However, metal and metallic paint, plastic and even some metallic film window tinting materials will interfere with or completely block the radar waves. As such, it is not unusual that the Proximity Sensor zones may need a little readjustment when you first have the system installed. In some instances, your Clifford installer may need to try a different location for the sensor. If needed, you can adjust sensitivity of these sensor zones via your remote control as described in the following section. To prevent falsing, system sensors are bypassed when the engine is remotely started. Metal above or near the Proximity Sensor will have a significant impact on operation. You should not place coins, CDs, cassettes (due to the iron oxide tape) or other metallic objects above or near where the sensor is mounted. Ask your Authorized Clifford Dealer about these optional sensors that will further enhance the security of your vehicle: n Glass Tampering Sensor: Today's thieves shatter vehicle windows with a small metal punch device that does not create any vibrations for an n Dual-Zone OmniSensor: Uses our most advanced DSP (digital signal processing) to detect theft-related impacts and vibrations. The Glass Tampering Sensor detects the sound of glass breaking, and glass tampering attempts, and will trigger the alarm. discrimination algorithms differentiate better than any other sensor between common environmental conditions (such as a heavy truck rolling by) and genuine threats to your vehicle. Remote controlled sensor adjustments If the setting(s) of the sensor zones are either too sensitive or not sensitive enough, you may test and adjust them with the master remote control: 1. Disarm the system with the remote control. Select which sensor to adjust: · OmniSensor: Transmit channel 15 on the master remote (LevelShift three times, then button 3). You will hear one chirp and the LED will turn on. · Proximity Sensor: Transmit channel 16 on the master remote (LevelShift three times, then button 4). You will hear one chirp and the LED will turn on. Adjustment of OmniSensor: To test the primary (alarm) zone, press button 4 (you will hear a 4-chirp confirmation), then firmly "thump" the top of the A-pillar (the area between the side windows near the roof) heel of your fist. If the impact is strong enough to trigger the primary zone, you will hear a siren chirp. To change sensitivity, press button 2 (you will hear a 2-chirp confirmation), then firmly thump the top of the A-pillar with the amount of force that you want set off the alarm (a single chirp will acknowledge the thump). Press button 4 to lock in the new setting. You may now press button 3 to adjust the warning zone (as noted in 3a. below), or press button 1 to fully exit the OmniSensor adjustment mode (you will hear 3 chirps). [. . . ] You must now add new/existing remotes with the "Add master remote control" feature and/or the "Other vehicle`s remote" feature. NOTE 4: Immediately PRESS THE BLANK BUTTON, THEN enter your new code, wait for the two chirps, then turn off the ignition (you'll hear 3 chirps to confirm program mode exit). You MUST now turn the ignition back on and then re-enter your new PIN code. If the LED flashes on, your new code has been accepted. [. . . ]
