CLIFFORD AvantGuard III - Manual (Page 7)

Remote Engine Starting Features
(cont.)
✔ Anti-Theft Measures — If the alarm is triggered, the system immediately shuts
down the engine, and immobilises the starter motor and ignition system. Even if
the system is disarmed, the engine will be shut down if any of the following occur:
•
The transmission is moved out of the “PARK” position
•
The brake pedal is pressed
•
Engine RPM exceeds a certain threshold
•
The bonnet is opened
✔ Cold Weather Cranking — Cranks the engine for up to 10 seconds or until it
starts, whichever occurs first. If the engine does not start, or starts and then
stalls, the system will try to restart the engine up to two additional times.
✔ AutoShutDown — Automatically shuts down the engine after 30 minutes.
This extended runtime provides the maximum heating/cooling effect.
✔ StarterGuard — Prevents accidental grinding of the starter motor if you
inadvertently turn the ignition switch to the starter position while the engine
is running under the control of the AvantGuard III.
✔ ShortStop — Now you won’t need to shut off the engine when stopping at a
convenience store or making a delivery. Just a press on the remote control
while the engine is still running and you can remove the keys, exit, remotely
lock the doors and arm the alarm without shutting down the engine.
✔ Petrol & Diesel Compatibility — The AvantGuard III works with any
automatic transmission vehicle that has either a petrol or diesel engine (diesel
engine vehicles require an optional adapter).
✔ AutoStart Features — AvantGuard III provides these AutoStart features:
n Battery Mode — You may command the system to continually monitor the vehicle
battery when you are going to be away for an extended period of time. If the voltage
drops below a preset level, the system will automatically start the engine and
recharge the battery. It shuts down the engine once the battery is properly charged
or after 30 minutes, whichever occurs first. If needed, the process will repeat every
eight hours. AutoStart is automatically canceled as soon as the vehicle is driven.
n Temperature Mode — You may set the AvantGuard III to AutoStart your vehicle
if the engine temperature drops below 15°F (-9°C).
n Dual-Mode — You may set the system to monitor both the temperature and the
voltage and, if either one is needed, the system will AutoStart the engine.
✔ Automatic Transmission Required — The AvantGuard III is intended
exclusively for automatic transmission vehicles.
