How to set your own secret valet code You may choose any 1-4-digit code, but the first digit must not be a zero (e.g., 1023 is a valid code, 0123 is not). See User-selectable features. Example Let's say you want to set a valet code of 4301: 1. From the Table of user-selectable features, you would note that the Set a new secret valet code feature is in column 2, row 7. 2. Enter program mode by turning on the ignition, entering your current code, then pressing and holding the D button of the PlainView 2 switch for 3 seconds until you hear a chirp. 3. Select column 2 by pressing the blank button twice. After a brief pause, you will hear 2 chirps to confirm that you have selected feature column 2. 4. Within 5 seconds, select row 7 by pressing and releasing the D button 7 times. To help you count, you will hear a chirp each time you press the D button. After 7 presses, immediately press the blank button, then immediately enter your new code. Example: To enter 4301 as your new code, you would press the switch buttons in this manner: DDDD blank, DDD blank, blank, D blank. 5. Wait for the 2-chirp confirmation. 6. Turn off the ignition to exit program mode (you'll hear a 3-chirp confirmation). 7. VERY IMPORTANT: You must immediately test your new secret valet code: Turn on the ignition, enter your new code, then press and hold the blank button for 4 seconds. The LED will illuminate to indicate that the system is in valet mode. Turn the ignition off. The system is now in valet mode. If the LED does not illuminate, the new code you programmed and the one you just entered do not match. In such a case, the system will revert to the previous code. 8. To exit valet mode and return to normal operation, turn the ignition on and enter your code. Remote Controlled Valet Mode Valet mode turns off all security features and prevents AutoArming when, for instance, having your car washed. To turn valet mode on/off, simultaneously press the D and buttons. Two parking light flashes confirm valet mode on, one flash confirms valet mode off. The dashboard LED will glow continuously when valet mode is on. Your system remains in valet mode until you again press the D and buttons to turn it off and restore normal operation. This is a user-selectable feature and may be programmed off if you wish to use this button combination for a different function. False Alarm Prevention & FACT™ With FACT (False Alarm Control and Test), you'll never experience repeated false alarms. If the siren sounds, DO NOT disarm; allow it to run for the full siren duration. Before sounding the siren a second time, the system automatically checks for another activated sensor or trigger to verify that an intrusion is in progress. This feature is user-selectable. Starter AutoImmobilization While armed, your system immobilizes the starter to prevent a thief from starting the engine. The engine will remain immobilized even if a thief were to cut power to the system or find and remove the system control unit. EC compliance in Europe only: Unlike the AutoArming feature noted above, AutoImmobilization occurs 30 seconds after turning off the ignition regardless of opening/closing the doors. When you remotely disarm, you have 30 seconds to start the engine. If more than 30 seconds pass, AutoImmobilization occurs, as indicated by the LED repeatedly flashing (but at a slower than normal "armed" rate). If AutoImmobilization occurs, use the remote control to arm and then disarm or use the engine restart feature below. Optional Wireless Immobilizer™ Clifford's optional Wireless Immobilizer interrupts a second point in the vehicle, such as the ignition or fuel pump. This Clifford innovation provides immobilization without any wires to the control unit, so a thief could not find the Wireless Immobilizer even if he tried tracing the system wires! Operation of the Wireless Immobilizer is automatic and user-transparent. BE sure to keep the record your Clifford installer provides as to the location of the Wireless Immobilizer in case your vehicle needs future servicing. NOTE: If your vehicle's engine ever stalls, the Wireless Immobilizer WILL engage. You must turn the ignition all the way to "OFF" in order to restart. Engine Restart Feature: Europe only In compliance with EC requirements, the AutoImmobilization will automatically engage thirty seconds after shutting down the engine. Thus AutoImmobilization may occur while waiting for a train to pass or other delay. To restart: 1. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position. 2. Press button . 3. You may now start the engine. 5
