry and exit on page 13). If the
mechanic needs to interrupt power, your system will automatically return to its valet
mode state when power is restored; there will be no alarm activation and no need to
provide your mechanic with your remote control and instructions on how to use it.
