I just bought a Golf GTi that came with a Cat 1 clifford, but the button markings on the remote have worn off, not good for someone who's never used it before

Could someone (most likely offhand which is the reason i posted) tell me what the buttons do please?


Obviously ive sussed lock/unlock but whats the others?

Dont tell me to use google etc, i post here because someone will know offhand

Top right is lock / unlock (turn alarm on / off) and bottom right will be boot release (if hooked up)

the others on the left will have * and ** on them but fuck knows what they do, I bought a car with the same but have no idea what they do!

zetecapri

you hook them up yourself, standard they dont do anything, you can have it wired up to flash headlights, beep horn, and other alarm features etc

The ** (bottom left) locks / unlocks silently

The bottom right is to pop the boot solinied(sp) (if fitted)

Fuck knows what the star is (top left)

the other 2 can be rigged up for extras like remote start. also to set alarm in valet mode.

That remote has more than 4 functions, which are accessed using different combinations of pairs of buttons after the 4 functions of single buttons and are almost all configurable.

That is a slave remote, by the way.

Great stuff, thanks alot guys

Ive got the instruction manual that came with it and it tells you all about the buttons, and what does what etc, and all about the * buttons etc but obviously it wasn't any use to me until i sussed out what button is what

Thanks again chaps

BM08

What do you mean its a slave remote? i take it this is the backup remote not the original? if so does it matter? thats the only one i was given, along with manual and certificate

Theres an extra button on the the master remote, can`t remember what it does now but should say in the manual

BM08

apart from that theres nothing wrong with only having the slave remote?

I suppose it depends what this extra button does, mind you this one ive got now seems to do pretty much everything

Ill look in the manual, thanks for that

My saph came with one m8 wish i'd ripped it out earlier tbh.

KEITH-

Do you know which Clifford you have?
The remote you have is a companion remote & the standard functions are:
Top right = Arm / Disarm (you should here 2 chirps for arm & 1 for disarm) anything different is a faul warning eg 4 chirps is bonet / boot open.
Pressing Both top buttons is silent arm / disarm for late nights & early mornings (2 flashes is on & 1 is off)

The Concept 300 (cat1) & some of the range used 2 companion remotes so there may be no master remote.

if you look VERY closely at the pic you can still suss what the images show lol. I can sort of suss the boot popper and a bit of lock/unlock

BM08

yeah its the G4 Concept 300 mate

yeah i looked at the actual remote and your right, you can just make out the boot pop one, shows how good my camera is

KEITH-

The Concept 300 had 2 Companion remotes & no Master remote.
If you only have the one remote it may be a good idea to CLEAR all remotes then re program the one you have so nobody else will have a remote that works your car!
Is the valet code on the back of your instruction manual?

BM08

yeah 4 digit code

The main thing is im not missing any functions by not having the other one? and how do i go about clearing the remote and re programming? i guess thats in the manual, havent had a chance to study it yet

KEITH-

The Valet code is important as it will allow you to over ride the Clifford in an emergancy, eg broken remote - droped it down the grid etc
It also allows you to access the programable features.

To check it is the correct code: or emergancy overide

Find the valet switch which has 2 small rubber buttons, one smooth & the other has a raised X. This should be someware on your dashboard.
The X button is for the number and the smooth button is like pressing (enter)
You must have the key in the ignition & turned to the fully on position.

If your code was 1234 this would be X (enter) then XX (enter) then XXX (enter) then XXXX (enter)
If you do this with your code the Clifford LED should flash to confirm.

To clear all remote controls
If all is ok you will need to do the same again but after the led flashes you need to press and hold the X button on the valet switch until the LED lights up and stays on then
press the smooth (enter) button twice....... (wait & you should here 2 chirps)
Then press the X button 6 times...... wait and you should here 2 chirps to confirm.
Turn the ignition key off. (your remote will no longer work)

To program remote back in
Ignition on
Enter you valet code into valet switch.
Press & hold X button until LED comes on.
1 press of smooth button.....wait for 1 chirp
1 press of X button then press top right button on your remote twice.
Turn off ignition.
ONLY YOUR REMOTE WILL NOW WORK.

If you have any problems you can PM me and I will talk you through it when I am at work tommorow. (9 til 5.30)
