Stan dard Fea tures of the Con cept 50x
q✔ Thatcham-Evaluated — The Concept 50x complies with the British
Insurance Industry’s Criteria for Vehicle Security as evaluated by
Thatcham, the Motor Insurance Repair Research Centre.
q✔ Lifetime Warranty — For as long as you own the vehicle, Clifford will
repair or replace the control unit and remote controls free of charge (see
warranty card for full details).
q✔ FACT — False A larm Control and Test — One of many patented Clifford
innovations, FACT absolutely, positively ends recurring false alarms.
q✔ A Pair of 4-Button/12-Channel Remote Controls — For fingertip command
from a distance.
q✔ Anti-CodeGrabbing (ACG) with Random Code Encryption — Today’s
criminals are shifting from code scanning to a new, much more efficient
method of electronic thievery: “code-grabbing.” When you use a car
alarm remote control, it transmits a digital code to your alarm. A thief
with a code-grabber can record that code right off the air from hundreds
of metres away, then play it back when you’re gone to disarm the alarm
and unlock the doors. Within seconds, your car is just another theft
statistic. Fortunately, Clifford’s Anti-CodeGrabbing (ACG) randomly
changes the transmitted code every time you press any of the remote
control buttons. And since these codes are selected by the system’s
microprocessor from an electronic file containing several trillion codes,
the remote control
control unit
code-grabbing utterly useless against the Clifford Concept 50x.
NEVER sends the same code twice, and the system
NEVER accepts the same code twice. That makes
q✔ Built-In Two-Point AutoImmobiliser — For the utmost in theft prevention,
two AutoImmobilisation circuits interrupt both the starter and
ignition/fuel pump whilst the system is armed. Even if a thief were to pull
the fuses or cut all the wires, the starter and ignition/fuel pump remain
immobilised.
n Failure- Proof Driv ing Safety— Even in the unlikely event of a system
malfunction, the AutoImmobiliser will not stop the engine whilst the vehicle
is being driven.

q✔ UltraSecure Coded Valet Mode — Requires a code that you may select to put
the system in valet mode or program in an additional remote. This ensures
that no thief can turn off your Concept 50x as they can with other alarms.
n Re mote Con trolled Valet Mode En try and Exit— With just a press of a button on
your remote control, you can enter or exit valet mode. Indicator light flashes
visually confirm valet mode entry and exit.
q✔ Dual-Zone Proximity Sensor— Two sensor zones provide full protection: If
someone is lurking near your car, the system will sound a warning tone.
But if a thief actually leans into the passenger compartment, the system
will instantly blast the siren. It is impervious to wind and temperature
variations that cause ultrasonic sensors to false alarm.
q✔ Glass Tampering Sensor — Can detect attempts to break any of the
vehicle’s windows. An optional second microphone is available for larger
vehicles, such as estate vehicles.
q✔ Dual-Mode “Chirp” Silencing —Whenever you wish, you may press a
button on the remote control to arm or disarm the system silently. It’s
perfect when parking at night in a quiet residential area. Or, if you prefer,
you may turn off the chirps on a long-term basis until you wish to turn
them back on.
q✔ Remote Door Locking/Unlocking with Built-in Relays — No more fumbling
with keys in the dark or bad weather! A single press of a button on the
remote control simultaneously arms your system and locks the doors.
Another press disarms and unlocks.
n User- Selectable AutoLock— Automatically locks the doors the instant you turn
on the ignition to start the engine.
n User- Selectable Aut oUn Lock — Unlocks when you turn off the engine.
q✔Smart Self-Powered Siren with Unbreachable Digital ComLink —
Continuous two-way digital communication between the system and the
siren assures that if, at any time, the system fuse is pulled or any siren
wire is cut, the siren will instantly activate for five minutes. Yet when the
system is disarmed and power is interrupted, the siren will remain silent.
n Auto matic Low Bat tery Warn ing: If the siren’s back-up battery voltage is low,
the normal arm and disarm chirps will be muted to alert you of the problem.
Once recharged, the chirps will automatically be restored.

q✔ Smart Remote Boot Release Capability — Assures that the optional remote
boot release can be activated only if the system is in its disarmed state, thus
avoiding the possibility of falsely triggering the system. This feature also
ensures that the boot release cannot be remotely activated whilst driving.
q✔ Remote Window/Sunroof Closure Capability — On certain vehicles
(including several models of Mercedes Benz, Jaguar, Volkswagen, Audi
and BMW), the integrated timer and an optional relay can be used to
automatically close the power windows and sunroof every time you
remotely arm.
q✔ QuietChirp— Whenever you desire, you may choose to lower the decibel
volume of the arm and disarm chirps to a level that is clearly audible but less
obtrusive than the full-volume chirps. All it takes is a few flicks of a switch.
q✔ User-Selectable AutoArming— Automatically arms itself “passively” if
you forget and has all these additional features:
n AutoArming En able/Dis able — You may disable or re-enable the AutoArming
feature with just a few flicks of a switch.
n AutoArm & Lock — You may set the system to automatically lock the doors
every time the system AutoArms.
n Vis ual In di ca tion— Two indicator light flashes signal that the 30-second
countdown to AutoArming has started.
n In stant AutoArm By pass — Just a quick turn of the ignition switch will bypass
AutoArming for one cycle — perfect when fueling the vehicle. AutoArming
is automatically restored the next time you park.
q✔ Patented Smart Prior Intrusion Attempt Alert — When you return to your
vehicle and remotely disarm, a special chirp and indicator light flash
sequence will audibly and visually alert you if an intrusion attempt was
foiled whilst you were away. Your Concept 50x will even identify the
specific trigger or sensor that detected the intrusion attempt.
q✔ Remote Controlled Courtesy Lighting — For your personal safety and
convenience, when you remotely disarm your Concept 50x, the interior lights
turn on and stay on until you start the engine or 30 seconds, whichever
occurs first.

q✔ Built-In Indicator Light Flasher — On-board relay and circuitry will visually
confirm door lock and system status.
q✔ Patented Smart AutoTesting — Automatically tests all system triggers and
sensors every time you remotely arm and warns you if you accidentally
arm your Concept 50x system with the bonnet or boot open. If there is a
genuine trigger or sensor malfunction, the system will specifically
identify the problem, thereby eliminating time-consuming and costly
trouble-shooting.
q✔ Patented Malfunction AutoBypass with Automatic Monitoring — In the
unlikely event of a trigger or sensor malfunction, Concept 50x
automatically bypasses the malfunction and arms all other points to
continue relentless protection of your vehicle. If you simply left the
bonnet, boot or a door open when you armed, just close it and the system
will again monitor that trigger point.
q✔ Multiple-Event TotalRecall— Concept 50x’s memory stores the identity of
the last eight trigger and sensor activations. This provides an invaluable
diagnostic means, since, whenever you wish, the system will visually
identify the activated triggers and sensors in reverse chronological order.
q✔ Patented Remote Control Code Learning with MultiRemote Recognition —
Just a few flicks of a switch lets you match to the system up to 4 different
12-channel Clifford ACG remote controls. Just as easily, a lost or stolen
remote control can be deleted.
q✔ Multiple-Car Control — You may use the same remote to control Concept
50x systems on up to six of your other vehicles.
q✔ High-Luminescence LED Status Indicator — Adds visual deterrence and
identifies system status.
q✔ Patented SmartPowerUp II — When power to the system is disconnected,
the system’s nonvolatile memory always remembers the security system’s
last state (armed or disarmed) and returns to that 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 instantly re-arm.
