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.

ongratulations on the purchase of your Clifford Electronics mobile convenience system.
Clifford Electronics has long been recognized as the leading manufacturer of high-

C

technology vehicle security and convenience systems. Our commitment to technological
innovation, quality and reliability is clearly evident in your Clifford system. Yet despite its
sophistication, your system is easy to use, never more difficult than a press of a button.

Your re mote con trols

The 4-button remote controls are sophisticated miniature radio transmitters each powered by
a tiny lithium battery. A weak remote control battery will reduce range. Electrical/radio
frequency interference, obstructions, weather conditions and even sunspots can interrupt the
signal from your remote to the system.
