Operating Instructions
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a XPRESS
START
system for your vehicle. In order to enjoy
the benefits of this system we recommend that you review the following manual.
Please visit www.xpresskit.com for additional support or contact your authorized
dealer.
Valet Mode
:
When servicing your vehicle the system should be placed in valet mode. Valet mode
prevents the system from remote starting and allows proper servicing.
Valet mode is controlled via the valet switch typically located at the underside of
the driver dashboard. The valet switch is a 1” round toggle switch with a white dot
marking the “ON’ position on one side and no white dot marking the “VALET” po-
sition on the other side. To engage valet mode, depress the blank side of the switch.
To turn off valet mode, depress the side of the switch with the white dot.
Note
: When the system has been placed in valet mode, it is necessary to re-initialize
the starter system before the vehicle can be remote started again. To re-initialize the
system, first turn off valet mode and then simply start the vehicle with either the key
or using the KeylessGo Push Start Button and allow the vehicle to run for one (1)
minute. The vehicle can now be remote started.
Operation:
Your XPRESS
START
system can be operated in a number of ways. This includes
using the factory remote control key fob, an optional 1-way or 2-way long range
remote control, or the SmartStart smartphone application. For instructions on how
to use the long range remote or SmartStart controllers, refer to the operating /user’s
manual for those systems.
