Valet Mode bypasses the functions of your remote starter. It is used in the event you bring your vehicle in for service, loan your vehicle to
someone, or if you have your vehicle parked by valet service. Valet Mode is used as a precaution so there is no accidental activation of the
remote start.
To place your system into Valet Mode you must turn the Ignition On and Off for 5 times within 7 seconds with key. When the parking lights
flash once, pauses and then flashes twice, your system is now in Valet Mode. Please follow this diagram below:
