Maintenance; Very Important - Clifford IntelliGuard Millennia Owner's Manual

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.

C
ongratulations on the purchase of your Clifford Electronics mobile security/convenience system. Clifford Electronics has long been recognized as the
leading manufacturer of high-technology vehicle security systems. Our commitment to technological innovation, quality and reliability is clearly evident
in your Clifford system. Yet despite all its sophistication, your system is amazingly easy to use, never more difficult than a few presses of a button.
IntelliGuard Millennia's 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
IntelliGuard Millennia 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. The system ignores the remote control at this point
(since the carjacker most likely has it). Then when the carjacker slows for a turn or traffic, BlackJax safely shuts down the engine and prevents it from
being restarted.
IntelliGuard Millennia assures the thief cannot restart the engine even if he were to find and remove the system control unit. Unable to restart the
engine, and with your vehicle stalled in the middle of traffic — siren wailing and 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 gas station or in a parking lot, which are the most common carjacking sites). To recover
your vehicle, you simply walk a block or two to your car, enter your PIN (personal identification number) code, and the system releases control of the
vehicle to you.
Your secret PIN code tells the system that the car is being driven by an authorized person. If you or a passenger opens and closes a car door at any point
while the engine is running (as would occur in a carjacking attempt), you must again enter your secret code.

VERY IMPORTANT:

following, we suggest you turn this feature ON (see the User-selectable features section). When anti-carjacking is
on, each time you begin driving you MUST enter your PIN 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 any time.
You may enable or disable the BlackJax anti-carjacking feature (see User-selectable features) or temporarily override it via the PlainView 2 Coded Valet
Mode.
Unless the BlackJax anti-carjacking feature is turned off or the system is in valet mode, 20 seconds after you switch on the ignition and press the brake (or
open and close a door while the engine is running), you must enter your secret disarming PIN code on the PlainView 2 switch (mounted on the
dashboard or console) to let the system know it is you who is driving.
Your system's factory-set PIN code is the single digit 2.
Entering a code
To enter your code, press the ✱ button the appropriate number of times on the PlainView 2 switch on the dashboard or console followed by the blank
button. To enter a zero, you simply press the blank button.
EXAMPLE: To enter the factory-set code of 2, you would press and release the switch in this manner: ✱✱ blank.
EXAMPLE: To enter a code of 1203, you would press: ✱ blank, ✱✱ blank, blank, ✱✱✱ blank.
If you have the BlackJax feature turned on, until you set your own PIN code, you will use the factory-set default code of "2." To drive your car, you must
do the following:
1. Shut all doors, then start the engine.
2. Enter the factory-set disarming code of 2: ✱✱ blank (you may do this while driving, if you wish).
3. The dashboard LED will flash on for an instant to confirm proper code entry. You may now drive or continue driving the vehicle.
If you forget to enter your PIN code, the system will remind you 20 seconds after you begin driving by "chirping" the siren 5 times and flashing the LED.
At this point, you have another 20 seconds to enter your PIN code. When entered, the LED will stop flashing and the siren will chirp once to audibly
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.
