CLIFFORD cyber Arrow 3 - Manual (Page 3)

NOTE: Your sys tem MUST be in stalled by an Authorized Clif ford Dealer in ac cor dance with the in struc tions we sup ply
them. The sys tem is in tended for auto mo biles with a 12- volt bat tery and gasoline- or diesel- powered en gine. Other
than the re mote con trols, this sys tem has no user- serviceable parts. Your Authorized Clif ford Dealer can cor rect any
sys tem wir ing prob lems and, if ever needed, can re turn any mal func tion ing com po nent to Clif ford Elec tron ics for

Main te nance
Your Clifford system requires no maintenance except for periodic replacement of the remote control batteries. This product, like any electrical device in
your vehicle, requires your car battery be in proper working order and fully charged. To ensure proper operation, periodically have your vehicle battery
“load-checked” at any local garage/mechanic. Also make sure the battery cables and connections are tight and free from corrosion.
Wel come to the world of
high- technology ve hi cle se cu rity and con ven ience
C
ongratulations on the purchase of your Clifford Electronics mobile security/convenience system. Clifford Electronics has long been recognized as the
leading manufacturer of high-technology vehicle security systems. Our commitment to technological innovation, quality and reliability is clearly evident
in your Clifford system. Yet despite all its sophistication, your system is amazingly easy to use, never more difficult than a few presses of a button.
Your re mote con trols
The two 3-button remote controls are sophisticated miniature radio transmitters each powered by a 3-volt lithium battery. 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 Arrow 3
remote control to arm and disarm the system, lock and unlock the doors, activate/deactivate the panic feature, enable/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.
Re motely con trol ling your Clif ford system
TO ARM: Press button . Upon arming: two siren chirps, two parking light flashes, dashboard LED flashes repeatedly and doors lock.
TO DIS ARM: Press button . Upon disarming: one chirp, one parking light flash, LED turns off, doors unlock and the interior lights turn on.
TO ARM OR
DIS ARM SI LENTLY: Simultaneously press both the button and the ✱ button to arm or disarm without chirp acknowledgments.
TO PANIC: For three seconds, continually press button . The parking lights will flash repeatedly and the siren will blare for 30 seconds
(American model) or until you press the button again (European model). If the ignition is on (indicating you are in the car), the
doors will automatically lock to prevent an assailant from entering (note: some vehicles are unable to lock the doors while the
ignition is on). If the ignition is off, the doors will unlock, allowing you to enter immediately without fumbling with your keys.
TO RE MOTELY
OPEN THE TRUNK: If you have this option, press button while the system is in its disarmed state.
TO RE MOTELY
START THE EN GINE: If you have this option, press button ✱ to remotely start the engine (or shut it down if idling under the control of IntelliStart 4).
Before remote starting, be sure to see the Remote Engine Starting DOs and DON’Ts noted in the IntelliStart 4 user’s manual.
TO TURN VALET
MODE ON OR OFF: Simultaneously press buttons and ✱ to enable/exit valet mode (see page 5 for information on valet mode).
TO RE MOTELY OPEN
OR VENT WIN DOWS: If you have this option, press buttons and after disarming to fully open the windows controlled by SmartWindows 4.
On hot days, press this button combination right after arming to vent the windows slightly while the system remains armed.
ACG 2 (Anti- CodeGrabbing 2™)
ACG 2 protects you and your automobile from code-grabbing devices. Code-grabbers literally record, from hundreds of feet away, the code sent by your
car alarm remote control (code-grabbers are very similar to, but simpler than, cellphone “cloning” devices). The thief then plays back the code when
you’re gone, instantly disarming the alarm and unlocking the doors. It’s like leaving your keys and remote in the door. Many non-Clifford alarms can be
defeated that easily, and some of the latest “smart” code-grabbers can even decipher the code hopping/jumping sequence used by other car alarm
manufacturers. In contrast, your Arrow 3 uses complex digital signal processing and unbreachable code encryption to randomly change the digital code
every time you use the remote control. Your remotes will never transmit the same code twice, and the control unit will never accept the same code twice.
Thus the code played back by the code-grabber — even the latest generation smart code-grabbers — will never be accepted by your Arrow 3 system.
