“Guess ing” your code won’t help a car jacker
What if the carjacker is familiar with Clifford’s patented PlainView 2 coding system and tries guessing codes at random? No problem. After three
incorrect codes are entered, the system will ignore any further code entries for a short time. So even if the carjacker were to actually stumble upon your
code during this time, he would still not be able to silence your system or restart the engine.
How to set your own valet/disarming PIN code
Your secret valet/disarming PIN code will be used to deactivate BlackJax, enter valet mode and enter programming mode. You may choose any 1-4-digit
PIN code, but the first digit must not be a zero (e.g., 1023 is a valid code, 0123 is not). See User-selectable features. Let’s say you want to set a PIN code of 4301:
1. From the Table of user-selectable features, you would note that the Set a new secret valet/disarming PIN 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 ✱ 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 ✱ button 7 times. To help you count, you will hear a chirp each time you press the ✱
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: ✱✱✱✱ blank, ✱✱✱
blank, blank, ✱ 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 valet/disarming PIN 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.
Your re mote con trols
The 5-button master remote control and the 4-button companion remote are sophisticated miniature radio transmitters each powered by a tiny battery
(12-volt alkaline for the master remote, a 3-volt lithium battery for the companion remote). A weak remote control battery will reduce range (the system
will warn you if the battery in your remote is nearing the end of its useful life, see the Low battery warning section for details). Electrical/radio frequency
interference, obstructions, weather conditions and even sunspots can interrupt the signal from your remote to the system.The remote controls are the keys to
your system. But these remote controls are much more secure than car keys because each incorporates our ACG 2 (Anti-CodeGrabbing 2) technology with
trillions of digital codes for the ultimate protection against remote control cloning devices. You will use your Bullet 4 remote control to arm and disarm the
system, lock and unlock the doors, activate/deactivate the panic feature, enter/exit valet mode and command options such as a remote trunk release, power
window control, electric garage door interface or even remote starting of the engine and heater or air conditioner, among other options.
