Default Clifford Alarm Manual. Anybody have one?

So my 1984 Porsche 928S has a Clifford Alarm System, but I don't have a manual. Here's a pic of a keypad. If you anyone has a manual can you make into a PDF form.

Thank you

do a google search for Clifford Model 7. Pelican has a thread with pics of the manual.

Yeah saw that one. I was wondering if someone else might have another manual from 1984 for the system. If not i'm gonna go with that one.

Back in the 80's consumer electronics didn't have the fast moving rotation of models like we do now. I was in the car audio industry as an installer from 83-86. We were a Clifford dealer and the model 7 was stuck in the cobwebs of my mind as I installed many.

I've certainly got one....somewhere.

However, kind of a waste of time. Unless you know the code for the main "brain", you're not going to get very far.

A good way to find out if the system is even functional would be to reset it. Push down the lower right and left buttons at the same time and hold them down. That is the panic/reset procedure.

Just to confirm its a Model 7. If so thanks for the help.

Oh by the way I don't have the code for it. I disconnected it, but still turns on. Just need to figure how to reprogram to enter a new code. The old owner I think had the code somewhere, but unfortunately he passed away a couple weeks after we first chatted when I bought the car from him.

If anyone can reset the alarm code without knowing the old code, what was the purpose of the alarm? Seems like completely removing it is probably the better way to go.

I disconnected the system and just left there for looks only, but I think eventually I will remove out of the car.

Greg Brown if you do you have a manual let me know. I can take it off your hands.
