Wel come to the world of

high- technology ve hi cle se cu rity and con ven ience

ongratulations on the purchase of your Concept 600, and thank you for choosing Clifford Electronics World-Class Auto Security for your vehicle security needs! Clifford has long

been recognised as the world’s leading manufacturer of high-technology vehicle security systems and accessories. Buying Clifford products has always meant buying the best, and nowhere is our commitment to technological innovation, reliability and quality more evident than in the astounding Concept 600 — our top-of-the-line Thatcham-evaluated model.

Concept 600 is loaded with protective features and convenience benefits, including: Window RollUp that automatically closes the front two electric windows every time you remotely arm. The remarkable self-adjusting Digital Tilt/Motion Sensor that detects any attempts to tow the vehicle or remove its wheels. Our innovative Wireless FuelGuard Module that makes theft by even the most skilled car thief virtually impossible since there are no wires for the thief to cut or jump! BlackJax anti-carjacking and vehicle recovery system enhances your personal safety and virtually assures your vehicle can be promptly recovered intact. Concept 600 also has our ACG 2™ (Anti-CodeGrabbing) that fights off thieves with code-grabbers (a device similar to those used to “clone” cellular phones). Clifford’s unique PlainView 2 Coded Valet Switch ensures no thief, carjacker or joyrider can turn off your Concept 600 like they can with other car alarm brands. The Smart Self-Powered Medallion Siren with Digital ComLink will detect any theft-related wire tampering and will continue to sound even if the thief were to cut all the wires! Our new optional CliffNet Wizard™ PC interface even lets you test and set all the user-selectable features on your computer screen. Plus there’s remote controlled valet mode, dual-point immobilisation in addition to the Wireless FuelGuard, an electronic interlock to prevent accidental activation of the optional remote boot release, smart automatic locking/unlocking if you ever need to “panic” the system, full-time programming access (even whilst driving), and much, much more. Yet despite all the sophistication, you will find that your Concept 600 is amazingly easy to use: never more difficult than a few presses of a button.

NOTE: Your sys tem MUST be in stalled by an Author ised 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 petrol- or diesel- powered en gines. (BlackJax works on electronic petrol-injected vehicles and will work on most diesel-engine vehicles with the addition of our optional #60-226 adapter).

NOTE: The Installation Certificate document must be completed by your installer at the Authorised Clifford Dealer. Other than the remote controls, this system has no user-serviceable parts. Your Authorised Clifford Dealer can correct any system wiring problems and, if ever needed, can return any malfunctioning component to Clifford Electronics for repair/replacement under the terms printed on the supplied warranty card. Any alterations or additions would automatically invalidate the warranty, antitheft guarantee (if applicable) and invalidate the Installation Certificate.

Main te nance

Your Concept 600 requires no maintenance except for replacement of remote control batteries when they reach the end of their useful life; see the Automatic low battery warning and Remote control battery replacement sections on page 11. This product, like any electrical device in your vehicle, requires that your vehicle 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 and ask them to verify that the charging system (alternator, etc.) is working properly. Also make sure the battery cables and connections are tight and free from corrosion.

Built- in ve hi cle re cov ery/anti- carjacking fea ture

Concept 600’s built-in BlackJax feature provides a safe and effective means of recovering your vehicle after a theft or carjacking. In a carjacking situation, the sooner you are out of the car the better. Don’t resist or take anything with you, just get out and get away. The instant the car door is opened, your Concept 600 takes charge. First it allows the carjacker to drive a short distance, ensuring your safety. Then it repeatedly flashes the brake lights and continuously sounds the siren to caution nearby drivers and draw attention to your stolen vehicle. Then when the carjacker slows for a turn or traffic, it safely shuts down the engine and dynamically prevents it from being restarted. The system will ignore the remote control at this point (since the carjacker most likely took your remote along with your keys).

Even if the carjacker is familiar with our system, your Concept 600 will assure that he cannot restart the engine. Unable to do so, and with your stalled vehicle in the middle of traffic — siren wailing and brake lights flashing — the carjacker has no choice but to abandon your car. (The same occurs to anyone who steals your parked car from you at a petrol station or in a car park, which are the most common carjacking sites). To recover your vehicle, you simply walk a block or two to your car, enter your code, and the system releases control of the vehicle to you.

VERY IMPORTANT: The factory setting for the anti-carjacking feature is OFF. Once you are familiar with the following, we suggest you turn this feature ON (see pages 21-22). When anti-carjacking is on, each time you begin driving you MUST enter your disarming code via the PlainView 2 switch on the dashboard or console (unless the system is in valet mode). You may turn this feature on or off at any time.

Your secret disarming code tells the system that the car is being driven by an authorised person. If you or a passenger opens and closes a car door at any point whilst the engine is running (as would occur in a carjacking attempt), you must again enter your secret code.

En able/dis able the anti- carjacking fea ture

You may enable or disable the BlackJax anti-carjacking feature (see User-selectable features on pages 21-22) or temporarily override it via PlainView 2 Coded Valet Mode

(see page 14).

Your se cret dis arm ing code

Unless the BlackJax anti-carjacking feature is turned off or the system is in valet mode (see page 14), 20 seconds after you switch on the ignition and press the brake (or open and close a door whilst the engine is running), you must enter your secret disarming code to let the system know it is you who is driving.

Your sys tem’s factory- set dis arm ing code is noted on the back cover of this man ual.

Defi ni tions

n Digit:A digit is defined as any number from 0 to 9, inclusive. n Disarming code: A disarming code may be 1 to 4 digits in length, but the first digit

may not be a zero:

A 1-digit code = any number between 1-9 A 2-digit code = any number between 10-99

Page 5

A 3-digit code = any number between 100-999

A 4-digit code = any number between 1000-9999

n PlainView 2 switch: A two-button switch mounted on the dashboard or console.

One of the buttons is marked with a raised ✱, the other is unmarked. Each time you drive your car, you must enter your secret disarming code via the PlainView 2 switch.

n Entering a digit: To enter a digit, you press and release the ✱ button of the

PlainView 2 switch the number of times of the digit to be entered, followed by pressing the unmarked button. To enter a zero, you simply press and release the unmarked button.

n Entering a code: To enter your code, just repeat the above for each digit of your

code.

EX AM PLE: To en ter a code of 1203, you would press and re lease the Plain View 2 switch but tons thusly: ✱ un marked, ✱✱ un marked, un marked, ✱✱✱ un marked.

NOTE: You may NOT se lect a code that be gins with a zero. The first digit of your code must be 1–9.

IM POR TANT: What you MUST do to drive your car

If you have the BlackJax anti-carjacking feature turned on, until you set your own disarming code, you will use the factory-set code noted on the back cover of this manual. To drive your car, do the following:

1. Shut all doors, then start the engine.

2. Enter the factory-set disarming code noted on the back cover of this manual using the

Entering a code: information noted above (you may do this whilst driving, if you wish). The LED will light.

3. The LED will flash on for an instant after entry of the final digit to confirm proper

code entry. You may now drive or continue driving the vehicle.

What you MUST do if you hear 5 si ren chirps while driv ing

If you forget to enter the code, the system will remind you to do so 20 seconds after you begin driving by “chirping” the siren 5 times and flashing the dashboard LED. At this point, you have another 20 seconds to enter your code. When entered, the LED will stop flashing and the siren will chirp once to confirm proper code entry. If the proper code is not entered within 20 seconds after the 5-chirp signal, the engine will shut down as soon as you slow for traffic or a turn. You may enter your disarming code even after the engine is shut down. Once the proper disarming code is entered, you will be able to resume driving.

“Guess ing” your code won’t help a car jacker

What if the carjacker is familiar with Clifford’s patented PlainView 2 coding system and tries guessing codes at random? No problem. After three incorrect codes are entered, the system will ignore any further code entries for a short time. So even if the carjacker were to actually stumble upon your code during this time, he would still not be able to silence your system or restart the engine.

How to set your own se cret dis arm ing code

You may choose any 1-, 2-, 3- or 4-digit code, but the first digit must not be a zero (e.g., 1023 is a valid code, 0123 would not be a valid code). You can also change your code whenever and wherever you want with the procedure noted on pages 21-22.

con tin ued...

Page 6

Ex am ple

Let’s say you want to set a disarming code of 4301. To do so, you would do the following:

1. From the Table of user-selectable features on page 22, you would note that the Set a

new secret disarming/valet code feature is in column 2, row 7.

2. Enter program mode by turning on the ignition, entering your current disarming code,

then pressing and holding the PlainView 2 ✱ button for 3 seconds until you hear a chirp.

3. Select column 2 by pressing the unmarked button twice. After a brief pause, you will

hear 2 chirps to confirm that you have selected feature column 2.

4. Within 5 seconds, select row 7 by pressing and releasing the PlainView 2 ✱ button 7

times. To help you count, you will hear a chirp each time you press the ✱ button. After 7 presses, immediately press the unmarked button, then immediately enter your new code.

Example: To enter 4301 as your new code, you would press the switch buttons in this manner: ✱✱✱✱ un marked, ✱✱✱ un marked, un marked, ✱ un marked.

5. Wait for the 2-chirp confirmation.

6. Turn off the ignition to exit program mode (you’ll hear a 3-chirp confirmation).

7. VERY IMPORTANT: You must immediately test your new valet code: Turn on

the ignition, enter your new code, then press and hold the unmarked button for 3 seconds. The LED will illuminate to indicate the system is in valet mode (see page 14 for information on valet mode). Turn the ignition off. The system is now in valet mode.

If the LED does not light, the new code you programmed and the one you just entered do not match. In such a case, the system reverts to the previous code.

8.Turn the ignition on. The LED will turn off to indicate that the system has exited

valet mode and is now in normal operating mode. You may now turn off the ignition.

Your re mote con trols

The master remote control and the companion remote control are ultra-sophisticated miniature radio transmitters powered by a single miniature battery (a 12-volt alkaline for the master remote control; 3-volt lithium for the companion remote). A weak remote control battery will reduce range (your Concept 600 system will warn you if the remote control battery is nearing the end of its useful life, see page 11 for details). Electrical/radio frequency interference, obstructions, weather conditions and even sunspots can interrupt the signal from your remote control. If this happens, repeatedly press the remote control button several times until the system responds (this works better than holding the button).

The remote controls are the keys to your system. But these remote controls are much more secure than car keys because each incorporates Clifford’s ACG 2™ (Anti-CodeGrabbing 2™) technology with trillions of possible digital codes for the ultimate protection. You will use your Concept 600 remote control to arm and disarm the system, lock and unlock the doors, activate/deactivate the panic feature, close the electric windows, enable/exit valet mode, override one or both Proximity Sensor zones and command options such as a remote boot release, electric garage door interface and even remote starting of the engine and heater or air conditioner, among other options.

TIP: If you press the top of the remote to your chin while pressing the button, you can greatly increase the range since your body acts as a large radio antenna (this is the same principle as a station coming in more clearly when you touch the TV or radio antenna).

How to use your COMPANION re mote con trol

We made controlling basic system functions even easier with the companion remote control. For example to arm/disarm and lock/unlock, just press the button with the lock/unlock symbol:

; to activate the remote boot release option, just press the button with the boot-open symbol: . For less frequently used features, simultaneously pressing a combination of two buttons (as specified in the following section) will do the job.

Re motely con trol ling your Con cept 600

Each of your two remote controls can command several different functions and options.

TO ARM: Press button 1 on the master remote control or button on

the companion remote control. You will hear two chirps and the indicator lights will flash twice. The dashboard LED will flash repeatedly, your vehicle’s power locks will automatically lock and the two windows controlled by the Automatic Window RollUp feature (see page 13) will close.

Page 8

REV C UPDATE PAGE: ONLY PAGES 8, 9, 10, 19 and the back cover change, all other pages same as REV B.

TO DIS ARM: Press button 1 on the master remote control or button on

the companion remote. One chirp and one indicator light flash confirms disarming. In addition, the doors will automatically unlock, the LED will turn off and the interior lights will turn on and stay on for 30 seconds or until you start the engine, whichever occurs first.

TO ARM OR DIS ARM SI LENTLY:

TO AC TI VATE THE PANIC FEA TURE:

TO RE MOTELY OPEN THE BOOT:

TO RE MOTELY START THE EN GINE:

By pressing button 3 on the master remote or pressing both the

button and the ✱ button on the companion remote, you can

arm or disarm your Concept 600 with all the indications previously noted except the chirps.

For three seconds, continually press button 1 on the master remote or button on the companion remote. The indicator lights will flash repeatedly and the siren will blare until you press the button again to turn it off. If the ignition is on (indicating you are in the car), the doors will lock to prevent an assailant from entering (note: some vehicles are unable to lock the doors whilst the ignition is on). If the ignition is off, the doors will unlock, allowing you to enter immediately without fumbling with your keys.

If you have the remote boot release option, pressing button 2 on the master remote or button on the companion remote whilst the system is disarmed will release the boot latch (see Smart boot release option on page 18 for more information). If you do not have the boot release option, you may assign this button to activate one of the other functions noted in column 4 of the Ta ble of User- Selectable Fea tures on page 22, or it can be programmed into a Clifford ACG 2 electric garage door/entry gate opener interface or a Concept 100, 300, 400 or 600 system on your other vehicle.

Button 4 on the master remote or button ✱ on the companion remote is factory-set to activate the IntelliStart 4* remote engine starting accessory. If you do not have this option, you may assign this button to activate one of the other functions noted in column 4 of the Ta ble of User- Selectable Fea tures on page 22, or it can be programmed into a Clifford ACG 2 electric garage door/entry gate opener interface or a Concept 100, 300, 400 or 600 system on your other vehicle.

TO AC TI VATE THE TIMED HEAD LIGHTS:

If you have this option, channel 7 (LevelShift button once, then button 3) on the master remote or button on the companion remote will turn on the headlights for any duration you wish between one second and 4 minutes (the factory setting is 10 seconds; see User-selectable features on pages 21-22). If you do not have this option, you may assign this button to activate one of the other functions noted in column 4 of the Ta ble of User- Selectable Fea tures on page 22, or it can be programmed into a Clifford ACG 2 electric garage door/entry gate opener interface or a Concept 100, 300, 400 or 600 system on your other vehicle.

TO RE MOTELY EN ABLE OR EXIT VALET MODE:

TO RE MOTELY VENT OR OPEN THE WIN DOWS:

TO RE MOTELY TURN SPEECH ON OR OFF:

Channel 9 (LevelShift button twice, then button 1) on the master remote or simultaneously pressing buttons and ✱ on the companion remote is factory-set to enable/exit your Concept 600’s valet mode (see page 14 for details on valet mode). Two indicator light flashes confirm remote enabled valet mode entry, a single flash confirms valet mode exit. If you prefer, you may turn off remote controlled valet mode as noted in the User-selectable features section on pages 21-22 so that the system cannot be placed in valet mode via the remote controls.

If you have the SmartWindows 4 option, channel 6 (LevelShift button once, then button 2) on the master remote or simultaneously pressing buttons and on the companion remote is factory-set to fully open the electric windows if the system is disarmed. If the system is in its armed state when you press this channel or button combination, SmartWindows 4 will vent the windows slightly for ventilation on hot days. Please note that one SmartWindows 4 module will control two electric windows, while the system’s built-in Window RollUp electronics will control two others. Windows controlled by the system’s Window RollUp electronics cannot be remotely opened or vented, only those controlled by the SmartWindows 4 option. SmartWindows 4 is not compatible with some vehicles.

If you have the IntelliVoice 4 speech synthesis option, channel 8 (LevelShift button once, then button 4) on the master remote or simultaneously pressing buttons and on the companion remote control will toggle the voice acknowledgments on/off (i.e., change the system’s arm/disarm confirmations from 2 chirps/1 chirp to verbal “ARMED”/“DISARMED ” confirmations and vice-versa).

TO RE MOTELY OVER RIDE PROX IM ITY SEN SOR ZONES

OTHER FEA TURES AND OPTIONS

Channel 10 (LevelShift button twice, then button 2) on the master remote control or simultaneously pressing buttons and on the companion remote anytime after arming will override the warning zone of the system’s Dual-Zone Proximity Sensor 4. A second press will override both zones (see Re mote con trolled over ride of each Prox im ity Sen sor zone on page 15).

Other features and options can be accessed from the companion remote control and/or master remote control as noted in the chart that follows:

ACG 2™ (Anti- CodeGrabbing 2™)

ACG 2 protects you and your automobile from the most effective and onerous car stealing device ever used by car thieves — a code-grabber.

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 simply plays back the code when you’re gone, instantly disarming the alarm and unlocking the doors. It’s like leaving your keys and remote on the bonnet.

Many 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, Clifford Concept 100, 300, 400 or 600 systems use complex digital signal processing and unbreachable code encryption to randomly change the digital code every time you use the remote control. Your remote controls will never transmit the same code twice, and the control unit will never accept the same remote control code twice. Thus the code recorded and played back by the thief’s code-grabber — even the latest generation smart code-grabbers — will never be accepted by your Concept 600 system.

Auto mat ic re mote con trol low- battery warn ing

If your remote control battery is very low, you will hear a low-pitched chirp whenever you disarm rather than the high-pitched chirp that you normally hear. The system will continue to sound this low-pitched chirp every time you disarm until you replace the battery. Since this is a warning indication, you will hear this low-pitched chirp regardless of whether you have the system set to QuietChirps, LoudChirps or no chirps and even if you use the silent disarming feature (see page 8).

Re mote con trol bat tery re place ment

Replacement of a remote control battery is simple, but any Authorised Clifford Dealer will be happy to do it for you without cost provided you buy the replacement battery at their shop (it’s also a good idea to keep a spare of each battery type in your glove box just in case).

Mas ter re mote:

1.Unscrew the retaining screw on the back of the remote control.

2. Carefully pry apart the remote control case with your fingernails or a small, thin

screwdriver blade near the keyring opening (you may leave the keyring in place).

3. Remove the old battery noting the + and – indications and replace it with the new one.

4. Put the enclosure back together by first aligning the LevelShift button side, then the

top of the remote, then snap the case back together at the bottom.

5. Reinsert the retaining screw but DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

Com pan ion re mote:

1. Insert a small, thin screwdriver blade in the slot near the keyring opening (you may

leave the keyring in place) and turn it to separate the two halves.

2. Remove the old battery noting the + and – indications and replace it with the new one.

3. Put the enclosure back together by first aligning the top of the remote, then snapping

For other drivers of the vehicle in your family, you can purchase additional remote controls from any Clifford Dealer (or ring our UK Customer Service Department on 0800 929949 or 0181 646 8440). Concept 600 responds to as many as four remote controls.

NOTE: Your Concept 600 will re spond only to Concept 100, 300, 400 and 600 type ACG 2 re mote con trols. Older Clif ford ACG and non- ACG re mote con trols are not com pati ble with the Concept 600.

To add a new remote, use the Add new remote feature (column 1, row 1) of the User-selectable features on pages 21-22. You may also assign unused buttons and/or button combinations

from the remote controls of other Concept 100, 300, 400 and 600 systems to your Concept 600 as noted in column 4 of the User-selectable features on pages 21-22.

How to erase the codes of lost or sto len re mote con trols

If one of your Concept 600 remote controls is ever lost or stolen, you can erase it from the system memory to ensure that the missing remote can never again be used to disarm your system. To do so, use the Clear All Remotes feature noted in the Table of User-Selectable Features (feature column 2, row 6) on page 22. This Clear All Remotes feature will erase all remote from the system memory. Then reprogram each remaining and/or replacement remote control as noted in the Adding new remote controls section above.

Two- Point In ter nal AutoIm mo bi li sa tion

Whilst armed, your Concept 600 assures that your vehicle is completely immobilised by automatically locking out both the ignition system and starter motor. The system’s dual internal immobilisation circuits ensure that a thief will not be able to start your vehicle’s engine even if he had a duplicate of your car key. What’s more, even if he were to find the system control unit and tear it out of your vehicle, he still would be unable to start your car’s engine!

Please be aware that, unlike AutoArming described on page 13, AutoImmobilisation occurs 30 seconds after you turn off the ignition regardless of whether you open or close any doors. What’s more, disabling the AutoArming feature has no effect on AutoImmobilisation.

When you remotely disarm your Concept 600 system, the AutoImmobilisation circuits will automatically disengage. You then have 30 seconds in which to start the engine (or turn the ignition switch to its “ON” position).

If more than 30 seconds pass, the immobiliser will automatically reactivate. This will be visually indicated by the LED repeatedly flashing, but at a slower rate than that of the normal rapid “armed” indication flash rate.

To dis arm the Auto Im mo bi liser if it has armed itself, use the re mote con trol to arm and then disarm the system, or turn on the ignition and press button 1 on the master remote control or button on the companion remote control.

Wire less Fu el Guard Mod ule™

Our ingenious Wireless FuelGuard Module makes your vehicle undrivable by interrupting the fuel delivery system whilst the system is armed, and it can’t be defeated even by the most sophisticated thief.

Why not? Because this unique Clifford innovation unfailingly provides reliable fuel pump obstruction without any wires connecting it to the system control unit. That means that a thief would not be able to find the Wireless FuelGuard Module even if he tried locating and tracing the system wires, since there are no wires for him to trace!

Operation is completely automatic and user-transparent.

Make sure to keep the rec ord that your Clif ford in staller pro vides as to the Wireless FuelGuard Module lo ca tion in case your ve hi cle needs fu ture serv ic ing.

En gine Re start Fea ture

Thirty seconds after shutting down the engine, both the AutoImmobilisation electronics and the Wireless FuelGuard Module will engage, preventing engine starting. To restart the engine, simply do the following:

1. Turn your ignition switch to the “ON” position.

2. Press button 1 (master remote control) or button (companion remote control).

This will disengage the immobilisation.

3. You may now start the engine.

Auto matic Win dow Rol lUp

Your Concept 600 has built-in electronics to automatically close two of your vehicle’s electric windows every time you remotely arm the system (on some European vehicles, the system can automatically close all electric windows and the power sunroof with the addition of a relay). If you wish, an optional Window RollUp Module can be added to close a second pair of electric windows.

For safety, the windows will roll up only when you actively arm the system with the remote control; it will not close them if the system AutoArms (see below for more information on AutoArming). Also for safety reasons, if there is an obstruction in one of the windows that is preventing complete closure, the built-in Automatic Window RollUp electronics will automatically halt the window closing.

Auto mat ic Win dow Rol lUp In stant By pass

If you wish, you may arm your Concept 600 without causing the system to automatically close the two windows. This feature comes in handy on hot summer days by allowing you to leave one or both windows slightly open for interior ventilation whilst the system remains armed.

To remotely arm without Automatic Window RollUp, simply turn the vehicle’s ignition switch to “ON” and then “OFF” rapidly. When you do so, you will hear a single chirp confirmation (this action also activates the Instant AutoArming Bypass feature described below). When you then exit the vehicle and arm with the remote control, the system will not attempt to close the windows. The system automatically reverts to normal operation the next time you arm.

AutoArming™

If this feature is enabled and you forget to remotely arm, the system automatically arms itself 30 seconds after the vehicle doors are closed. For your convenience, if you re-open any door(s) within the 30-second countdown, AutoArming restarts the 30-second delay from the beginning after all doors are closed. Concept 600 has these additional AutoArming features:

n AutoArming enable/disable: If you prefer, you may deactivate or reactivate the

AutoArming feature. See User-selectable features on pages 21-22.

n Visual acknowledgment: Five seconds after you exit the vehicle, close all the

doors and the interior light has turned off, the indicator lights will flash twice to confirm the AutoArming countdown is progressing; 25 seconds later, the system will AutoArm.

n Lock upon AutoArming: To ensure you can’t accidentally lock your keys inside

the car, the system is factory-set not to lock the doors upon AutoArming. To change this setting, see User-selectable features on pages 21-22.

n Instant AutoArming bypass: Prevents AutoArming when fuelling the vehicle

and other times when you wish to temporarily bypass the AutoArming feature. To activate Instant AutoArming Bypass, rapidly turn the ignition switch to “ON” then “OFF.” You will hear a single siren chirp to confirm that the system will not AutoArm. Your Concept 600 automatically reverts to its normal operating mode when you next start the engine.

Plain View 2™ Coded Valet Mode

All car alarms have a valet mode that essentially turns off the security features. This mode is also used to turn off the alarm if the system is not responding to the remote control. However, thieves can disable other alarm brands in seconds by simply hotwiring the ignition and flicking the alarm’s easy-to-find “hidden” valet switch.

In contrast, your Concept 600 system has safeguards that ensure a thief cannot enable the valet mode as a way of “turning off” your system. How? To enable valet mode, the driver must first enter the secret disarming code on the PlainView 2 switch (i.e., the same code you use to turn off the BlackJax anti-carjacking feature; see page 4).

When the system is in valet mode, it overrides the anti-carjacking features (see pages 4-5), the AutoArming feature (see page 13) and all other security features. At various times, you will need to switch the system off. For instance, when refuelling or washing your car.

Your sys tem’s factory- set valet/dis arm ing code is noted on the back cover of this man ual.

NOTE: If you tem po rar ily lose the use of your re mote con trols, you can dis arm the sys tem by ena bling valet mode.

To en able valet mode

1. Turn the ignition switch to its “ON” position or start the engine if it is not already

running.

2. Enter your valet/disarming code on the PlainView 2 switch.

3. Continue pressing the unmarked button for 3-4 seconds. Release the button. The LED

will continue to remain on for ongoing visual confirmation of valet mode.

Auto matic exit of the valet mode

In com pli ance with Thatcham re quire ments, the sys tem will auto mati cally exit valet mode the next time that the ig ni tion switch is turned to the “ON” po si tion (e.g., when the en gine is started).

Re mote con trolled valet mode en try and exit

You can even enable or exit valet mode with your master remote control simply by transmitting channel 9 (LevelShift twice, then button 1) on the master remote control or the and ✱ on the companion remote. In addition to the LED indications noted above, two indicator light flashes will confirm that you have remotely enabled valet mode, a single flash confirms valet mode exit. If you prefer, you may turn off remote controlled valet mode as noted in the User-selectable features section on pages 21-22 so that the system cannot be placed in valet mode via the remote control.

Key less en try in valet mode

Even if valet mode is enabled, you can still remotely control the convenience features. For instance, pressing button 1 on the master remote or button on the companion remote as if you were disarming will unlock the doors (indicated by one indicator light flash) and turn on the interior light(s). Press the button again and the doors will lock (confirmed by two flashes). You may also use the other remote control buttons to activate options such as a remote boot release or remote engine starting.

Digi tal Tilt/Mo tion Sen sor

Your Concept 600 is supplied with an exclusive Clifford Electronics achievement in threedimensional movement sensing technology. Until now, the only way to detect jacking up for towing or theft of the wheels was through unreliable mercury or mechanical pendulum switches. These can best be categorized as “no-tech” sensors, since they are extremely prone to both falsing and widely fluctuating sensitivity due to temperature changes. What’s more, these primitive sensors required that the vehicle be parked on a level surface.

In contrast, Clifford’s Digital Tilt/Motion Sensor is truly a leading-edge, state-of-the-art electronic device that integrates in one microchip nanomechanics and a digital signal processing (DSP) microprocessor to instantly and continually analyze all pitch, yaw and motion data. The result is a tilt/movement sensor that, regardless of the conditions, unerringly detects less than one degree of lifting or any minute motion of the vehicle whilst completely ignoring all other conditions that falsely set off all other sensors. Even if you park your vehicle on the steepest hill, the remarkable Digital Tilt/Motion Sensor will accurately respond to the first hint of tampering to reliably protect your vehicle better than any other sensor, bar none. No need for sensitivity adjustments ever. This intelligent sensor continually analyses all conditions and automatically adjusts itself for the maximum sensitivity with absolutely no possibility of false alarms.

Digi tal Dual- Zone Prox im ity Sen sor 4

Your Concept 600 also has our unique Digital Dual-Zone Proximity Sensor 4, which uses digital signal processing to detect movement inside the passenger compartment and very near the vehicle. If a thief were to break a window and either enter or lean into the passenger compartment, the primary zone of this sensor would trigger the full alarm. However, if a thief was lingering very close to your windows, a warning tone would sound.

Be aware that this sensor uses radar waves to detect movement. These waves pass through nonmetallic materials like plastic, carpet, glass and wood. However, metal and metalliccolored paint, metallic-colored plastic and even some metallic window tinting film will interfere with or completely block the radar waves. As such, it is not unusual that the Proximity Sensor may need a little readjustment soon after installation. In some instances, your Clifford installer may need to try a different location for the sensor.

Metal objects above or near the Proximity Sensor will have a significant impact on operation, so you should never place coins, CDs, cassettes (iron oxide tape) or other metallic objects above or near where the sensor is mounted.

Your Authorised Clifford Dealer can make any sensor adjustments needed.

Re mote con trolled over ride of each Prox im ity Sen sor zone

Transmitting channel 10 on the master remote control (LevelShift button twice, then button 2) or button combination and on the companion remote anytime after the system has been armed will override the warning zone of the Proximity Sensor (confirmed with 4 indicator light flashes). This prevents the system from sounding warnings if you must park your vehicle in an area with heavy pedestrian traffic. A second transmission of this channel or button combination will override both zones of the Proximity Sensor (confirmed with another 4 flashes). This comes in handy when you must temporarily leave a pet or a passenger in the vehicle. The sensor zones are automatically restored the next time you arm.

Page 16

False Alarm Pre ven tion & FACT™

With Clifford’s patented FACT (False Alarm Control and Test) feature, you’ll never experience repeated false alarms. If the siren sounds, DO NOT remotely disarm the system; allow it to run for the full 30-second siren duration. Before sounding the siren a second time, the system automatically checks for another activated sensor or trigger to verify that an intrusion is in progress. Should the siren sound again, you will know for sure that someone is tampering with your vehicle. (If you wish, you may turn off FACT, see User-selectable features on pages 21-22.)

How to in ter pret the chirps and in di ca tor light flashes

When you use the remote control, the system responds with chirps (unless the chirp muting feature is turned on) and indicator light flashes. These chirp/flash acknowledgments mean:

Chirps/flashes Meaning

2 and then 4

You have disarmed the system OR (flash only) you have remotely exited valet mode (see page 14)

You have armed the system OR (flashes only) you have remotely entered valet mode (see page 14)

Armed but there is a door open (if there was a 5-sec. delay) OR the sensor is malfunctioning (if there was a 10-sec. delay) (see Smart

AutoTesting on page 17) Disarmed but there was an intrusion attempt whilst you were away (see

Smart prior intrusion attempt on page 17) Armed but the bonnet or boot is ajar (see Smart AutoTesting on page 17)

OR (flashes only) remote Proximity Sensor zone override (see page 15) 20 seconds to engine shutdown: enter your disarming code IMMEDIATELY

(see page 5)

How to in ter pret the LED status in di ca tor

The LED mounted on your car’s dashboard or console will inform you of the system status:

LED Condition Meaning

Off On

Flashing rapidly

(ignition off)

Flashing slowly

(ignition on or off)

Flashing rapidly

(ignition on)

Pause between slow

flashes (ignition on)

To conserve vehicle battery power (the LED draws more current than the entire control unit), if the system has remained continuously armed for 48 hours, the flash rate will automatically slow to half the normal rate. After 96 hours, it slows to one-quarter.

System is disarmed and in normal operating mode (i.e., valet mode is off) Valet mode is on, the vehicle may be entered without having to disarm

System is armed and protecting your vehicle

System is disarmed but the two AutoImmobilisation points and the Wireless FuelGuard have been engaged (see page 12)

Either a malfunction (see Smart AutoTesting on page 17) or an intrusion was attempted (see Smart prior intrusion attempt alert on page 17)

Auto mat ic Battery- Saving Mode

Page 17

Smart Au toTest ing™

Each time you remotely arm the system, it tests all triggers and sensors. If the bonnet or boot is open when you remotely arm, the system will immediately alert you of the

problem by sounding 4 chirps and 4 indicator light flashes instead of the usual 2 and 2. If a door is ajar, you will receive the usual 2 chirps and flashes, then, 5 seconds later, there will be 4 chirps and 4 flashes. (This door ajar warning will not work on vehicles that have factory-delayed courtesy lights). If a sensor is malfunctioning, you will receive the usual 2 chirps and 2 flashes, then, 10 seconds later, there will be 4 chirps and 4 flashes.

NOTE: Since this is a warn ing in di ca tion, you will hear the 4 chirps even if you use the chirp muting feature.

n Specific malfunction identification: The system can also indicate the specific

trigger or sensor that is malfunctioning. If you get the 4-chirp/4-flash signal upon arming, perform the following to identify the malfunctioning trigger or sensor:

1. Remotely disarm, then turn on the ignition. The LED status indicator inside your

vehicle will be flashing, pause, then repeat.

2. Count the number of flashes in one cycle between pauses (for your convenience, the

flash cycle repeats a total of 5 times) and refer to the chart below:

LED flashes Meaning

1 flash 2 flashes 3 flashes

4 flashes*

5 flashes 6 flashes 7 flashes 8 flashes 9 flashes

Auto mat ic mal func tion by pass with AutoRe Moni tor ing™

To provide the utmost protection even if a system component malfunctions, the system will automatically bypass any faulty point and arm all other triggers and sensors to provide the utmost possible protection until you can have the system serviced by your local Authorised Clifford Dealer. If you accidentally armed with the bonnet, boot or a door open, just close the open point (no need to disarm-and-rearm) and the system will again monitor that point.

Smart prior in tru sion at tempt 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 flash 1-10 times, pause, then repeat the flash cycle 4 more times. Count the number of flashes in one cycle and refer to the chart above.

Page 18

Multiple- event To tal Re call™

Your Concept 600 system’s memory records the identity of the last eight activated or malfunctioning triggers and sensors, which allows your installer to instantly track down malfunctions. To identify the triggers and sensors held in the system’s memory, use the following procedure:

1. Remotely arm and disarm while pressing and holding the unmarked button on the PlainView 2 switch.

2. The LED will flash 1-10 times to indicate the most recently activated point, pause, flash 1-10 times to indicate the second most recently activated point, and so on.

3. Write down the number of flashes between pauses and refer to the chart on the previous page.

AutoLock and Aut oUn Lock

Please note: The AutoLock and AutoUnLock features are not available on some vehicles, such as Volkswagen and Audi.

For your safety and that of your passengers, the doors automatically lock after you begin driving (when the engine reaches a predetermined RPM). If you prefer, you may set AutoLock to lock the doors the instant you turn on the ignition (see User-selectable features on pages 21-22). When you turn the ignition off, AutoUnLock automatically unlocks the doors.

To suit your preferences, you may turn on or off either or both the AutoLock and/or AutoUnLock features. If you have the optional DataPort connector and CliffNet Wizard software you can even adjust whether the doors lock at a higher or lower engine speed (see Optional CliffNet Wizard on page 19).

Smart boot re lease op tion

If the optional remote boot release feature was installed, you may use button 2 (master remote control) or button (companion remote control) to remotely release the boot latch.

Your system has a built-in electronic interlock to prevent unintentional activation of the remote boot release when you drive, or when the system is armed. This interlock requires installer programming, so if you have the remote boot release option, you may want to verify that it will not activate when the system is armed.

Smart Powe rUp™ 2

If power to the system is ever removed, SmartPowerUp 2 ensures that your Concept 600 system automatically restores 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 whilst immobilising the vehicle. If your vehicle is to be serviced, just put it in valet mode. If your mechanic must interrupt power, the system will automatically return to its valet mode state when power is restored; there will be no alarm activation.

Op tional Cliff Net Wiz ard™ & Da ta Port

If you opted to have the Clifford DataPort interface connector installed with your Concept 600 system, you can use our CliffNet Wizard software to access your system through your PC (Microsoft Windows™ required). Doing so provides a wealth of benefits:

n Point-and-Click Feature Programming — Programming the system’s many

user-selectable features is easy with the PlainView 2 Switch. But setting and selecting these features via the optional CliffNet Wizard is a true joy. The intuitive graphical user interface of CliffNet Wizard will actually show you, on your PC screen, the on/off and other settings of each user-programmable feature. You can change programmable settings simply by mouse-clicking the graphical button for each feature. Now you can customise features, add or delete remote controls, change remote control button assignments, set timers, adjust the RPM level at which the vehicle doors AutoLock (something not possible via the standard PlainView 2 Switch programming), view a chronological history of trigger and sensor activations, and much more whilst actually having fun!

n SecureAccess™ — What if a clever thief were to try using his laptop to control your

Concept 600 system? We know that could happen. That’s why we doubly protect access to your system. In order to “connect” with the control unit, the system must first be disarmed with your remote control and your secret valet/disarming code must be entered.

If you are interested in learning more about these software capabilities and feature enhancements to your Concept 600, you’ll find extensive details at our Internet website at www.clifford.com/wizard.

If you already have this option, please refer to the CliffNet Wizard manual and/or online help for specific operating instructions (you may also download any enhancements or revisions to CliffNet Wizard from our website at www.clifford.com/wizard).

Timer op tions

The system’s built-in electronic timer can be optionally wired to provide re mote con trolled timed head light activation or one of several other custom functions. Ask your Authorised Clifford Dealer for further details.

Re mote con trolled timed head light activation option

Your Concept 600 system’s built-in electronic timer can be wired through an optional relay to provide remote controlled timed headlight activation for any duration you wish between 1 second and 4 minutes. This handy feature allows you to remotely light your way to and from the vehicle by pressing the LevelShift button once, then button 3 (master remote control) or button (companion remote control).

Page 20

Smart Self- Powered Me dal lion Si ren with Digi tal Com Link

This siren has its own built-in back-up battery, so even if a thief cuts all the wires, the siren will continue to wail. Furthermore, this unique Clifford-designed and manufactured siren has all these important additional enhancements:

n Unbreachable Digital ComLink: Clifford’s ingenious serial communications link

ensures that — if the system fuse is pulled, or if power to the system is interrupted, or if any siren wire is tampered with whilst the system is armed — the siren will instantly activate for five minutes. However, if the system is disarmed and power is interrupted for authorised servicing, the siren remains silent. This eliminates the need for a special separate shutoff key common to other battery-backed sirens. This ingenious Clifford feature guards against any possibility of a thief tampering with your system siren.

n Smart-charging: Other battery-backed sirens continually draw charging current

from your vehicle’s battery. In time, this can drain the car’s battery. Clifford’s Smart Self-Powered Medallion Siren only draws charging current whilst the vehicle’s ignition is on, i.e., whilst you’re driving. This prevents battery drain.

n Automatic low battery warning: If at any time the siren’s back-up battery

voltage is very low, the usual arm and disarm chirps will be automatically muted to alert you of the problem. Once the back-up battery is properly charged, the chirps will automatically be restored.

n Remote siren silencing: If the system is triggered by a non-threatening event, you

can silence the siren without having to remotely disarm and then re-arm. Simply press button 1 (master remote control) or button (companion remote control) whilst the siren is sounding. You’ll hear two chirps (the usual armed indication) to confirm the system has remained armed. If, however, you press this button whilst the siren is sounding and either the vehicle’s ignition is on or the bonnet, boot or a door is open, you will instead hear 4 chirps to indicate that this may indeed be a genuine theft attempt.

n User-selectable chirp volume: As shipped from the factory, your system issues

QuietChirp™ acknowledgments. If you prefer, you may select full-volume LoudChirp™ acknowledgments. See the User-selectable features section on pages 21-22.

n Long-term chirp silencing: Whenever you wish, you may silence the arm and

disarm chirps until you decide to restore them. Indicator light flashes continue to provide visual confirmation of remote arming and disarming. See User-selectable features on pages 21-22.

n Remote controlled chirp muting: Remote chirp muting capabilities are

especially valuable when parking late at night in a quiet residential area or at any other time when you want to arm or disarm silently. To arm or disarm silently, simply press button 3 (master remote control) or simultaneously press buttons and ✱ (companion remote control) instead of the usual arming/disarming button.

n Patented automatic noise abatement: The siren electronics limit alarm

sounding to five 30-second siren duration cycles even if a door is left open in the wake of an intrusion. This ensures against car battery drain or vehicle towing due to noise pollution ordinances. Your Concept 600 will then automatically reset itself to monitor all other triggers and sensor inputs to continue to provide the utmost possible protection.

User- selectable fea tures

Concept 600 lets you set many of its features to your own preferences. Once you’ve changed a few settings, you’ll find that programming Concept 600 is so easy you can even do it whilst driving! The system features are preprogrammed as noted by the bold type in the Table of user-selectable features on page 22. To change any of the settings, use the steps noted below. To restore the feature to its factory setting, just repeat the procedure.

NOTE: For even greater programming ease and even more system control, consider the CliffNet Wizard option noted on page 19.

How to change a user- selectable fea ture:

Briefly, here’s how it will work:

• You will pick a feature from the Table on page 22, noting the feature’s column and

row numbers.

• You’ll enter program mode by entering your valet/disarming code (see pages 4-5)

and pressing the ✱ button of the PlainView 2 switch until you hear a chirp.

• Next you’ll press the unmarked button a number of times identical to the column

number, then the ✱ button a number of times equal to the row number.

That’s all there is to it! After you enter the feature’s column and row numbers, you’ll hear either one chirp to indicate that the feature has been turned off, or two chirps if turned on.

Step- by- step pro gram ming in struc tions

1. Refer to the Table of user-selectable features on page 22 and make note of the column (across) number and the row (down) number of the feature(s) you wish to program.

2. Turn the ignition on, or start the engine (skip this step if the engine is running).

3. Enter your valet/disarming code (see pages 4-5), then press and hold the ✱ button of the PlainView 2 switch for about 3 seconds until you hear a siren chirp. Release the button. You are now in the “Feature Select” position.

4. Select the feature column: Press and release the unmarked button of the PlainView 2 switch the same number of times as the column number. Pause. You will hear the same number of chirps as the column number you have selected, audibly confirming your selection.

5. Select the feature row: Press and release the ✱ button the same number of times as the feature’s row number. You’ll will hear a chirp each time you press.

NOTE: You have 5 sec onds to en ter the row number af ter se lect ing the col umn number. If you wait too long, the sys tem jumps back to the “Fea ture Se lect” po si tion (this is in di cated with 3 chirps). If you wait an other 60 sec onds, the sys tem will exit pro gram mode.

6. Pause . You will hear either one or two chirps: Two chirps = ON, one chirp = OFF

(If there is a NOTE for the selected feature, perform the actions noted).

Some fea tures, such as Chirps (col umn 2, row 1) have mul ti ple set tings. Re se lect the fea ture ad di tional times to prog ress through each set ting.

7. You may now select another feature or exit program mode: a. To select another feature in that same column, repeat step 5 within the next 5

seconds (after 5 seconds, 3 chirps mean you are back to the “Feature Select” position). b.To select a different feature column, go to step 4. c.To exit program mode, turn the ignition off (you’ll hear 3 chirps and the LED will

turn off). If driving, just wait 60 seconds for automatic exiting of program mode.

If you make an er ror, just turn off the ig ni tion and start again.

Immediately reselect channel 13 on the remote and transmit it a second time (you will hear a 2-chirp confirmation). Channel 13 of the other car’s remote will now arm/disarm your Concept 600.

NOTE 5:The features in this column allow you to control your Concept 600 with a new companion remote or any remote control of a Concept 100, 300, 400 or 600 system on

your other vehicle(s). Just select the function you wish, then transmit the unused channel on the other remote that you want to use to perform that function (you’ll hear the chirps noted). NOTE: You must first set a channel on the remote that will arm/disarm the system (column 4, row 1) before these others will be accepted.
