Quick Reference

When servicing or loaning your vehicle to others, the system should be placed in Valet Mode. Valet Mode prevents the system from remote starting and disables

all alarm functions.

IMPORTANT:

While in Valet mode the remote will still control power lock and unlock systems. The parking lights will not flash.

The system can be put into valet one of three ways:

1.  Turn the vehicle’s key to the ignition “on” position and tap buttons                                   simultaneously for 0.5 second. The parking lights will flash once and/or

siren chirp once to confirm the system is in valet mode. Repeat this process to take the system out of valet mode. The parking lights will flash twice and/or siren

chirp once to confirm the system is out of valet mode.

2. If you do not have your remote control, you can put the system into valet by turning the ignition key “on” and then “off” five times within 7 seconds. The

parking lights will flash once to confirm the system is in valet mode. Shortly after the first flash, the parking lights will flash twice. A remote control is required to

take the system out of valet mode. 

IMPORTANT:

If your system is set up for a secure valet option, you will not be able to put the system into valet until the proper code has been entered to the 

secure valet switch.

3.  If your system is set up for the secure valet option (optional), you will not be able to put the system into valet until the proper code has been entered to the

secure valet switch. The secure valet switch is the small button with bright blue LED on the front and if installed is the only way to override the alarm and/or

remote start. Until programmed, the default code is (3, 3).
