Clifford Electronics has long been recognized as the world’s leading manufacturer of high-technology vehicle security systems and accessories.
Your 4-button/12-channel remote controls The 4-button/12-channel remote controls are ultra-sophisticated miniature radio transmitters powered by a tiny 12-volt battery. Range is up to 100 feet. A weak remote control battery will reduce range. Electrical interference and even sunspots can interrupt the signal from your remote control to the system.
What each button/channel does Your Concept 40 remote controls come pre-programmed so that certain channels command certain functions. If you wish, you can actually assign any channel except 9 through 12 to any function (see pages 20-24).
TO ACTIVATE THE PANIC FEATURE . . . . . . . . . . Press button 1 (channel 1) for 3 seconds. The parking lights will flash repeatedly and the siren will blare for 30 or 60 seconds (user-selectable), or until you press button 1 again to turn it off.
Anti-CodeGrabbing™ (ACG) with Random Code Encryption A Clifford exclusive that protects you and your automobile from the most effective and onerous car stealing device ever used by car thieves — a code-grabber. Code-grabbers are far more effective and efficient than scanning.
UltraSecure™ Coded Valet Mode Your secret valet code In seconds, thieves can disable all other alarm brands by hotwiring the ignition and flicking an easy to find “hidden” valet switch. Your system has safeguards that absolutely ensure a thief cannot enable the valet mode as a way of “turning off” your system.
To exit valet mode 1. Turn the ignition switch to its “ON” position or start the engine. 2. Flick the switch back to its center position. The LED will turn off to confirm that the system is now in its normal operating mode.
FA CT™— False Alarm Control an d T est With FACT, you’ll never experience repeated false alarms. If the Insignia Siren goes off, DO NOT remotely disarm the system; allow it to run for the full siren duration.
Remote controlled sensor adjustments Due to ever-changing conditions, all alarms require periodic fine-tuning of their sensors. Other alarms require repeated trips back to the dealer.
Smart AutoTesting™ Each time you remotely arm the system, it tests all triggers and sensors. If the hood or trunk is open when you remotely arm, the system will immediately alert you of the problem by sounding 4 chirps and 4 parking light flashes instead of the usual 2 and 2.
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 1–5 times, pause, then repeat the blink cycle 4 more times.
User-selectable features Your Concept 40 allows you to set many of its features to your own personal preferences. Although the system’s programming capabilities are very extensive, we have made the programming procedures very simple: to make a change, you just flick the PlainView switch a few times.
