Clifford XL100 Owners Guide - Page 4

Welcome to the worldofhigh-technology vehicle security and convenience! Congratulations on the purchase of your new XL I00 Vehicle Security System for Keyless Entry. Now by simply activating your vehicle's keyless entry remote you can automatically protect your car with one of the world's finest microprocessor-controlled security and convenience systems. Clifford Electronics has long been recognized as the world's leading manufacturer of high-technology vehicle security systems. In fact, Clifford Electronics holds more patents than all other vehicle security manufacturers combined. That's why trusting the Clifford name has always meant trusting the best. TO ARM THE SYSTEM Activate the "Lock" command of your keyless entry remote as described in the vehicle's manual. You will hear two brief horn beeps and the parking lights will flash twice. The LED indicator will flash repeatedly and the car doors will lock. TO DISARM THE SYSTEM Activate the "Unlock" command of your keyless entry remote as described in the vehicle's manual. One brief horn beep and one parking light flash cOnnrins disarming. If you have the optional courtesy light relay, the interior light(s) will turn on and stay on for 30 seconds or until you start the engine, whichever conies first. Note: With the optional siren, you will hear "chirp" confirmations instead of horn beeps. How to interpret the Horn Beeps and Parking Light Flashes When you use your keyless entry system's remote, the XL100 responds with horn beeps and parking light flashes. These beep/flash acknowledgments mean: 1 2 2 and then 4 3 4 Your system is disarmed Your system is armed Armed, but there is a door open or the sensor is malfunctioning (see AutoTesting on page 9) Disarmed, but there was an intrusion attempt while you were away (see Prior Intrusion Attempt on page 9) Armed but the hood or trunk is ajar (see AutoTesting on page 9) FACTim- False Alarm Control and Test With FACT, you'll never experience repeated false alarms again. If the alarm goes off, DO NOT remotely disarm (unlock). Allow the system to run for the full alarm duration. Before sounding the alarm a second time, the system automatically checks for another activated trigger to verify that an intrusion is in progress. Should the alarm sound again, you will know for sure that someone is tampering with your vehicle. (To disable FACT, see User-Selectable Features on page 11.) Duplex Piezo Sensor This sensor detects intrusion related vibrations and impacts. If someone taps your car door while exiting his vehicle, the system will sound a rapid warning tone. But, if there's any genuine tampering with your car, the sensor will sound the full alarm. AutoArmingrM When enabled, this feature will automatically arm the system 30 seconds after the ignition is turned off and all the vehicle doors are closed. So even if you forget to arm the system, the XL100 won't. Additional features include: • AutoArming Enable/Disable: If you prefer, you may deactivate or reactivate the AutoArming feature. See User-Selectable Features on page 11. • Visual Acknowledgment: Five seconds after you exit your vehicle and close all the doors, the parking lights will flash twice to confirm that the AutoArming countdown has begun. 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 page 11. in Entry Delay: Even if you lose the use of your keyless entry remote you can still easily access your car. While in AutoArm mode, Entry Delay gives you a 15 second window after you open your door to enter your car and start the engine without activating the alarm, sec User-Selectable Features on page 11. • Instant AutoArming Bypass: Prevents AutoArming when fueling and other times when you wish to temporarily bypass AutoArming. To activate Instant AutoArming Bypass, rapidly turn the ignition switch to "ON" then "OFF' twice. You'll hear a horn beep to confirm that the system will not AutoArm. Your XL I00 will revert to normal operating mode when you start the engine.
