Your 4-button/12-channel remote controls The 4-button/12-channel remote controls are ultra-sophisticated miniature radio transmitters powered by a tiny 12-volt battery. Range is up to 100 feet. A weak remote control battery will reduce range. Electrical interference and even sunspots can interrupt the signal from your remote control to the system. If this happens, repeatedly press the remote control button (this works better than holding the button down). The 4-button/12-channel remote control i

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. Unlike scanners that sequentially transmit one digital code after another until they hit the correct code to disarm the alarm (a process that may take minutes to years depending on the system’s total number of codes), code-

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. If a thief tries guessing your code, after three incorrect entries, the siren will sound

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 XL Series 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 w

FACT™— False Alarm Control and Test With FACT, you’ll never experience repeated false alarms. If the Insignia 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. (To disable FACT, see User-selectable features on

Remote controlled sensor adjustments Due to ever-changing conditions, all alarms require periodic fine-tuning of their sensors. An improperly adjusted sensor is the most common cause of false alarms. With other alarms, this requires repeated trips back to the dealer. Not so with XL4000. You can adjust sensitivity electronically without tools and without even knowing where the sensor is mounted! If the setting(s) of the Piezo Sensor is either too sensitive or not sensitive enough, you may indivi
