Welcome - Clifford AvantGuard III Owner's Manual

Welcome to the world of high-technology
vehicle security and convenience
C
ongratulations on the purchase of your AvantGuard III vehicle
security/convenience system. Clifford Electronics has long been
recognised as the world's leading manufacturer of high-technology vehicle
security systems and accessories. In fact, Clifford Electronics holds more
patents than all other vehicle security manufacturers combined. Buying
Clifford has always meant buying the best, and nowhere is our commitment
to technological innovation, reliability and quality more evident than in the
astounding top-of-the-range AvantGuard III.
Your AvantGuard III is loaded with protective features and lifestyle
conveni-ence benefits that other car alarm companies don't even have on their
wish lists, let alone their alarms. Remote engine starting is the most obvious
and most convenient feature of your AvantGuard III, especially on those
blisteringly hot summer days and frigid winter mornings. But there's also
Anti-CodeGrabbing (ACG) that fights off the latest and most onerous threat
from high-tech thieves. A thief equipped with a code-grabber can record with
total impunity the codes of any car alarm's remote control from up to several
hundred metres away. As soon as the driver arms his or her alarm and walks
away, the thief simply plays back the code, instantly disarming the alarm and
unlocking the doors. It's like giving the thief your car keys. Code-grabbing
will instantly defeat other brands of remote controlled car alarms, regardless
of whether they are equipped with "anti-scanning" or "trillions of remote
control codes" — but Clifford's ACG feature stops them dead in their tracks.
AvantGuard III's unique PlainView Coded Valet Switch ensures that no thief
or joy-rider can turn off your AvantGuard III like they can with all other car
alarm brands. For total freedom from incorrectly adjusted sensors, there's
remote controlled adjustment of the system's dual-zone radar sensor and
dual-zone vibration/impact sensor. Plus there's remote controlled valet mode,
remote controlled sensor zone override, selectable automatic engine starting
if your car battery starts to die or the engine temperature drops below
freezing, complete headlight automation with remote headlight activation,
user-programmable MultiSound Medallion Siren that will blare even if a
thief disconnects power to your AvantGuard III or even cuts all the siren
wires, smart automatic locking/unlocking if you ever "panic" the system,
full-time programming access (even while driving), and much, much more.
Yet despite all the sophistication, the AvantGuard III is amazingly easy to
use: never more difficult than a few flicks of a switch or a press of a button
on one of your miniature keychain remote controls.
