False Alarm Pre ven tion & FACT
With Clifford’s patented FACT (False Alarm Control and Test) feature, you’ll never
experience repeated false alarms. If the siren sounds, DO NOT remotely disarm the
system; allow it to run for the full 30-second siren duration.
Before sounding the siren a second time, your Concept 300 system will automatically
check for another activated sensor or trigger to verify that an intrusion is in progress.
Should the siren sound again, you will know for sure that someone is tampering with
your vehicle. (If you wish, you may turn off FACT, see User-selectable features on pages
18-19.)
AutoLock and Aut oUn Lock
Please note: The AutoLock and AutoUnLock features are not available on
some vehicles, such as Volkswagen and Audi.
For safety, the system will automatically lock your vehicle’s power door locks the instant
you turn on the ignition switch (e.g., when starting the engine). When you turn the
ignition switch off (e.g., when shutting down the engine), the AutoUnLock feature will
automatically unlock the doors. To suit your preferences, you may turn on or off either or
both the AutoLock and/or AutoUnLock features (see User-selectable features on pages
18-19).
AutoArming
If this AutoArming feature is enabled and you forget to arm your Concept 300 with its
remote control, the system will automatically arm itself 30 seconds after the vehicle
doors are closed and the interior light(s) have turned off.
For your convenience, if you re-open any door(s) within the 30-second countdown,
AutoArming restarts the 30-second delay from the beginning after all doors are closed.
Concept 300 has these additional AutoArming features:
n AutoArming enable/disable: If you prefer, you may deactivate or reactivate the
AutoArming feature. See User-selectable features on pages 18-19.
n Visual acknowledgment: Five seconds after you shut off the engine,exit the vehicle,
close all the doors and the interior light has turned off, the indicator lights will flash
twice to confirm the AutoArming countdown is progressing; 25 seconds later, the
system will AutoArm.
n Lock upon AutoArming: 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 18-19.
n Instant AutoArming bypass: Prevents AutoArming when fuelling the vehicle and at
other times when you wish to temporarily bypass the AutoArming feature. To activate
the Instant AutoArming Bypass, rapidly turn the ignition switch to “ON” then “OFF.
You will hear a single siren chirp to confirm that the system will not AutoArm. Your
Concept 300 system will automatically revert to its normal operating mode when you
next start the engine.
