Passenger Compartment Connections
Control Unit and Extended Range Receiver
The AvantGuard 4 control unit must be installed inside the vehicle. Under no circumstances should the unit be
installed under the hood or other similarly hostile environment.
1.Select an area behind the dash to mount the control unit using wire ties, but do not permanently affix it until all wiring and testing
is complete.
2.Plug the extended range receiver in to the control unit. Mount the extended range receiver away fr om the control unit and run
the antenna either up the window pillar and affix it to the windshield, or under the dash, away from metal. The position and
location of the receiver will effect remote control range. Do not fold the excess cable or antennawire. Donot makehard, sharpbends.
Door Trigger/Interior Light Supply
Please refer to the Door Trigger/Interior Light Supply section in this binder for information on polarity testing and connections.
Central Door Locking System
Please refer to the Door Locks section in this binder for information on circuit types and connections.
LED Status Indicator
Select a prominent location on the dash or console visible through all windows. Discuss placement with the owner.
1. Verify there is adequate space to accommodate the LED, then drill a 5/16” (8mm) hole and route the wires through it.
2. Mate the LED connectors to the VIOLET and BLACK wire connectors as shown in the diagram on page 5.
3.Press the LED into place.
PlainView 2 Coded Valet Switch
1. Discuss placement of the switch with the vehicle owner. It should be mounted in a location that iseasily accessible to the driver of
the vehicle.
2.Verify there is adequate space behind the selected location to accommodate the switch.
3.Drill a 5/16” (8mm) mounting hole, then insert the wires through the hole and mount the switch.
4. Mate the switch’s locking connectors to the WHITE and BLACK locking connector as shown on page 5.
Remotely Adjustable Dual-Zone Proximity Sensor 4
This efficient new-generation proprietary radar sensor is immune to the wind and temperature variations that cause ultrasonic
sensors to false alarm. The sensor must be mounted onto a metal surface and face outward into the p assenger compartment and
should be positioned as close as possible to the center of the passenger compartment. Suggested mou nting locations include within
the center console, behind the dash, under the carpeting of the central hump or even in the headlining. When selecting a location,
keep in mind that metal as well as metallic paint, metallic-colored plastic and metal-laced window tint material will interfere with the
radar field. Be certain not to mount it in a location under the console over which the vehicle owne r may store coins, CDs or cassettes
(iron-oxide tape). The radar waves of the sensor willpass through nonmetallic materials such as plastic, fabric and carpet.
1.Temporarily affix the sensor where it will be mounted, but do not yet permanently mount it until after adjusting and testing
sensitivity (the sensor may need to be relocated, so do not permanently secure it until it has beenthoroughly tested).
2. Plug the connector with the BLACK, WHITE/BLUE and RED/BLACK wires into the sensor, then secure the wires with a cable tie.
Digital Tilt/Motion Sensor
Find a solid, firm horizontal surface within the passenger compartment (such as under the seat) andthoroughly prep the area for
mounting. Do not mount the sensor on the transmission hump, rapid heat buildup can affect sensitivi ty. The unit is mounted with
the supplied double-sided adhesive material, so the mounting area must be very clean.
1.Mount the unit onto a clean, horizontal surface using the supplied double-sided adhesive material.
2.Join the connector from the Digital Tilt/Motion Sensor with the connector with the GREEN, ORANGE, R ED and BLACK wires
as shown on page 5, then secure the wires with a cable tie.
NOTE: The Digital Tilt/Motion Sensor will become active 10 seconds after arming the system. Some vehicles,
such as Range Rovers, lower after the ignition is turned OFF and require more time before the sensor
activates. To extend this time delay, cut the sensor wireloop — this will provide a two-minute delay.
8AvantGuard 4/699

Parking Lights
See theDoor Trigger & Parking Lightssections in this binder.
NightVision Light Sensor
1.Mount the Light Sensor in a discreet location on the dashboard. The light sensor must be positione d in such a way that the light
“eye” can detect light coming through the windshield.
2.Connect the BLACK twinlead connector from the light sensor to the GRAY twinlead from the 24-p in connector.
Windshield Wipers
1.Using a DVM, test the wiper switch output line going to the motor. If the polarity is positive when you turn the windshield wipers
on, connect the BLUE wire to the line between the wiper motor and the wiper switch. If the polarit y is negative, connect the
BLUE/YELLOW wire to the line between the wiper motor and the wiper switch as shown on page 5.
2.Insulate or tape the unused wire.
Headlights
1.Locate the wire at the headlight switch that changes voltage when the headlights are turned on.
2.Connect the RED/BLACK wire to this line.
3.If the line indicates positive while the headlights are on, connect the RED/WHITE wire to the batte ry positive post via a 30-amp
fuse. If the line indicates negative while the headlights are on, connect the RED/WHITE wire to gr ound.
Starter and Ignition Connections
Immobilization Circuits
1.Locate the ignition switch wireloom under the dash and use a voltmeter to locate the one wire that carries +12V throughout
BOTH the cranking AND engine running cycles, and 0 volts when the ignition is off.
You may find two wires in the steering column wireloom that test this way. If so, see the Secondary Ignition or
Heater/AC wire section below.
2.Start the engine, then cut the ignition wire. The engine should stop running.
3. As shown on page 3, connect the WHITE/BROWN wire of the AvantGuard 4 to the key sideof the cut ignition line.
4.Connect the GREEN/BLUE wire of the AvantGuard 4 andthe GREEN/BLUE wire of the IntelliStart 4 to the engine sideof the
cut ignition line.
StarterConnection
You MUST connect the starter wires before the neutral safety switch, otherwise the engine could be started
while in gear. Also note that the starter circuit may have very high current. Be certain that both the
WHITE/GREEN and WHITE/BLUE wires are solidly connected. For maximum dependability, solder a nd shrink
tube these connections.
1.Use a voltmeter to locate the one wire that carries +12V during the cranking cycle ONLY. Cut this wire, then try to start the
engine. It should not crank.
2.Connect the WHITE/GREEN of the AvantGuard 4 wire to thekey sideof the cut starter line.
3.Connect the WHITE/BLUE wire of the AvantGuard 4 andthe WHITE/BLUE wire of the IntelliStart 4 to the starter side of the
cut starter line.

1.Turn the vehicle’s heater/AC switch on and rotate the ignition key toward START one increment at a time. Observe at which
position the blower turns on.
2.Turn the engine OFF.
3.Connect the voltmeter black lead to ground and set the dial to DC volt.
4.Locate the one wire that carries +12V only when the ignition key is at the position where the blower activates.
5.Cut the wire.
6.Start the engine. The blower should not operate.
7. Connect the GRAY wire to the heater/AC wire as shown on page 3.
AvantGuard 4/6999

Secondary Ignition or Heater/AC Wire
More and more vehicles are being manufactured with two ignition or two heater/AC wires in order to split up the power
requirements of the temperature control system, on-board computers, fuel delivery system, electroni c transmisssion control, etc. If
you are working on such a vehicle, you will find two wires that both test as ignition lines or two wires that supply the heater/AC.
Connect the ORANGE/GRAY wire to the 2nd ignition line and the GRAY/ORANGE to the second heater/AC l ine.
Accessory Line Connection
Most vehicles have a separate accessory line to power the radio, electric windows, demister, etc.
1.Turn the vehicle’s radio ON and rotate the ignition key to ACC. The radio should turn on.
2.Locate the one wire that carries +12V onlywhen the ignition key is in the ACC and ON positions, but 0V while the key is in the
START position.
3.Cut this wire.
4.Start the engine. The radio should not operate.
5. Connect the ORANGE wire to the accessory wire as shown on page 3.
Automatic Transmission
1. If the vehicle has an automatic transmission, connect the IntelliStart 4 BLACK/GREEN wire to ground .
CONNECT THE INTELLISTART 4 BLACK/GREEN WIRE TO GROUND ONLY IF THE VEHICLE HAS AN AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION! AN INCORRECT CONNECTION CAN CAUSE SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH.
2. Verify that the reverse lights illuminate when the transmission is put in reverse.
3.Find the one wire in the kick panel that reads +12V only when the transmission is in reverse.
4. Connect the IntelliStart 4 BLUE/GREEN wire to this wire as shown on page 7.
Manual Transmission
1.Find two wires going in to a connector on the clutch pedal.
2. Unplug the clutch pedal connector, then try to start the vehicle while
pressing the clutch pedal. The engine should neither start nor crank.
3. Connect the BLUE/ORANGE wire to an optional relay.
4. Turn on the ignition.
5.Find the one wire near the emergency brake that carries +12V when
the emergency brake is engaged and 0V when it is disengaged.
6.Connect the BLUE/GREEN wire to this wire as shown on page 7.
Diesel Engines
There are two methods for interfacing with diesel engines: use the “Wait-to-Start” light which w ill trigger the starter when the light
turns off, or use the built-in 20 second timer which cranks the engine 20 seconds after the rem ote start command is received.
Using the 20 second delay:
Using the Installer-Programming, change the engine setting to “Diesel Engine,” or use the CliffordWizard Pro installation softwareto
program the system. The CliffordWizard Pro will also allow you to customize the delay to an interval other than 20 seconds.
Using the Wait-to-Start light:
Note: Skip this section if using the 20 second delay method.
Check the polarity of the two wires at the bulb of the Wait-to-Start light.
oIf the polarity is positive when the light turns off, connect the BLUE/YELLOW wire to this wire.
oIf the polarity is negative when the light turns off, connect the BLUE/BLACK wire to this wire.
Brake Lights
The AvantGuard 4 monitors the brake light to prevent an unauthorized driver from driving the car. The brake
light input wire MUST be connected and brake light must be in working condition.
1. Turn the ignition ON and press the brake pedal to make sure the brake light turns on.
2.Connect the black lead of the voltmeter to ground and set the dial to DC volt.
3.Probe one of the two wires at the brake pedal switch with the voltmeter red lead. The voltmeter sh ould read +12V when you press
the brake pedal; 0 volts when released. If no signal is detected, try the other wire.
4.Connect the BLUE/WHITE wire to the brake light wire as shown on page 7.

Factory Theft Deterrent Bypass
The wires noted below are to disarm a vehicle’s factory alarm system to permit remote starting.
For more information on the vehicle on which you are installing the AvantGuard 4, download this information
from our www.clifforddealer.com website, our AutoFax service or ring our Dealer
Technical Support Helpline.
1.The BLUE/ORANGE wire is a negative out whenever the vehicle is remotely started. It can be used for extra ignition relays or for
factory alarm bypass. This wire comes from the factory pre-wired to the parking/sidelight relays.
2.The WHITE/VIOLET wire is a negative pulse out just prior to remote engine starting. It can be used
to pulse a factory disarm wire
or unlock the doors.
3. The VIOLET/WHITE wire is a negative pulse out after remote engine starting. This can be usedto lock the doors after remote
starting if the doors had been unlocked prior to starting.
Using the Wait-to-Start light:
Note: Skip this section if using the 20 second delay method.
Check the polarity of the two wires at the bulb of the Wait-to-Start light.
oIf the polarity is positive when the light turns off, connect the BLUE/YELLOW wire to this wire.
oIf the polarity is negative when the light turns off, connect the BLUE/BLACK wire to this wire.
Trunk Trigger
Vehicles with an ground-switching trunk light will interface directly with the AvantGuard 4 (on pos itive switching Rolls-Royce vehicles,
use a relay to invert polarity). The switch may be located in or near the trunk latch or at the tru nk light. If a switch cannot be
located, you must add a pin switch in a location away from water channels.
NOTE: If the vehicle has a dashboard trunk ajar indicator, install a 1-amp diode between t he light and switch
with the diode band pointing toward the switch.
1. Connect the GRAY/YELLOW wire to the trunk switch (between the diode and switch if you added a diode) as shown on page 5.
Auxiliary A with Selectable Output Type
You can program the GRAY/VIOLET Auxiliary A output wire to operate as a pulsed output (0.5 second g round), as a latched output
(the output stays at ground until Auxiliary A is activated a second time), or as a timed output (st ays at ground for any duration of
your choice between one second and four minutes). The output is activated by transmitting channel 2on the master remote or by
pressing the button on the companion remote control. You can also set this output to only operate while the system is disarmed
and the ignition is off for use as a remote trunk release. Current is limited to 0.15 amp. See Installer-Programmable Featureson page
20 to change the type of output.
Auxiliary B with Selectable Output Type
You can program the GRAY/BLUE Auxiliary B output wire to operate as a pulsed output (0.5 second gro und or for as long as the button is
held); as a latched output (i.e., the output stays at ground until Auxiliary B is activated a secon d time); or as a timed output (stays at ground
for any duration of your choice between 1 and 255 seconds). You can also set this output to only op erate while the system is disarmed and
the ignition is off. The output is activated transmitting channel 7 on the remote or by simultaneo usly pressing the and ✱ buttons on
the companion remote. Current is limited to 0.15 Amp. See Installer-Programmable Featuresto change the type of output.
Auxiliary C with Selectable Output Type and AutoActivation
You can program the GRAY/RED Auxiliary C output wire to operate as a pulsed output (0.5 second grou nd), as a latched output (the
output stays at ground until Auxiliary C is activated a second time) or as a timed output (stays atground for any duration of your choice
between one second and four minutes). You can also set this output to only operate while the systemis disarmed and the ignition is off. The
output is activated by transmitting channel 8 on the master remote or by simultaneously pressing th e and buttons on the
companion remote. Current is limited to 0.15 Amp. You can also set this output to automatically act ivate every time the system is
remotely-armed (perfect if wiring as a timed output to close the electric windows and sunroof on Eu ropean vehicles that have an all-close
feature). See Installer-Programmable Features on page 20 to change the type of output and/or set AutoActivation.
Window RollUp
Please refer to theWindow RollUp section in this binder for information on the various circuit types and connections.
AvantGuard 4/69911

Engine Bay Connections
RPM Monitoring
This is required for both RPM-activated automatic door locking, remote engine starting and BlackJaxAnti-Carjacking features. See
the RPM Monitoringsection in this binder for information.
Self-Powered SmartSiren 4
The siren transmits a two-way digital signal between itself and the control unit. If a thief discon nects
power and/or cuts or tampers with any or all of the siren wires while the system is armed, the sire n
will sound for five minutes and then reset. Since this will only occur while the system is armed, there
is no need for a siren override key. Unlike other back-up battery sirens that constantly drain the car
battery, Clifford’s design draws charging current only when the ignition is on (i.e., engine runnin g).
If the internal battery is discharged, the arm/disarm chirps are muted.
1. You must firmly secure the siren to the engine bay firewall or an fender well using all three sheet
metal screws supplied. Mount the siren away from areas of water ingress or excessive heat. Point
the siren down to avoid moisture.
2.Run the cable from the Smart Self-Powered Siren through the firewall in to the passenger compartment using caution as not to tear
the pins from the end of the cable.
3.Join the connector from the siren to the connector with the GREEN, YELLOW, BLACK and RED wires fromthe wireloom and
secure the connectors with a cable tie.
4.Insert the DataPort connector with the YELLOW and GREEN wires into the DataPort on the control unit .
NOTE: The vehicle must be driven for a total of eight hours after the siren has been installedin order to
sufficiently charge the siren’s back-up battery.
Hood Trigger
Vehicles with a ground-switching hood pin switch interface directly with AvantGuard 4 (on positive switching Rolls-Royce vehicles, use a
relay to invert polarity). If a switch cannot be located, you must add the supplied pin switch in a location away from water c hannels.
1.Connect the WHITE/BLACK wire to the hood pin wire (between the diode and pin switch if a diode was added) as shown on page 5.
NOTE: If the vehicle has a dashboard hood ajar indicator, install a 1-amp diode between the light and switch
with the diode band pointing toward the switch.
Final Wiring Connections
1.Connect the two 14AWG RED wires from the IntelliStart 4 9-pin pigtail connector to the 30-amp fuseh oldersas shownon page3.
2. Connect the 18AWG RED wire from the IntelliStart 4 12-pin connector to the 5-amp fuseholder as shown on page 7.
3. Connectthe 14AWG RED wirefromthe AvantGuard412-pin pigtail connectortothe 30-ampfuseholderasshownon page3.
4. Connect the 18AWG RED wire from the AvantGuard 4 24-pin connector to the 5-amp fuseholder as shown on page 5.
5.Connect the 18AWG RED/WHITE wire from the AvantGuard 14-pin connector to the 20-amp fuseholder as s hown on page 7.
6.Attach the six fuseholders to the positive battery terminal cable clamp using the supplied ring con nectors.
7.Use ring connectors to attach the two BLACK wires from the AvantGuard 4 and the IntelliStart 4 to the negative battery terminal
cable clamp.
NOTE:Powerandtestaccessories after the basic system hasbeentested.Individuallyfuseall accessory power
connections. Individually fuse all +12V fuse panel connections.
SmartPowerUp™ 2
SmartPowerUp 2 ensures that the system powers up in the same state (disarmed, armed or valet mode) it was in when power was removed.
When you first power up the system, it will silently enter the disarmed state.
Delayed Courtesy Lights
Some vehicles have a courtesy light delay or dimming circuit that interferes the alarm’s doortrigger detection upon remote arming. If the
delay or dimming lasts more than 5 seconds, no special connections or testing are needed, just turn on the Delayed Courtesy Lights feature
as noted in the Installer-Programmable Featuressection. Sincethis feature sets the system to arm the instant the courtesy lights turn off,
the Door Ajar Warning feature will not be available.
12 AvantGuard 4/699

MANDATORY RPM PROGRAMMING
Note: This MANDATORY programming step must be completed for the AvantGuard 4 to operate properly.
1.Drive the vehicle to a nearby open area and allow the engine to warm-up until the RPMs drop to the normal idle speed.
2.With the engine still running and the transmission in PARK or NEUTRAL, enter the factory preset PIN
code of “2” by pressing the
PlainView 2 Switch’s✱button two times, then press the blank button.
3.Immediately press and HOLD the PlainView 2 Switch’s ✱button for about 15 seconds until you hear 3 chirps (you’ll hear 1, then 3).
4.Press and release the blank button of the PlainView 2 Switch once. Pause. You will hear 1 chirp.
5. Press the ✱button of the PlainView 2 Switch 5 times (you will hear a chirp each time). Pause. You will hear 2chirps to confirm
that RPM has been set (if you hear just one chirp, check connection of the BLACK/GRAY wire). Turn the ignition off.
6.If working on an automatic transmission vehicle, you must also set the transmission type to automatic. See page 20.
Wireless Immobilizer
The Wireless Immobilizer can be installed anywhere in the vehicle where there is a 12V line that will shut down the engine when
cut. You must note the location of the Wireless Immobilizer on the form provided. A copy of this form must be given to the vehicle
owner and one must be kept on file at the facility where the system was installed.
NOTE: The Wireless Immobilizer is a normally closed relay that operates via the power of the circuit that it
interrupts. When the Wireless Immobilizer receives power, it looks for an RF signal from the AvantGuard 4 for
20 seconds. If it gets the proper signal within the 20 second time frame, the relay stays close d. If it does not
receive the correct signal within the allotted time, the relay opens and the vehicle is immobilized.
DO NOT INSTALL THE WIRELESS IMMOBILIZER UNTIL ALL OTHER COMPONENTS OF THE SECURITY SYSTEM
INSTALLATION HAVE BEEN COMPLETED AND THE SYSTEM HAS BEEN POWERED UP!
1.Find a positive ignition wire or positive fuel pump wire.
2. Connect the negative lead of the Clifford Signal Strength Indicator to ground and probe the wire wi th
the positive lead of the Signal Strength Indicator. In order to insure sufficient signal strength,you must
use the Clifford Signal Strength Indicator to probe the line!
Using the Clifford Signal Strength Indicator
The positive lead is used to probe the 12V line, and the negative lead
is connected to ground. To test the line, connect both leads and start
the engine. The LED status indicators will display the signal strength
for 20 seconds:
nThe 12VDC LED should be lit solid.
nThe DATA LED should be lit solid or flashing rapidly.
nAll 8 of the signal strength LEDs should be lit
If any of the above are not present, choose a different lead to interrupt.
3. Start the car. You will have 20 seconds to verify that the wire has 12V while the engine is runningand that the
signal is strong enough for the Wireless Immobilizer.
4. With the engine running, cut the wire. The engine should shut down. If not, reconnect the severedline and
choose another circuit to interrupt.
NOTE:If the ignition is left ON and the engine has not beenstarted, most vehicles will stop supplying power to
the 12V circuit that goes to the fuel pump.
5.Connect the BLACK wire labeledIgnition Fuel Input +12Vto the key side of the cut line.
6. Connect the BLACK wire labeledIgnition Fuel Output +12Vto the engine side of the cut line.
7. Connect the ground wire to ground.
8.Mount the Wireless Immobilizer securely with tie wraps, double-backed tape, velcro or any other sui
table secure mounting method.
NOTE: The ground point used by the Wireless Immobilizer must be very clean. A factory bolt that h as been
completely cleaned with a wire brush is recommended.
9)Remove the labels from all wires.
AvantGuard 4/699 13

Remote Control Operation
The AvantGuard 4 comes with two ergonomically designed remote controls: a 16-channel master remote and a 4-channel secondary
“companion” remote. Up to a total of four AvantGuard 4 type remote controls can be added to the Av antGuard 4 system. Due to
the ACG 2 feature on the AvantGuard 4 system, older Clifford ACG and non-ACG remotes are incompatib le with the AvantGuard
4.
Master Remote Control Operation
To transmit either channel 1, 2, 3 or 4:Just press either button 1, 2, 3 or 4. While you transmit, the
LED indicator on the remote control will flash once every second: this indicates level 1.
To transmit either channel 5, 6, 7 or 8:Press the LevelShift button once. This shifts buttons 1–4 to
level 2 (channels 5–8). Then press the desired button within the next 7 seconds. For instance, to
transmit channel 5, press the LevelShift button once, then press button 1. while you transmit, you’ll
notice that the LED indicator on the remote control flashes twice, pauses, flashes twice, etc.: this indicates level 2.
To transmit channel 9, 10, 11 or 12:Press the LevelShift button twice. This shifts the buttons to level 3 (channels 9–12). Then press
the corresponding button within the next 7 seconds. The LED on the remote control flashes three times to indicate level 3.
To transmit channel 13, 14, 15 or 16:Press the LevelShift button three times. This shifts the buttons to level 4 (channels 13–16).
Then press the corresponding button within the next 7 seconds. The LED on the remote control flashes four times to indicate level 4.
NOTE: One second after you stop transmitting levels 2, 3 or 4 (channels 5–16), the remote automatically
returns to level 1 (channels 1–4).

Sensor Adjustment
Digital/Tilt Motion Sensor
The Digital Tilt Motion Sensor is completely self-adjusting. No sensitivity settings or adjustments are ever required.
Digital Dual-Zone Proximity Sensor
Be aware that the Proximity Sensor uses radar waves to detect movement. These waves pass through no nmetallic materials like
plastic, carpet, glass and wood. However, metal and metallic-colored paint, metallic-colored plasti c and even some metallic window
tinting materials will interfere with or completely block the radar waves. As such, it is not unusu al that the Proximity Sensor zones
require some adjustment after installation. In some instances, you may need to try a different location for the sensor.
Since any metal objects above or near the Proximity Sensor will have a significant impact onoperation, warn
your customer never to place coins, CDs, cassettes (due to the iron oxide tape) or other metall ic objects above
or near where the sensor is mounted.
1.Turn off any fluorescent lights that may interfere with the sensitivity testing of the AvantGuard 4’s radar sensor.
2. Disarmthe system with the remote control.
3. Transmit channel 16on the master remote (LevelShift three times, then button 4). You will hear onechirp and the LED will turn on.
4. Test the Proximity Sensor’s primaryzone by rapidly leaning through an open window into the passenger compartment. You will
hear a siren chirp when the primary zone is triggered. This should not occur near the window, but i nstead when you would be in a
position to touch the car stereo.
nTo change the sensitivity of the primary zone, press and releasebutton 2 to increasesensitivity or button 4 to decrease
sensitivity. To rapidly increase or decrease several steps, press and hold the button. For each sen
sitivity increase, you will hear a
higher and higher pitched confirmation chirp. For each sensitivity decrease, you will hear a lower and lower pitched
confirmation chirp. Two LoudChirps indicate minimum and maximum settings of the 32-step range of se ttings. You may now
press button 3to adjust the warning zone, or press button 1
to fully exit the Proximity Sensor adjustment mode (you will hear
3 chirps).
nTo change the sensitivity of thewarningzone, press button 3
(you’ll hear 1 chirp). Then use the same procedure as above, but
this time, rapidly bring your hands and face to the window as a thief would to see what’s inside. The sensitivity of the warning
zone should be set so that it is triggered when your face and hands are within a few inches of the window, no further. When
done, press button 1to reselect the primary zone (you will hear 2 chirps), then button 1 again to fully exit ProximitySensor
adjustment mode (you will hear 3 chirps).
5.Repeat the preceding steps as required. An improperly adjusted sensor will cause the AvantGuard 4 to false alarm or not respond
properly to a genuine threat. Keep in mind that you may need to reposition the sensor, possibly af ter the customer has had the
system for several days.
Remote-Controlled Override of Each Proximity Sensor Zone
Transmitting channel 10 at anytime from the remote while the system is armed will override the warning zone of the Proximity
Sensor. This prevents the system from sounding warnings if the vehicle must be parked in an area with heavy pedestrian traffic. A
second transmission of channel 10 anytime afterward while the system is still armed will override both zones of the Proximity Sensor.
This comes in handy when a pet or a passenger must be left in the vehicle. The channel 10 warning zone override is visually
confirmed with 4 flashes of the parking lights. A second channel 10 transmission to override both zones is confirmed with four more
flashes. The sensor zones are automatically restored the next time you arm.
Adjusting the NightVision 4 Photo Sensor
The AvantGuard 4 NightVision feature is adjustable according to light sensitivity detected by its photo sensor. When the photo
sensor detects that there is a decrease in the amount of light, it will turn the headlights on automatically. When the sensor detects a
sufficient increase in the amount of light so that headlights are not required, it will automatically turn the headlights off. To adjust
the sensitivity of the photo sensor, follow the instructions provided in the User-Programmable Features section or use the CliffNet
Wizard Pro installation software.
AvantGuard 4/69915

FACT—False Alarm Control and Test
The system microprocessor automatically checks for another activated sensor or trigger before sound ing the siren a second time, thus
preventing any further false alarms. If you wish to test FACT, simply:
1. Arm the system with the remote control.
2. Wait 10 seconds after the interior light turns off, then trigger the Proximity Sensor to activate the siren.
3.Do not disarm the system, let the siren complete its cycle.
4.Trigger the sensor again. The alarm should be silent.
5. Unlock and open a door. The alarm should sound immediately. You may now disarm.
Eight-Event TotalRecall
The system’s nonvolatile memory records the identity of the last eight activated or malfunctioning triggers and sensors:
1. With the ignition OFF, press and hold the blank side of the PlainView 2 Switch.
2. Press remote control button 1 to “arm,” and then again to “disarm,” and then release the button.
3. The LED will flash 1–10 times, pause, then flash 1–10 times, etc. Write down the number of flashes in each cycle.
4.Refer to the following chart. The first number you wrote down was the most recently activated trigg er or sensor. The next number
is the second most recent, and so on up to as many as the last eight activations.

5.If a sensor is often activated, decrease that sensor’s sensitivity (or reposition the sensor, if ne cessary). If a certain trigger is often
activated, check pin switch operation, verify that the pin switch is not exposed to moisture and ch eck the trigger wire for possible
shorting.

System Checklist & Troubleshooting
The following checklist and troubleshooting tips will assure that you have installed the Av antGuard 4 correctly. If the system does
not react as noted, follow the troubleshooting tip(s) denoted with a black box below that item, then repeat the step. Each successive
step requires that the previous step has been completed as indicated.
The Clifford Wizard simplifies the troubleshooting process by providing system diagnostic information in a graphical format. All
system settings are provided at-a-glance, and adjustments to the system settings can be made with aclick of a mouse. This reduces
the amount of time required for performing the following tests.
Step 1.
Re-enable the courtesy lights.
In step 1 of the ImportantInformation section in this binder, the interior courtesy lights were disabled. You must now re-enable
the courtesy lights by replacing the fuse you removed or reset the courtesy light switch back to its normal “DOOR” position before
proceeding.
Step 2.
Test the Immobilization and Wireless Immobilizer circuits.
a.Arm the AvantGuard 4 (either from inside or outside the vehicle) and wait 10 seconds. Turn the igni tion to the “ON” position.
nEngine does not respond. This is the correct response, proceed to the Immobilization test.
nEngine starts or cranks. The starter/ignition/fuel pump or immobilization circuits have been miswired. Carefully retest the
vehicle wires as noted in the Starter and Ignition Connections sectionon page 10. Be sure the ignition input/output is correct!
nEngine still starts or cranks after retesting all the wiring as noted on page 10,check the power and ground connections. Then
make sure the fuses are in the fuseholders, verify the control unit connectors are securely fastened, verify the ignition input
and output wires are connected to the true ignition line instead of a 12V or accessory line, and ve rify that the transmitters are
programmed correctly.
b. Test the wireless Immobilizer by disarming the AvantGuard 4, turning the ignition “ON” and crankingthe engine.
nEngine starts and runs for up to one minute. This is the correct response, proceed to step 3.
nEngine starts, then stops running after several seconds. The wireless Immobilizer needs to be synchronised. If the system
does not disarm properly, refer to step 8.
oLocate the Wireless Immobilizer.
oPress down firmly on the top of the Wireless Immobilizer and hold. You should feel the top of the enclosure move
inward slightly as you apply pressure.
owhile you are pressing the top of the Wireless Immobilizer enclosure, have someone start the engine . Release the top of
the immobilizer once the engine has successfully started.
oAfter 30 seconds have passed, turn OFF the engine.
nEngine starts, then stops running after several seconds after all the above tests are performed.Test the wiring in/out and
ground.
Step 3.
Test the chirps.
Close all doors and arm the AvantGuard 4 by pressing button 1 on the remote control.
n2 Chirps: This is the correct response. Proceed to step 4.
n4 Chirps: If you hear 4 chirps either immediately or 5-10 seconds after the initial two chirps, a tri gger or sensor is open or
active, or the vehicle has delayed courtesy lights and the Delayed Courtesy Lights feature has not been programmed on.
Disarm with the remote control, enter the vehicle and turn on the ignition. The LED will fl ash 1–10 times, pause, then repeat
the same number of flashes (the flash cycle repeats five times for your convenience). Refer tothe following chart.

oIf the Proximity Sensoris indicated, check the mounting location and sensitivity setting as noted in the Sensor Adjustment
section on page 16. If one of the trigger points is indicated, check pin switch operation and check for shorts in the
trigger line.
oIf the tilt sensor is indicated, check the mounting location and, if necessary, cut the small black wireloop (see diag ram on
page 5) to enable the two-minute arming delay.
oIf the door triggeris indicated, activate the delayed courtesy lights feature.
nNo chirps. If there are no chirps, verify that the Chirps feature (column 2, row 1) is “On” and check the wiring connections as
noted in the Self-Powered SmartSiren 4 section on page 12.
NOTE: If none of the troubleshooting techniques described in steps 3 - 7 corrects the problem, perform the
following diagnostics:
oMake sure the fuses are in the fuseholders.
oCheck the power and ground connections.
oVerify that the control unit connectors are properly inserted into the control unit.
oVerify that the ignition input and output wires are connected to the true ignition line inst ead of a 12V line. Find the
true ignition line by following steps 1-4 of the Starter and Ignition Connectionssection on page 10.
oVerify that the transmitters are programmed correctly.
NOTE: If the 20-amp fuse blows upon arming:
oDisconnect the AvantGuard 4’s two Parking light wires, replace the 20-amp fuse and rearm. If the fuse does not blow,
one (or both) of the vehicle’s Parking light wires is shorting. Find and correct the short(s), reconnect the Parking light
wires, then rearm.
oIf the fuse blows while the Parking light wires are disconnected, the door locks are not wired co rrectly. Reconnect the
vehicle’s door locking system to its original condition, then retest the voltages as indi cated in the Central Door
Locking/Unlockingsection of this binder and wire the locks as indicated, then replace the 20-amp fuse.
Step 4.
Test the parking lights.
Arm the system by pressing button 1 on the remote control.
nTwo flashes.This is the correct response, proceed to step 5.
nOne flash. If the Parking lights flash only once, the AvantGuard 4 had previously AutoArmed itself passively and by pressing
button 1 the system disarmed (remote disarming is acknowledged with one Parking light flash ). Repeat step 1.
nNo flashes. If no flashes, verify the Parking light bulbs are operational. If not, they must be replaced. I f so, repeat steps 1-5 of
the Parking lights section in this binder.
nOnly one side flashes.If only the right or the left side Parking lights flash, see theParking Lightssection in this binder.
Step 5.
Test the electric windows.
Arm the system by pressing button 1 on the remote control.
nelectric windows close. This is the correct response, proceed to step 6.
nelectric windows do not close. If the electric windows do not close, disarm and rearm the system (the one-time Window
RollUp Bypass feature may have been activated—arming and rearming will deactivate it). Make sure the Window RollUp
