FACTTM--False Alarm Control and Test -- One of many patented Clifford innovations, FACT absolutely, positively ends recurring false alarms. --Fingertip command from a typical range of 100 feet. A Pair of 3-Button/3-Channel Remote Controls AntiScanTM -- Some car thieves still use "scanners" that transmit one digital code after another until they hit the one code that disarms the alarm. [. . . ] When you press the momentary side, the switch bounces back to the center position. Entering a digit: To enter a digit, you tap (press and release) on the momentary side of the PlainView switch the number of times corresponding to the numeral of the digit to be entered, followed by pressing to the latched side, then returning the switch to its center position. Entering a code: If your code has only one digit, enter the code as described in "Entering a digit. " If your code has more than one digit, just repeat the above for each digit of your code. 11 To enable valet mode 1. Turn the ignition switch to its "ON" position or start the engine. Enter your secret valet code on the PlainView switch (the LED will turn on), then return the switch to its center position. You now have 10 seconds to press the latched position to enter valet mode. The LED will glow continually for on-going visual confirmation of valet mode. To exit valet mode 1. Turn the ignition switch to its "ON" position or start the engine. The LED will turn off to confirm that the system is now in its normal operating mode. Setting your own secret valet code Since all Clifford systems have the same factory-set code, it is highly advisable that you set your own valet code. You may choose any 1-, 2-, or 3-digit code that does not have any zeros. Simply write down the 1-to-3 digit code you wish to use (remember, no zeros in the code), then perform the following steps. Enter your current valet code (the factory-set code is the single digit 2: two presses of the momentary side, then latched). To help you count, you will hear a single chirp confirmation each time you press the momentary side, for a total of 16 chirps. Immediately after the 16th chirp, press the latched side of the switch, enter your new code. Turn the ignition off after you hear the 1 chirp and the LED has turned off. VERY IMPORTANT: You must immediately test your new secret valet code: Turn on the ignition, enter your new code, then flip the switch to its latched position. If it does not, 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. Example of setting a new valet code: Lets say you want to change the valet code from its original single-digit "2" code to a double-digit code of "31. " You would do the following: Turn the ignition on, enter your current code, tap the momentary side of the PlainView switch 16 times, press the latched side, then enter the new code: momentary, momentary, momentary, latched (3 chirps), momentary, latched (1 chirp), center. Wait 2 seconds for the system to exit program mode (1 chirp and the LED turns off), then turn the ignition off. That's all there is to it, but be sure to perform step 7 above to verify your new code. 12 Optional remote controlled valet mode entry and exit You can even remotely enable or exit valet mode if you have an optional Clifford 4-button/12-channel ACG remote control. All you need to do is transmit channel 9 (two presses of the side LevelShift button, then button 1). In addition to the previously noted indications, two parking light flashes will confirm that you have remotely enabled valet mode, while a single flash confirms exiting of valet mode. Keyless entry in valet mode Even if valet mode is enabled, you can still remotely control the convenience features. For instance, simply press button 1 as if you were disarming and the doors will unlock* (indicated by one parking light flash) and the interior lights will turn on. [. . . ] The parking light flashes will continue to provide visual confirmation of remote controlled arming and disarming. See User-selectable features on pages 17-18. 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 on your remote control instead of the usual button 1. Siren duration: When the system detects an intrusion attempt, the alarm is set to sound for 30 seconds. See the User-selectable features section on pages 17-18. 16 User-selectable features Your SuperNova II allows you to set many of its features to your own personal preferences. [. . . ]
