NOTE: If the optional two step unlock feature was installed, then only the driver's door will
unlock during step 1 above. To unlock all doors, press the unlock button of the
transmitter a second time.
3. Never attempt to disarm the system from a distance that prevents you from opening a door
within 30 seconds, when the system is programmed for passive arming as the system
will begin to rearm until a door is opened. Opening the door will suspend the passive arming
cycle.
CAR FINDER:
As an added convenience, your system has the ability to flash the parking lights and sound
the vehicle's horn, (If these options have been added), on command from the transmitter.
This feature is particularly useful to help locate your vehicle in a crowded parking lot. To
access this feature, simply press and hold the Asterisk button of your keychain transmitter
for three seconds. This mode will cancel automatically after 30 seconds, or you can
cancel it from the transmitter by pressing the same transmitter button again for three
seconds. This mode can also be canceled immediately, by pressing any button other than
the lock or unlock button.
VALET SWITCH
The valet switch allows you to temporarily bypass your system's security functions,
eliminating the need to hand your transmitter to parking attendants or garage mechanics.
When the system is in valet mode, the starter inhibit feature, if installed, is bypassed,
however the remote door locks will remain operational. To use the valet mode, the system
must first be disarmed either by using your keychain transmitter, or by manually overriding
the system.
1. Enter the vehicle, and turn the ignition key to the on position.
2. Press and hold the valet push-button switch until the dash mounted LED turns
on solid indicating that the valet mode has been entered successfully.
3. To return to normal operation, press and release the push-button switch any
time the ignition is on.
NOTE: Always remember to exit the valet mode to ensure that the vehicle remains
protected at all times.
MANUALLY OVERRIDING YOUR SYSTEM:
USING THE VALET SWITCH MANUAL OVERRIDE
Your Security System can be disarmed without the use of the keychain transmitter. This is
necessary, since you will need the ability to operate your vehicle if the transmitter is lost or its
battery fails. If your system has been selected for Valet Switch manual override as indicated
on the last page of this manual, to bypass the alarm system;
1. Open the vehicle door.
2. Turn the ignition key to the on position.
3. Within 5 seconds, press and release the valet push-button switch.
The system will enter the (bypassed) mode. You can now start and operate the vehicle
normally. Typically this override mode is used only if the transmitter has become inoperative.
