Using Your XL1000 Security System
2-Button/3-Channel Remote Control
The 2-button/3-channel remote control is a miniature radio transmitter with a range
of up to 100 feet. Obstructions, interference or a weak battery will reduce the range.
Your 2-button/3-channel remote control is the key to your security system. It is an
ingenious user-friendly device that transmits three distinct and unique digital codes.
Use it to arm or disarm the system, lock or unlock the doors, activate its panic
feature or control options such as the SmartWindows II accessory and a remote
trunk release.

Press button I once. You will hear two chirps and the parking
lights will flash twice. The dashboard LED will flash repeatedly and the car doors will automatically lock. Any attempt to
break into the vehicle will immediately disable the starter,
sound the siren and flash the parking lights.
Press button I again. One chirp and one flash of the parking
lights will confirm disarming. In addition, the car doors will
automatically unlock and the interior lights will turn on and
stay on for 30 seconds or until you start the engine.
Press button II to activate a remote controlled option, such as a
remote trunk release (be sure to disarm the XL1000 before remotely releasing the trunk latch).
Simultaneously press buttons I+II (or button III of the optional
4-channel remote). The system will arm or disarm with all the
indications noted above except the chirp acknowledgments.
Press button I for 3 seconds. The lights will flash repeatedly
and the siren will blare for 30 seconds or until you press button I again to turn it off.
If you have an optional Clifford 4-button/4-channel remote
control, press button IV to activate another remote controlled
option, such as the Clifford IntelliStart™ remote engine/
heater/defroster/air conditioner starter accessory (refer to the
IntelliStart’s operating instructions).

AutoLock/AutoUnlock
For your safety and that of your passengers, the system automatically locks the doors
when you turn on the ignition switch to start the engine and unlocks them once the
ignition is turned off. If you prefer, you may turn off the AutoLock/AutoUnlock
feature. See the User-Selectable Features section on pages 6-7.
AutoArming™
If you forget to remotely arm, the system will arm itself automatically (“passively”)
30 seconds after the vehicle doors are closed. If you re-open any door(s) within the
30-second countdown, AutoArming will restart from the beginning once all doors
are closed. This ensures you’ll never accidentally leave your vehicle unprotected.
AutoArming Enable/Disable: If you prefer, you may deactivate or reactivate
AutoArming. To do, see User-Selectable Features on pages 6-7.
AutoArm & Lock: 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 6-7.
NOTE: To prevent AutoArming of the system when fueling the vehicle, either
enable valet mode or leave one of the doors open (the system AutoArms 30
seconds after all doors are closed).
Protected Valet Mode
Whenever the alarm is put in protected valet mode, all of the alarm functions are
bypassed, preventing AutoArming and accidental activation of the alarm. Use the
valet mode whenever your car is either to be serviced by mechanics, handed over
to car wash personnel or driven by valet attendants. It also comes in handy if you
ever lose your remote control or its battery dies. If you have the AutoArming
feature set on, when fueling your car, either put the alarm in valet mode or leave
the driver’s door open (the system will not AutoArm if a door is open). Be sure to
ask your installer to show you where the valet switch is located
To turn ON the protected valet mode:
1. Insert your ignition key and turn it to the “ON” position, or start the engine.
2. Flip the valet switch.
3. The LED will glow continuously to indicate that the alarm is in valet mode.
To turn OFF the protected valet mode:
1. Insert your ignition key and turn it to the “ON” position, or start the engine.
2. Flip the valet switch.
3. The LED will turn off to indicate that the alarm is in normal operating mode.
Keyless Entry in Valet Mode: Even if valet mode is on, you will still be able
to remotely control all the convenience features. For instance, simply press button I as if you were arming or disarming and your car’s doors will lock or unlock. You can also use button II to activate an option.

Tampering Warning
Normally, the system immediately sounds its siren at the first inkling of an intrusion attempt. However, you may set the system to issue a rapid five-chirp warning
whenever the system detects tampering to the exterior of your vehicle. If there is
any further tampering within the next 30 seconds, or if a door, the hood or trunk is
opened at any time, your system will sound a continuous 125dB siren blast. To
select the mode of your choice, see User-Selectable Features on pages 6-7.
NOTE: Turning on the Tampering Warning feature overrides the FACT feature, and vice-versa.
FACT™— False Alarm Control and Test
With FACT, you’ll never experience repeated false alarms. If your siren goes off,
DO NOT remotely disarm the system; allow it to run for the full 30-second siren
duration. The system automatically checks for another activated trigger before
sounding the siren a second time. Should the siren sound again, you will know for
sure
that someone is tampering with your vehicle.
Automatic Starter Interrupt
The system automatically prevents engine starting while the system is armed. Only
after disarming will the system allow the engine to be started with the ignition key.
Smart AutoTesting™
Each time you remotely arm your vehicle, it will perform a series of tests on all
triggers and sensors. If a

Specific Malfunction Identification: The system not only tells you if the
problem is a trigger or sensor, but it can also indicate the specific trigger or
sensor that is malfunctioning. This feature saves you time and money since
your installer won’t have to spend hours trying to determine where the problem is. Here’s how it works:
1. You receive the 4-chirp/4-flash signal upon remote disarming.
2. The LED indicator inside the vehicle will be flashing, pause, then repeat.
3. Count the number of blinks in one cycle between pauses (for your convenience, the blink cycle repeats 5 times) and refer to the chart below:
Number of LED blinks between pauses Malfunction
1 blink
2 blinks
3 blinks
Vibration/impact sensor or optional sensor
Door trigger
Trunk or hood trigger

Automatic Malfunction Bypass
To provide the utmost protection even if a system component malfunctions, the
system will automatically bypass the faulty point and arm all
other
triggers and
sensors until you can have the system serviced by your local Authorized Dealer.
Smart Prior Intrusion Attempt Alert
When you remotely disarm, if you hear 3 chirps instead of the usual one chirp it
means that a trigger or sensor was activated in your absence. When you enter the
vehicle, the LED will blink several times, pause, then repeat the blink cycle 4
more times. Count the number of blinks in one cycle and refer to the chart below:
Number of LED blinks per cycle after disarming Trigger/Sensor Activated
1 blink
2 blinks
3 blinks
Vibration/impact sensor or optional sensor
Door trigger
Trunk or hood trigger
TotalRecall™
The system’s non-volatile memory records the identity of the last activated or
malfunctioning trigger or sensor, which allows your installer to instantly track down a
malfunction and save you servicing costs. To identify the trigger or sensor held in
the system’s non-volatile memory, simply perform the following procedure:
1. With the ignition OFF, flick the valet switch to one side.
2. Press button I to “arm” the system, then again to “disarm.”
3. The LED will blink several times, pause, then repeat the blink cycle 4 times.
4. Count the number of blinks in one cycle and refer to the chart that follows:
Number of LED blinks per cycle Trigger/Sensor that Last Activated or Malfunctioned
1 blink
2 blinks
3 blinks
Vibration/impact sensor or optional sensor
Door trigger
Trunk or hood trigger

AntiScan
Car thieves use electronic scanners that rapidly transmit one remote control code
after another to defeat ordinary alarms. AntiScan prevents scanners from
disarming your system.
How to Interpret the Chirps and Parking Light Flashes
When you press the remote control buttons, the system will respond with chirps (unless
you have the chirp muting feature turned on) and flashes the parking lights to indicate
the system status. The meaning of these chirp/flash acknowledgments is as follows:
Number of chirps and flashes Meaning

Multi-Level Chirp Control
Whenever you wish, you may silence the system’s arm/disarm chirps. The
short-term and one-time chirp muting capabilities are especially valuable when
parking late at night in a quiet residential area. You have several choices:
Extended Chirp Silencing:
wish to restore them. See
Short-Term Chirp Muting: Lets you silence the chirps for a single arm-and-dis-
arm cycle. To enable short-term chirp muting, simply turn the vehicle’s ignition switch rapidly ON then OFF. The next time you arm and later disarm the
system, there will be no chirps. After which, the chirps are restored.
One-Time Remote Chirp Muting: The most simple of all. To remotely arm
or disarm the alarm silently, press buttons I+II on the remote control.
Lets you completely silence the chirps until you

Your XL1000 vehicle security system allows you to set many of its features to
User-Selectable Features
your own personal preferences. We have made the programming procedures very
simple: to make a change, you just flick the valet switch a few times.
The system comes from the factory with all of its features pre-programmed as noted
in the table below and on page 7. To change any of the settings, use the procedure
noted. To restore the feature to its factory setting, just repeat the procedure:
1. Select the feature you wish to program from the table on the following
pages. Note the number of flicks and chirps associated with that feature.
2. Insert your ignition key and turn it to the “ON” position.
3. Immediately flick the valet switch back and forth, counting the number of
chirps you hear. Stop when you reach the appropriate number of chirps
4. If noted, do the “secondary action.”
5. You will hear one or more chirps (as noted in the “program completion confirmation” section) to confirm that you have changed the feature setting.
Turn the ignition off.
6. Repeat steps 1-5 for any other features you wish to program.

User-Programmable Remote Controls
Eagle will respond to as many as four remote controls regardless of each remote
control’s individual digital coding. Thus, you can buy additional remote controls,
including the super-high-security 4.3-billion-code Premier™ remote controls,
from any Authorized Clifford Dealer. To add a new remote control to the system,
use the procedures noted in the User-Selectable Features section on pages 6-7.
To Erase Unwanted Remote Control Codes
If your remote control is ever lost or stolen, you can erase its digital codes from
the system memory to make sure that the missing remote control can never be
used to disarm your system. Just use the Add a New Remote procedures noted in
the User-Selectable Features section on pages 6-7 for a total of four times (e.g., if
you have one remote control remaining, program it four times; if you have two
remote controls, program each twice).
