CLIFFORD AvantGuard III - Manual (Page 6)

Standard Features of the AvantGuard III
✔ Lifetime Warranty — For as long as you own the vehicle, Clifford Electronics
will repair or replace the control unit and remote controls free of charge (see
warranty card for full details).
✔ FACT—False Alarm Control and Test — One of many patented Clifford
innovations, FACT absolutely, positively puts an end to recurring false
alarms.
✔ A Pair of 4-Button/16-Channel Remote Controls — Fingertip command
from a distance. Each remote has a unique high-gloss rosewood finish that
looks as smart as the electronics inside.
✔ Anti-CodeGrabbing (ACG) with Random Code Encryption — Today’s
criminals are shifting from code scanning to a new, more efficient method of
electronic thievery: “code-grabbing.” When you use a car alarm remote, it
transmits a digital code to the alarm. A thief with a code-grabber can record that
code from hundreds of metres away, then play it back when you’re gone to
disarm the alarm and unlock the doors. Within seconds, your car is just
another theft statistic. Fortunately, Clifford’s Anti-CodeGrabbing (ACG)
randomly changes the transmitted code every time you press any of the
remote control buttons. And since these codes are selected by the system’s
microprocessor from an electronic file containing several trillion codes, the
remote control
NEVER sends the same code twice, and the system control
unit NEVER accepts the same code twice. That makes code-grabbing useless
against Clifford systems.
✔ Maximum Range — AvantGuard III’s ElectroLoop Antenna maximises
remote control range.
Remote Engine Starting Features
✔ Remote Engine Starting — Just a press of a button safely starts and idles your
vehicle’s engine for up to 30 minutes for maximum heating/cooling of the
passenger compartment. The side lights flash and then stay on while the
engine idles for clear, on-going visual confirmation from a distance.
✔ Automatic Safety Checks — Ensures that all of the following safety
conditions are met or your vehicle will not be remotely started:
•
Transmission must be in park
•
Engine and ignition must be off
•
Engine must not be overheated
•
Bonnet must be closed
