NovaIII

Congratulations on your purchase of the Nova III. The Nova III offers a

wide array of innovative features, yet it is wonderfully user-friendly.

Commanding it is no more difficult than pressing a button on the keychain

remote control. Take a few minutes to review the Nova III’s features. You

will undoubtedly find that in addition to providing you and your vehicle

exceptional security, it will also add to your lifestyle convenience.

The Remote Control

Your dual-button/triple-channel keychain remote control is a sophisticated

radio transmitter that sends a unique digital code across a typical range of

up to 100 feet. Nova III can accept up to 4 different Clifford remote controls.

Certain factors — such as obstructions, weather conditions or a weak remote

control battery — may effect the range.

How to Disarm the System with the Remote Control

1. PressremotecontrolbuttonI.Severalactionswillconfirmremotedisarming:

•The siren will chirp once (unless the chirps are muted, see below)

•The parking lights will flash once

•The doors will unlock

•The LED indicator inside your car will turn off

2. Release the button as soon as you observe any of the above.

3. You may now enter the vehicle.

How to Arm the System with the Remote Control

1. PressremotecontrolbuttonI.Severalactionswillconfirmremotearming:

•The siren will chirp twice (unless the chirps are muted, see below)

•The parking lights will flash twice

•The doors will lock

•The LED indicator inside your car will flash continuously

•The windows and/or sunroof will close (if equipped with the optional

SmartWindows II accessory)

2. Release the button as soon as you observe any of the above.

How to Silently Arm or Disarm the System with the Remote Control

Whenever you wish, you may remotely arm or disarm your Nova III without

the normal chirp indications. This is particularly useful when parking late

atnightinaresidentialarea.Todo soissimple: Just simultaneously press

both buttons I and II ontheremote control.The parkinglights willprovide

confirmation of disarming or arming with one or two flashes, respectively.

How to Panic the System with the Remote Control

As an added safety measure, the system was designed to respond if you ever

face harassment and are within transmittal range of the vehicle. Simply

press button I continuously for 3 seconds. The parking lights will flash and

the siren will sound for your choice of 30 or 60 seconds (see How to Set

User-Selectable Features on pages 9-10), calling attention from passersby.

Remote Control Low Voltage Warning

A miniature 12-volt battery powers the remote control. As the battery

voltage decreases over time, range will decrease. If the battery voltage gets

too low, the remote control LED will flash dimly or not at all. Get a new

battery as soon as possible from your local Authorized Clifford Dealer or call

the Clifford Customer Service Department at (800) 824-3208.

Remote Control of Optional Accessories

Button II on the remote control is your lifestyle convenience button: It may

optionally command an IntelliStart remote engine starter, the remote roll-

down/venting feature of SmartWindows II, NightVision’s remote headlight acti-

vation feature, the trunk release or your home’s electric garage door.

Valet Mode

Whenever your car is to be serviced, washed or valet parked, you must use

the valet mode in order to prevent unintentional activation of the alarm.

How to Enable Valet Mode

1. Insert your key and turn the ignition to the ON position.

2. Flip the valet/program switch. The LED inside your vehicle will turn on,

confirming the system is in valet mode.

3. You may now turn the ignition off and remove your key.

NOTE: If you temporarily lose the use of your remote control, you can

disarm the system by enabling valet mode.

NOTE: Even in valet mode, you may still use the remote control to lock

or unlock the doors and/or activate a remote controlled accessory.

How to Exit Valet Mode

1. Insert your key and turn the ignition to the ON position.

2. Flip the valet/program switch. The LED inside your vehicle will turn off,

confirming the system is in normal operating mode.

Triple-Mode Chirp Muting

If and when you desire, you may silence the chirp confirmations, allowing

for only silent, parking light arm/disarm confirmation (of course, if an

intrusionattemptoccurs,thesirenwillsoundits125dBwail).Youhavethree

chirp muting choices:

•Long-Term Chirp Silencing: You may disable the chirps until you wish to

restore them. To do so,see How to Set User-Selectable Features on pages 9-10.

•One-Cycle Chirp Muting: Youmaydisablethechirpsforonlyonearm-and-

disarm cycle, after which the chirps are automatically restored. To do so,

simply turn the vehicle’s ignition switch “ON” and “OFF” rapidly. When you

next arm, and later disarm, the chirps will be silenced.

•On-the-Go Remote Chirp Muting: You may silently arm or disarm the

alarm with the remote control on-the-go and without any prior preparation

by simultaneously pressing buttons I and II of the remote control.

Enhanced AutoArming™

If you forget to remotely arm Nova III, it will arm itself automatically 30

seconds after the vehicle doors are closed. If you re-open any door(s) within the

30-second countdown, AutoArming will restart from the beginning once all

doors are closed. This ensures you’ll never accidentally leave your vehicle

unprotected. Nova III includes all these Enhanced AutoArming features:

•AutoArmingEnable/Disable:Ifyouprefer,youmay,atanytime,deactivate

or reactivate AutoArming. To do, see How to Set User-Selectable Features on

pages 9-10.

•Visual Acknowledgement: Five seconds after you exit the vehicle and close

all the doors, the parking lights will flash twice to confirm that the AutoArming

countdown is progressing. Then, 25 seconds later, the system will AutoArm.

•AutoArm & Lock: To ensure you can’t accidently lock your keys inside the

car, your Nova III is factory-set not to lock the doors upon AutoArming. To

change this setting, see How to Set User-Selectable Features on pages 9-10.

NOTE: To prevent AutoArming of the system when fueling the vehicle,

either enable valet mode or leave one of the doors open (the system

AutoArms 30 seconds after all doors are closed).

What to Do If You Inadvertently Cause the Alarm to Sound

If you unintentionally alarm the system, just press button I on your remote

control or enable valet mode to disarm the system.

Smart AutoTesting™

In the rare event of a trigger or sensor malfunction, your Nova III will alert

you of the problem and will store the identity of the specific malfunctioning

pointinitsbuilt-in,non-volatilememory.Here’showitworks:Armthealarm

with the remote control. If the system detects a malfunctioning trigger, you

willimmediatelyhearfour chirpsandseefour parkinglightflashesinstead

of the usual 2 chirps/2 flashes. If a sensor malfunction is detected, the

system will issue the usual 2 chirps and 2 flashes, then, 5 seconds later, it

will emit 4 chirps and 4 flashes.

NOTE: Since this is a warning indication, you will hear the 4-chirp signal

even if you are using the chirp muting feature.

Malfunction AutoBypass™

Once the Smart AutoTesting feature identifies a trigger or sensor malfunc-

tion and records it in its built-in, non-volatile memory, your Nova III will

instantlyoverridethedefectandarmallotherpoints.Yourvehiclewillnever

be without some measure of protection. You should, as soon as possible, take

your vehicle to your Authorized Clifford Dealer for servicing.

TotalRecall™ of Last Activated Trigger or Sensor

The Nova III’s non-volatile memory automatically stores the last trigger or

sensor activated, thereby providing an invaluable diagnostics means. To recall

theidentityofthelastactivatedtriggerorsensor,usethefollowingprocedure:

1. Disarm your Nova III with button I on the remote control.

2. With the ignition OFF, flick the valet/programming switch.

3. Press button I until you hear 2 chirps, release, then press button I

again until you hear 1 chirp. The LED status indicator will blink 1 - 3

times, pause, then repeat the blink cycle four more times. Count the

number of blinks per cycle and refer to the table below:

LED Blinks System Component that Malfunctioned

1 blink Magnetic Resonance Sensor or optional sensor(s)

2 blinks Door trigger

3 blinks Hood or trunk trigger

YourNovaIII will hold this information in its non-volatilememoryindefinitely

or until there is a subsequent activation.

Tampering Warning™

Normally, Nova III immediately sounds its siren at the first inkling of an

intrusion attempt. However, you may set the system to issue a rapid five-chirp

warningwheneverNovaIIIdetectstamperingtotheexteriorofyourvehicle.

If there is any further tampering within the next 30 seconds, or if a door, the

hood or trunk is opened at any time, your Nova III will sound a continuous

125dB siren blast. To select the mode of your choice, see How to Set User-

Selectable Features on pages 9-10.

NOTE: Turning on the Tampering Warning feature overrides the FACT

feature, and vice-versa.

FACT™— False Alarm Control and Test

With FACT, you’ll never experience repeated false alarms. If your siren goes

off,DONOTremotelydisarmthesystem;allowittorunforthefull30-second

or60-secondsirenduration, dependingon which sirenduration youhaveset

(to select siren duration, see How to Set User-Selectable Features on pages

9-10). Your Nova III automatically checks for another activated trigger

before sounding the siren a second time. Should the siren sound again, you

will know for sure that someone is tampering with your vehicle.

What Do the Chirps and Flashes Mean?

When you remotely arm or disarm the system, the siren will chirp (unless you

when you start the engine. Conversely, AutoUnLock unlocks the doors for

you and your passengers when you turn the ignition off. To deactivate (or

reactivate) this feature, see How to Set User-Selectable Features on pages 9-10.

Smart Prior Intrusion Attempt Alert

If the alarm was activated while you were away, when you disarm with the

remote control your Nova III will issue three chirps and three parking

light flashes instead of the usual one chirp/one flash.

NOTE: Since this is a warning indication, you will hear the 3-chirp signal

even if you are using the chirp muting feature.

When you enter your vehicle, the LED status indicator will be blinking 1-3

times, pause, then repeat the blink cycle four more times to indicate the

trigger/sensor that detected the intrusion attempt. Count the number of

blinks per cycle and refer to the table below:

LED Blinks Trigger/Sensor that Detected the Intrusion Attempt

1 blink Magnetic Resonance Sensor or optional sensor(s)

2 blinks Door trigger

3 blinks Hood or trunk trigger
