Valet Mode
Allows you to temporarily disable the security system when the car is being serviced or turned
over to a parking attendant.
To turn Valet Mode on or off:
1. Turn on the ignition.
2. Press and hold the override switch.
3. While holding the override switch, turn off the ignition.
• The siren will chirp
once to indicate you have turned Valet Mode on.
• The siren will chirp twice to indicate you have turned Valet Mode off.
4. Release the override switch.
While Valet Mode is on, you can continue to lock and unlock your doors with the Remote
Transmitters, as well as operate the Auxiliary Functions.
For added protection, when the doors are locked by the Remote Transmitter, the system’s Starter
Disable circuit will activate and the LED will emit double flashes until the system is unlocked by
the Remote.
If the Remote Transmitter is lost, stolen, or becomes inoperable while the car is locked in Valet
Mode, you can use the
Emergency Override procedure to deactivate the Starter Disable circuit.
Ignition Controlled Door Locking
For added convenience and safety, this feature automatically locks your car’s doors 10 seconds
after the ignition key is turned on and unlocks the doors when the ignition key is turned off.
To prevent you from accidentally locking your keys inside the car:
• The system will not automatically lock the doors if a door is open when the ignition key is turned on.
• The system will not automatically lock the doors if a door is opened during the first 10 seconds after the
ignition key is turned on.
Dome Light Control
As an option for increased safety and convenience, the system can be set, during the installation,
to automatically turn on the dome light when you Disarm the system, and also when you turn off
the ignition.
Illuminated Entry. The dome light will turn on for 20 seconds when the system is disarmed (or
unlocked in Valet Mode) using the Remote Transmitter.
Illuminated Exit. If the ignition key has been on for at least 10 seconds, the dome light will turn
on for 20 seconds when you turn off the ignition.
