Standard Features of the IntelliGuard 8OO-IQ ✔ Lifetime Warranty —For as long as you own the vehicle, Clifford will repair or replace the control unit and remote controls free of charge (see card for 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/12-Channel Remote Controls —Fingertip command from a typical range of 100 feet.
Standard Features of the IntelliGuard 8OO-IQ (cont.) Tonal Confirmation of Sensor Adjustments As you remotely increase sensitivity, the confirming chirps rise in pitch. Conversely, as you lower each zone’s sensitivity, the confirmation chirps become lower and lower in pitch. Unprecedented Reliability — There are no moving mechanical parts to wear out and the entire electronic circuitry resides in the passenger compartment.
Standard Features of the IntelliGuard 8OO-IQ (cont.) ✔ Built-In Parking Light Flasher —Visually confirms door lock and system status. ✔ Remote Controlled Courtesy Lighting —For your personal safety and convenience, when you remotely disarm, the interior lights turn on and stay on until you start the engine or 30 seconds, whichever occurs first.
Standard Features of the IntelliGuard 8OO-IQ (cont.) ✔ User-Programmable MultiSound Medallion™ Siren — The IntelliGuard 800-IQ’s innovative MultiSound Medallion siren integrates creative form and engineering triumphs. Designed entirely by Clifford engineers, there’s no other siren like it. The remarkable Clifford MultiSound Medallion Siren is far superior in its performance, features, reliability and even aesthetics to all other manufacturer’s look-alike, sound-alike generic sirens.
Standard Features of the IntelliGuard 8OO-IQ (cont.) ✔ Smart Remote Trunk Release Capability — An electronic interlock assures the optional remote trunk release can be activated only when disarmed. To further prevent any possibility of unintentional opening of the trunk, the interlock also makes sure the trunk release cannot be remotely activated while driving.
Welcome to the world of high-technology vehicle security and convenience C ongratulations on the purchase of your IntelliGuard 800-IQ vehicle security/convenience system. Clifford Electronics has long been recognized 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.
Your 4-button/12-channel remote controls The 4-button/12-channel remote controls (one with a gun-metal gray case, the other with a burlwood finish) are ultra-sophisticated miniature radio transmitters powered by a tiny 12-volt battery. Range is up to 100 feet (up to 300 feet with the optional ElectroLoop Antenna). A weak remote control battery will reduce range. Electrical interference and even sunspots can interrupt the signal from your remote to the system.
What each button/channel does Your IntelliGuard 800-IQ remote controls come pre-programmed so that certain channels command certain functions. If you wish, you can actually assign any channel except 9 through 12 to any function (see pages 20-24). The following chart indicates what each remote control channel number does, and how to transmit each channel number.
TO ACTIVATE THE PANIC FEATURE . . . . . . . . . . Press button 1 for 3 seconds. The lights will flash repeatedly and the siren will blare for 30 or 60 seconds (user-selectable), or until you press button 1 again to turn it off. If the ignition is on (indicating you are in the car), the doors will automatically lock to prevent an assailant from entering. If the ignition is off, the doors will unlock, allowing you to enter without fumbling with your keys.
AntiScan™ Thieves can disarm some other brands of car alarms with a “scanner” that rapidly transmits one remote control code after another. Clifford’s AntiScan will detect any scanner and block the codes it generates. Anti-CodeGrabbing™ (ACG) with Random Code Encryption A Clifford exclusive that protects you and your automobile from the most effective and onerous car stealing device ever used by car thieves — a code-grabber. Code-grabbers are far more effective and efficient than scanning.
UltraSecure™ Coded Valet Mode Your secret valet code In seconds, thieves can disable all other alarm brands by hotwiring the ignition and flicking an easy to find “hidden” valet switch. Your system has safeguards that absolutely ensure a thief cannot enable the valet mode as a way of “turning off” your system. How? To enable valet mode, the driver must first enter a secret valet code on the PlainView switch. Your code will be a 1-to-3-digit number of your choosing.
To exit valet mode 1. Turn the ignition switch to its “ON” position or start the engine. 2. Flick the switch back to its center position. The LED will turn off to confirm that the system is now in its normal operating mode. Setting your own secret valet code Since all IntelliGuard IQ systems have the same factory-set code, it is highly advisable that you set your own valet code. You may choose any 1-, 2-, or 3-digit code that does not have any zeros. You can also change your valet code whenever you want.
Remote controlled sensor adjustments Due to ever-changing conditions, all alarms require periodic fine-tuning of their sensors. With other alarms, this requires repeated trips back to the dealer. Not so with IntelliGuard 800-IQ. You can adjust sensitivity electronically without tools and without even knowing where the sensor is mounted! If the setting(s) of the Proximity Sensor are either too sensitive or not sensitive enough, you may individually test and adjust the settings of each zone.
FACT™— False Alarm Control and Test With FACT, you’ll never experience repeated false alarms. If the MultiSound Medallion Siren goes off, DO NOT remotely disarm the system; allow it to run for the full siren duration. Before sounding the siren a second time, the system automatically checks for another activated 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.
Multiple-event TotalRecall™ The system’s memory records the identity of the last eight activated or malfunctioning triggers and sensors, which allows your installer to instantly track down malfunctions. To identify the triggers and sensors held in the system’s memory, use the following procedure: 1. With the ignition OFF, flick the PlainView valet switch to its latched side. 2. Press button 1 to “arm” the system, then again to “disarm.” 3.
Tamper-proof ignition immobilization output If your IntelliGuard 800-IQ is equipped with the ignition immobilization option, while armed, the system assures that your vehicle is completely immobilized by automatically locking out the ignition system. That means that a thief won’t be able to start the engine even if he had a duplicate of your car key.
Smart trunk release option If the remote trunk release feature was installed, you may use the remote control’s button 2 to remotely pop the trunk. Your IntelliGuard 800-IQ has a built-in electronic interlock to prevent unintentional activation of the remote trunk release when you drive, or when the system is armed. SmartPowerUp™ II If power to the system is ever removed, SmartPowerUp II ensures the system will automatically restore itself to its previous state when power is restored.
User-selectable features Your IntelliGuard 800-IQ allows you to set many of its features to your own personal preferences. Although the system’s programming capabilities are very extensive, we have made the programming procedures very simple: to make a change, you just flick the PlainView switch a few times.
EXAMPLE 1: Turn off siren sound number 2: You can turn each of the siren’s six different sound patterns on and off as you wish to create you own custom sound (see the Personalized Siren Sounds section on page 18 for more information) To turn off “Sound 2” you’ll note that “Sound 2” is in column 1, row 2 of the Table (on pages 23-24). The “on” in bold type indicates the factory setting. The following example will turn that one sound off: 1.
5. To exit the program mode, turn the ignition off. You’ll hear 3 chirps to confirm program mode exit. You just made three programming changes in only five steps. Easy, isn’t it? Notice again that in step 3 on the previous page you did not have to re-select column 1. If you don’t touch the switch, the system stays in the column for 10 seconds to allow you to select any other feature(s) in the same column without having to re-enter the column number. Of course, you can select a new column at any time.
Table of user-selectable features: 1 chirp = OFF, two chirps = ON.
