Op tional Se cu rity Enhancements
Your system has built-in security elements to offer protection against theft. One of these
elements is the built-in starter immobilizer circuit that inhibits starting of the vehicle if it was
locked with the Clifford remote. A second security element ensures that, if the vehicle is
idling under the control of your system, if someone were to open the hood or enter the
vehicle and attempt to drive it without the key, the system would shut down the engine.
However, you can add additional elements to further protect your vehicle, such as:
Sen sors
Your system will accept any or all of these optional sensors that detect tampering and theft
attempts. Triggering of a sensor while “armed” (i.e., after the doors have been locked with the
remote or have been locked by the AutoArm & Lock feature) will immediately sound the car
horn or optional siren for 30 seconds.
n
Piezo Sensor:
Detects theft-related impacts and vibrations and will sound the car
horn or optional siren for 30 seconds.
n
Glass Tampering Sensor:
Today’s thieves shatter vehicle windows with a small
metal punch device that does not create any vibrations for an impact sensor to detect.
The Glass Tampering Sensor detects the sound of glass breaking, and glass tampering
attempts, and will trigger the 30-second horn/siren response.
n
Digital Dual-Zone Proximity Sensor 4:
Detects movement inside the passenger
compartment and very near the vehicle. If a thief were to lean into the passenger
compartment, the primary zone of this sensor would trigger the 30-second horn/siren
response. However, if a thief was lingering very close to your windows, a one-second
honk of the horn will sound to let him know to back off. Since it can “see” through
glass and canvas, this sensor is particularly well suited for use in convertibles and other
open or soft-sided vehicles (targa, T-top and Jeep-like vehicles).
n
Digital Tilt/Motion Sensor:
Detects less than one degree of lifting or any minute
motion of the vehicle while completely ignoring all other conditions that falsely set off all
other sensors. Even if you park on a hill, the Digital Tilt/Motion Sensor will accurately
respond to the first hint of tampering to reliably protect your wheels and entire vehicle.
To prevent “falsing,” any optional sensors are bypassed when the engine is remotely started.
Op tional Si ren
For a much greater attention-getting sound, you may want to considering having your Clifford
dealer install the optional alarm siren. This also replaces the horn beep confirmations with
siren “chirps,” which make your system sound like a genuine alarm to passersby.
