Standard Features of the IntelliGuard 7OO-IQ
✔Limited Lifetime Warranty— For as long as you own the vehicle, Clifford
Electronics will repair or replace the control unit and remote controls free
of charge (see the warranty card for full details).
✔FACT™ — False Alarm Control and Test— One of many patented Clifford
innovations, FACT absolutely, positively eliminates recurring false alarms.
✔A Pair of 4-Button/12-Channel Remote Controls— Fingertip command
from a typical range of 100 feet. One of the remote controls has a
gun-metal gray finish, the other has a gorgeous laminated burlwood case.
✔AntiScan™— Some car thieves still use “scanners” that transmit one digital
code after another until they hit the one code that disarms the alarm.
AntiScan blocks scanners to prevent disarming by anyone other than you.
✔Anti-CodeGrabbing™ (ACG™) with Random Code Encryption— A
code-grabber is a new device that lets a thief record and capture off the
air from a distance the digital code transmitted by your remote control
whenever you arm your car. When you leave, the thief replays the code to
disarm the alarm and unlock your car’s doors. ACG with Random Code
Encryption makes thieves’ code-grabbers completely useless, because
each time you press the button on your remote control a different random
code is transmitted, yet the system will flawlessly recognize and respond
to your transmitter’s new code and ignore all others.
✔Full-Time Remote Panic with Automatic Door Locking and Unlocking—If
you feel threatened, you can, with just a fingertip touch on your remote
control, sound the siren, flash the parking lights and unlock your vehicle’s
power door locks for quick entry into your car without fumbling with your
keys. If you press the panic button while driving, the siren will sound, the
lights will flash and the doors will lock to shield you from the assailant
(some vehicles require optional relays to control the power locks).
✔UltraSecure Coded Valet Mode™—Ensures that no thief can turn off your
IntelliGuard 700-IQ like they can all other alarm brands.
Remote Controlled Valet Mode — Enable or disable valet mode from 100 feet
away! The parking lights and the system LED confirm valet mode entry and
exit.

Standard Features of the IntelliGuard 7OO-IQ (cont.)
✔Remotely Adjustable Dual-Zone Piezo Sensor™— With just a touch on the
remote, you may, at any time or place, adjust and test the sensitivity of
this microprocessor-controlled solid-state sensor. The two sensor zones
provide full perimeter protection: If someone bumps into your car, the
system will sound a distinctive warning tone; if forced entry is detected,
the full alarm will sound.
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.
Unprecidented Reliability —No moving mechanical parts to wear out and the
entire electronic circuitry resides in hte passenger compartment, not in the engine
well where it would be exposed to temperature extremes, water, vibration and dirt.
Adjust and Test Unobtrusively — No repeated arming and disarming, and no
siren wailing. You set and test sensitivity without activating the alarm!
✔Remote Override of Optional Sensor #2— A press of a button on your
remote control will override optional sensor #2 for those times when you
need to leave a passenger or pet in your vehicle.
✔Remote Headlight Activation Capability— Remotely turn on the headlights
to illuminate your way to and from your car (requires an optional relay).
✔Remote Window/Sunroof Closure Capability— On several models of
BMW, Volkswagen, Mercedes Benz and Jaguar, the IntelliGuard 700-IQ’s
integrated timer and an optional relay can be set to remotely close all the
power windows and sunroof every time you remotely arm the system
without the need for any optional modules.
✔Remote Controlled Door Lock/Unlock Outputs— A single press of remote
control button 1 simultaneously arms your IntelliGuard 700-IQ and locks
all the doors, another press disarms and unlocks (some vehicles require
optional relays).
User-Selectable AutoLock™ — Automatically locks the doors the doors the
instant you turn on the ignition to start the engine.
User-Selectable AutoUnLock — Automatically unlocks the doors when you turn
off the engine.
Deluxe Remote Keyless Entry in Valet Mode — Remote door locking/unlocking
with parking light confirmations and interior light illumination even in valet mode.

Standard Features of the IntelliGuard 7OO-IQ (cont.)
✔Remote Courtesy Lighting— Automatically turns on your vehicle’s
interior light(s) when you remotely disarm, and keeps them on for 30
seconds or until you start the engine, whichever occurs first.
✔Built-In Parking Light Flasher— The parking lights will visually confirm
alarm and doorlock status from a distance.
✔User-Programmable MultiSound Medallion™ Siren— Designed entirely by
Clifford engineers, this unique siren is far superior in performance,
features, reliability and even aesthetics to all other look-alike, sound-alike
sirens.
Personalized Siren Sounds™ — Up to 64 different siren sound combinations.
Ultra-Reliability — All electronics of the MultiSound Medallion Siren are built
into the control unit, sheltering them from the harsh underhood environment.
User-Selectable 30/60-Second Siren Duration
Patented Automatic Noise Abatement — Automatically limits siren sounding
to no more than 5 minutes even if a door is left open in the wake of an intrusion
attempt.
✔User-Selectable Headlight Reminder— Warns you if you forget to turn off
the headlights after you park your vehicle. If your vehicle already has this
feature, you may turn off IntelliGuard 700-IQ’s Headlight Reminder.
✔Enhanced AutoArming™—Automatically (passively) arms itself if you
forget. Qualifies you for a significant insurance discount (ask your insurance
company).
AutoArming Enable/Disable — Enable or disable the Enhanced AutoArming
features any time you wish.
AutoArm & Lock — Select whether or not the doors will lock when the system
automatically arms itself.
15-Second Entry Delay — If you ever temporarily lose the use of your remote
controls, an entry delay allows you to enter the vehicle and disarm the system
without sounding the siren.
Visual Confirmation — Two parking light flashes signal the AutoArming
countdown.
Instant AutoArming Bypass™ — A quick turn of the ignition switch will bypass
AutoArming for one cycle.

Standard Features of the IntelliGuard 7OO-IQ (cont.)
✔Smart Trunk Release Capability— An electronic interlock ensures that the
optional remote trunk release can be activated only when the system is
disarmed. To further prevent unintentional opening of the trunk, the
interlock also makes sure that the trunk release cannot be remotely
activated while driving.
✔Dual-Mode Chirp Silencing— Your choice of either long-term chirp
silencing or remote controlled chirp muting whenever you wish.
✔QuietChirps™ — You may select soft or full volume arm and disarm chirp
confirmations.
✔Patented Smart AutoTesting™— Automatically tests all sensors and triggers
every time you remotely arm the system and specifically identifies any
malfunction, virtually eliminating trouble-shooting time.
✔Patented Malfunction AutoBypass™— Automatically bypasses any trigger
or sensor malfunction, then arms all other points to continue to provide
the utmost possible protection. if you simply left the hood, trunk or a
door open when you armed, just close it and the system will again
monitor that point.
✔Eight-Event TotalRecall™ — Stores the identities of the last eight triggers
and/or sensors activated. This provides an invaluable diagnostic means.
✔Patented Smart Prior Intrusion Attempt Alert— Warns you from a distance
if an intrusion attempt was foiled while you were away. And IntelliGuard
700-IQ will specifically identify which sensor or trigger was activated.
✔Patented Remote Control Code Learning— Just a few flicks of a switch
lets you match to the system up to 4 different Clifford 12-channel remote
controls. Just as easily, a lost or stolen remote control can be deleted.
✔Multiple-Car Control— You may use the same remote to control up to
seven different vehicles.
✔Control Unit with 4 Channels— For remote system operation and
accessories.
6

Standard Features of the IntelliGuard 7OO-IQ (cont.)
✔User-Selectable Starter/Ignition Interrupt— You may choose either a
fault-proof mode, which lets you start the engine even in the unlikely
event of a system failure, or ultra-secure mode that ensures a thief won’t
be able to start the vehicle even if he finds the system control unit and
disconnects it!
✔High-Luminescence LED with Automatic Battery-Saving Mode— Adds
visual deterrence and identifies system status. To conserve vehicle battery
power (the LED draws more current than the entire control unit) the LED
flash rate will automatically be slowed to half it normal rate after the
system has remained armed for 48 hours, and a quarter its normal rate
after 96 hours.
✔SmartPowerUp™ II— When power to the system is disconnected, the
system’s non-volatile memory always remembers the last state (armed,
disarmed or valet mode) and returns to that state when power is restored.
So if a thief disconnects the power and then restores it in an attempt to
start the car, the system will re-arm and instantly sound the siren while
immobilizing the vehicle.
✔Multiple Trigger/Sensor Inputs— For precise identification of the exact
trigger or sensor tripped in a prior intrusion attempt.
✔Full-Time Programming Access— You can easily change the status of
more than 20 different user-selectable features at any time, even while
driving.

Welcome to the world of high-technology
vehicle security and convenience
Congratulations on the purchase of your IntelliGuard 700-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. Buying
Clifford has always meant buying the best, and nowhere is our commitment
to technological innovation, reliability and quality more evident than in the
astounding IntelliGuard 700-IQ.
Your IntelliGuard 700-IQ is loaded with protective features and lifestyle
convenience benefits that other car alarm companies don’t even have on their
wish lists, let alone their alarms. Features like Anti-CodeGrabbing™ that
fights off the latest and most onerous threat from high-tech thieves. A thief
equipped with a code-grabber can record with total impunity the codes of your
car alarm’s remote control from up to several hundred feet away. How? The
thief simply waits for you to arm or disarm your alarm with your remote
control. The thief’s portable, pocket-sized code-grabber will automatically
pick and record the transmitted code off the air. As soon as you walk away,
he simply plays it back, instantly disarming your alarm and unlocking the
doors. It’s like giving the thief your car keys. Code-grabbing will instantly
defeat all other brands of remote controlled car alarms, regardless of whether
they are equipped with anti-scanning or trillions of digital codes.
IntelliGuard 700-IQ’s unique PlainView Coded Valet Switch ensures that no
thief or joy-rider can turn off your IntelliGuard 700-IQ like they can with all
other car alarm brands. For total freedom from incorrectly adjusted sensors,
there’s remote controlled adjustment of the system’s dual-zone Piezo Sensor
that allows you to set the desired sensitivity levels any time or place with
just a touch of a button on your remote control. Plus there’s remote controlled
valet mode, remote controlled override of an optional sensor, an electronic inter-
lock to prevent accidental activation of the optional remote trunk release, optional
headlight activation, user-programmable MultiSound Medallion™ Siren with 64
distinctly different siren sound combinations sets your alarm apart from all
others, smart automatic locking/unlocking if you ever “panic” the system,
full-time programming access (even while driving), and much, much more.
Yet despite all the sophistication, the IntelliGuard 700-IQ is amazingly easy
to use: never more difficult than a few flicks of a switch or a press of a
button on one of your miniature keychain remote controls.
