PLEASE NOTE: This section is only for vehicles with a manual transmission. If your vehicle has an automatic

transmission, skip this section.

For safety reasons, the transmission must be left in neutral if the engine will be remotely started. To assure safe remote starting, you must perform these

steps before exiting:

1. Park and, while the engine is running, place the trans mis sion in neu tral and set the hand brake.

2. Without touch ing the brake, trans mit chan nel 11 (Lev elShift but ton twice, then but ton 3) on the master remote or press button

companion remote. Two parking light flashes will con firm this ac tion.

3. Turn the ig ni tion off and re move your keys. The en gine will con tinue to idle.

4. Exit and arm. The en gine will shut down. This prepares the system to later accept your remote starting command.

NOTE: For safety reasons, the system ignores the remote start command if the alarm sounded while you were away.

The system will continue to power your car stereo, power windows and other accessories even after you shut off the engine (may require optional

parts/wiring). So if you turn off the key and realize you forgot to roll up a window, you don't need to turn the ignition back on. Extended Accessory Power

lasts 5 minutes or until a door is opened.

On a limited number of vehicles, this feature can cause operational problem. If this is the case, this feature can be programmed off by your Clifford dealer.

You may set many of the features to your own preferences. Once you've changed a few settings, you'll find that programming the system is so easy that

you can even do it while driving. The system comes with all of its features preprogrammed as noted by the bold type in the Table of user-selectable features. 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 greater programming ease and even more system control, consider the CliffNet Wizard Windows PC

software interface: www.clifford.com/wizard.
