Clifford XL2000 Automobile Alarm User Manual


 
Secured Valet Mode
Whenever the alarm is put in secured valet mode, all of the alarm functions are
bypassed since it prevents AutoArming and accidental activation of the alarm.
You should 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 secured 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 secured
valet mode.
To turn OFF the secured 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 all the convenience features. For instance, simply press but-
ton I as if you were arming or disarming and your car’s doors will lock or un-
lock. You can also use buttons II and IV to activate other options.
Enhanced AutoArming™
If you forget to remotely arm the system, it 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.
XL2000 includes all these Enhanced AutoArming features:
AutoArming Enable/Disable: If you prefer, you may deactivate or reactivate
AutoArming. To do, see User-Selectable Features on pages 9-10.
Visual Acknowledgment: Five seconds after you exit the vehicle and close
all the doors, the parking lights will flash twice to confirm that the AutoArming
countdown is progressing. Then, 25 seconds later, the system will AutoArm.
AutoArm & Lock: 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 on pages 9-10.
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).
