Standard Features of the AvantGuard III

✔Lifetime Warranty — For as long as you own the vehicle, Clifford Electronics

will repair or replace the control unit and remote controls free of charge (see

warranty card for full details).

✔FACT—False Alarm Control and Test — One of many patented Clifford

innovations, FACT absolutely, positively puts an end to recurring false

alarms.

✔A Pair of 4-Button/16-Channel Remote Controls — Fingertip command

from a distance. Each remote has a unique high-gloss rosewood finish that

looks as smart as the electronics inside.

✔Anti-CodeGrabbing (ACG) with Random Code Encryption— Today’s

criminals are shifting from code scanning to a new, more efficient method of

electronic thievery: “code-grabbing.” When you use a car alarm remote, it

transmits a digital code to the alarm. A thief with a code-grabber can record that

code from hundreds of metres away, then play it back when you’re gone to

disarm the alarm and unlock the doors. Within seconds, your car is just

another theft statistic. Fortunately, Clifford’s Anti-CodeGrabbing (ACG)

randomly changes the transmitted code every time you press any of the

remote control buttons. And since these codes are selected by the system’s

microprocessor from an electronic file containing several trillion codes, the

remote control NEVER sends the same code twice, and the system control

unit NEVER accepts the same code twice. That makes code-grabbing useless

against Clifford systems.

✔Maximum Range — AvantGuard III’s ElectroLoop Antenna maximises

remote control range.

Remote Engine Starting Features

✔Remote Engine Starting— Just a press of a button safely starts and idles your

vehicle’s engine for up to 30 minutes for maximum heating/cooling of the

passenger compartment. The side lights flash and then stay on while the

engine idles for clear, on-going visual confirmation from a distance.

✔Automatic Safety Checks — Ensures that all of the following safety

conditions are met or your vehicle will not be remotely started:

•Transmission must be in park

•Engine and ignition must be off

•Engine must not be overheated

•Bonnet must be closed 4

Remote Engine Starting Features (cont.)

✔Anti-Theft Measures — If the alarm is triggered, the system immediately shuts

down the engine, and immobilises the starter motor and ignition system. Even if

the system is disarmed, the engine will be shut down if any of the following occur:

•The transmission is moved out of the “PARK” position

•The brake pedal is pressed

•Engine RPM exceeds a certain threshold

•The bonnet is opened

✔Cold Weather Cranking — Cranks the engine for up to 10 seconds or until it

starts, whichever occurs first. If the engine does not start, or starts and then

stalls, the system will try to restart the engine up to two additional times.

✔AutoShutDown— Automatically shuts down the engine after 30 minutes.

This extended runtime provides the maximum heating/cooling effect.

✔StarterGuard— Prevents accidental grinding of the starter motor if you

inadvertently turn the ignition switch to the starter position while the engine

is running under the control of the AvantGuard III.

✔ShortStop — Now you won’t need to shut off the engine when stopping at a

convenience store or making a delivery. Just a press on the remote control

while the engine is still running and you can remove the keys, exit, remotely

lock the doors and arm the alarm without shutting down the engine.

✔Petrol & Diesel Compatibility— The AvantGuard III works with any

automatic transmission vehicle that has either a petrol or diesel engine (diesel

engine vehicles require an optional adapter).

✔AutoStart Features— AvantGuard III provides these AutoStart features:

nBattery Mode — You may command the system to continually monitor the vehicle

battery when you are going to be away for an extended period of time. If the voltage

drops below a preset level, the system will automatically start the engine and

recharge the battery. It shuts down the engine once the battery is properly charged

or after 30 minutes, whichever occurs first. If needed, the process will repeat every

eight hours. AutoStart is automatically canceled as soon as the vehicle is driven.

nTemperature Mode — You may set the AvantGuard III to AutoStart your vehicle

if the engine temperature drops below 15°F (-9°C).

nDual-Mode — You may set the system to monitor both the temperature and the

voltage and, if either one is needed, the system will AutoStart the engine.

✔Automatic Transmission Required— The AvantGuard III is intended

exclusively for automatic transmission vehicles.

Security and Additional Convenience Features

✔Built-In Two-Point AutoImmobiliser — For the utmost in theft prevention, two

AutoImmobilisation relays interrupt both the starter and ignition while the

system is armed. Even if a thief were to pull all the fuses or cut all the wires,

both the starter and ignition remain immobilised.

✔Remote Controlled Seat Positioning — When you remotely disarm, your

AvantGuard III will automatically activate your vehicle’s memory seat

setting. You can assign any one of up to four memory seat settings to each of

up to four different remote controls. For instance, when disarmed with your

remote control, AvantGuard III automatically activates the vehicle’s memory

seat position #1; when disarmed with your spouse’s remote control, memory

position #2 is automatically activated, and so on in any combination you wish

using up to four different remotes and four different memory positions.

✔UltraSecure Coded Valet Mode — Other alarms use a “hidden” valet switch

any thief can find within seconds to turn off the alarm. In contrast, Clifford’s

UltraSecure Coded Valet Mode provides remarkable security utilising an

attractive console-mounted switch. This switch is easy to use and allows you

to set your own personal code with up to 1,000 different possibilities. And,

any time you wish, you can change your code. No thief can breach the

security of Clifford’s coded valet switch even if he tries entering codes at

random. Why? Because after three incorrect codes are entered, the system

immediately sounds its siren, flashes the indicator lights, shuts down the

engine (if it was remotely started), immobilises the vehicle’s starter and

ignition systems and ignores for a certain time any more code entry attempts .

. . even if the thief were to actually stumble onto your secret code!

nRemote Controlled Valet Mode — With just a press of a button on your remote

control, you can enter or exit valet mode. Side light flashes visually confirm valet

mode entry and exit.

✔Extended Accessory Power — After you park and turn off the ignition, the

AvantGuard III will continue to provide power to your vehicle’s power

windows, car stereo and any other components on the vehicle’s accessory line

until one of the doors is opened or for five minutes, whichever occurs first.

✔Full-Time Remote Panic with Automatic Door Locking and Unlocking — If you

ever feel threatened, a press on the remote will sound the siren, flash the parking

lights and unlock the doors of your parked car for quick entry without fumbling

with the keys. If you ever need to panic the system while driving, the siren will

sound, the lights will flash and the doors will lock to shield you from the assailant.

Security and Additional Convenience Features(cont.)

✔Smart Self-Powered Siren with Unbreachable Digital ComLink —

Continuous two-way digital communication between the system’s control

unit and the siren assures that if, at any time, the system fuse is pulled or any

siren wire is cut while the system is armed, the siren will instantly activate

for five minutes. Yet when the system is disarmed and power is interrupted,

the siren will remain silent.

nSmart Self-Powered Circuitry — Unlike other battery-backed sirens, the

AvantGuard III siren only draws power for its internal battery while you’re driving,

so it can’t drain the battery of your parked car like all other battery backup sirens.

nAutomatic Low Battery Warning — The siren will audibly warn you if its back-up

battery voltage is low or if its internal battery fails to hold a charge.

nPersonalised Siren Sounds — You may select any combination of 6 different

sound patterns for unmistakable recognition from a distance. So if you hear a siren

at a distance, you will know for sure whether or not it is your car.

nUltra-Reliability — Clifford Electronics’ unique design and rugged construction

ensure that the Smart Self-Powered MultiSound Medallion Siren delivers 10 times

the reliability of conventional sirens.

nUser-Selectable Siren Duration — Your choice of a 30- or 60-second siren blast

when the alarm is triggered.

nPatented Automatic Noise Abatement — Automatically limits alarm sounding

to no more than five minutes even if a door is left open in the wake of an intrusion

attempt, then automatically resets and re-arms.

✔Remote Door Locking/Unlocking — No more fumbling with the keys in the

dark or bad weather! One press of a button on the remote simultaneously arms

the system and locks the doors. Another press disarms and unlocks.

nUser-Selectable AutoLock with Smart ReLocking and User-Selectable RPM

Dependence — Automatically locks the doors after you start driving (at about

15-20 mph). If a passenger enters or exits your car while the engine is running,

AvantGuard III automatically relocks the doors after you accelerate. If you prefer,

you can set the system to automatically lock the doors the instant the ignition is

turned on, or you can turn off the AutoLock feature entirely.

nUser-Selectable AutoUnLock — Automatically unlocks the doors when the

ignition is turned off (this feature is user-selectable regardless of the AutoLock

setting).

nDeluxe Remote Keyless Entry in Valet Mode — You may use the remote control

to lock and unlock the car doors, start the engine and activate accessories even

while the system is in valet mode.

Security and Additional Convenience Features(cont.)

✔A Pair of Remotely Adjustable Dual-Zone Sensors — Both a Digital

Dual-Zone Proximity Sensor IV and a Dual-Zone Piezo Sensor giving four

times the protection.

nDigital Dual-Zone Proximity Sensor IV — The two sensor zones provide full

perimeter protection: If someone is lurking near your car, the system sounds a

one-second warning tone, but if a thief leans into the passenger compartment

through an open window, the system instantly blasts the siren, flashes the side

lights and immobilises the starter and ignition system. You can adjust, test and set

sensitivity of each zone of this efficient microprocessor-controlled passenger

compartment sensor via a few presses on the remote control. To minimise current

draw, this new-generation radar sensor uses only 30% of the power required by

other radar sensors, yet provides better sensitivity and far more precise

discrimination between genuine threats to your vehicle and everyday

environmental conditions that cause other radar sensors to false alarm.

nDual-Zone Piezo Sensor — Just like the Digital Dual-Zone Proximity Sensor IV,

you can adjust and test sensitivity of each zone of this all-electronic

vibration/impact sensor via the remote. Unlike other vibration/impact sensors, the

sensitivity of the Dual-Zone Piezo Sensor stays where you set it regardless of time

or temperature. The warning zone of the Dual-Zone Piezo Sensor has a different

sound than that of the Dual-Zone Proximity Sensor for distinct identification.

nTonal Confirmation of Remote Sensor Adjustments — For the utmost in sensitivity

adjustment ease and instant feedback, just press a few buttons on the remote to

adjust the sensitivity of each zone of each of the two system sensors. That’s all

there is to it! Higher and higher pitched tones confirm each sensitivity increase,

lower and lower tones confirm each decrease.

n32/16-Step Incremental Sensitivity — For fine-tuning accuracy, each of the two

zones of the Digital Dual-Zone Proximity Sensor IV has a 32-step adjustment

range, as does the alarm zone of the Dual-Zone Piezo Sensor. The Piezo Sensor’s

less critical warning zone utilises 16 steps for adjustment speed and accuracy.

nAdjust and Test Unobtrusively — No repeated arming and disarming, and no siren

wailing. You set, adjust and test sensitivity of each sensor and each sensor zone

without activating the alarm!

nRemote Override of Each Proximity Sensor Zone — One press of a button on the

remote control overrides the Proximity Sensor IV’s perimeter warning zone when

you need to park in an area with heavy pedestrian traffic. A second press turns off

both zones for those times when you must leave a passenger or pet in the vehicle.

✔SilentNight — This user-selectable feature automatically silences the normal

arm and disarm chirps at night, restores them in daylight.

✔QuietChirp— User-selectable soft or full-volume arm/disarm chirps.
