CLIFFORD Concept 40 - Manual (Page 21)

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. Count the number of blinks in one cycle and refer to the chart on page 18.
SmartPowerUp™ II
If power to the system is ever removed, SmartPowerUp II ensures the system will
automatically restore itself to its previous state when power is restored. So if a thief
disconnects the power and then restores it in an attempt to start the car, the system will
re-arm and instantly sound the siren while immobilizing the vehicle. If your vehicle is to
be serviced by a mechanic, just put the system in valet mode via the remote control (see
Remote controlled valet mode entry and exit on page 15). If the mechanic needs to
interrupt power, your system will automatically return to its valet mode state when
power is restored; there will be no alarm activation and no need to provide your
mechanic with your remote control and instructions on how to use it.
High-output Insignia™ Siren
All the siren electronics are in the system control unit rather than the siren itself. This
protects them from heat, dirt and exposure to the elements (other alarm companies’
sirens are far more susceptible to failure). Your Concept 40 also provides these
additional features:
QuietChirps™: You can control the volume of the normal arm and disarm
chirps. As shipped from the factory, your system issues full-volume chirp
acknowledgments. If you prefer, you may reduce the chirp volume to a level that
is clearly audible, yet less obtrusive. See the User-selectable features section on
pages 20-24.
Long-term chirp silencing: Whenever you wish, you may silence your Concept
40’s arm and disarm chirps until you decide to restore them. The parking light
flashes will continue to provide visual confirmation of remote controlled arming
and disarming. See User-selectable features on pages 20-24.
Remote controlled chirp muting: Remote controlled chirp muting capabilities
are especially valuable when parking late at night in a quiet residential area or any
other time when you want to arm or disarm silently. To arm or disarm silently,
simply press button 3 (channel 3) on your remote control instead of the usual
button 1 (channel 1).
Siren duration: When the system detects an intrusion attempt, the alarm is set to
sound for 30 seconds. However, if you prefer, you may change it to 60 seconds.
See the User-selectable features section on pages 20-24.
