EASY VALET & STARTING VALET MODES
The Valet Switch is in the Status Indicator Light/Valet Switch Assembly.
The installer has the option of utilizing an additional, separate Valet Switch
should a hidden Valet Switch location be desired. Please ensure that you and
others who use your vehicle are aware of the location of the Valet Switch.
Easy Valet Mode:
This allows you to turn off all of the “alarm”
operations of the security system while retaining the remote convenience
features such as keyless entry, Panic, and the Auxiliary Outputs. The system
may only be placed into Easy Valet when it’s disarmed; if armed, an
Emergency Override must be performed before placing into Easy Valet
Mode. Once the system is in Easy Valet Mode, it cannot become armed from
the transmitter, Last Door Arming, or Automatic Rearming.
Although both operations use the Valet Switch, Easy Valet Mode and
Emergency Override are two similar, but different procedures. Emergency
Override disarms an armed and activated system, and requires the ignition
key. Easy Valet Mode turns off the alarm operations of the disarmed system,
but without the need of the ignition key.
Easy Valet Mode is designed for situations in which it is not convenient
for the security portion of the system to be operational. For example: During
extended stopovers for vehicle servicing, maintenance, valet parking, wash-
ing, etc.
Starting Valet Mode:
This feature is similar to Easy Valet, but its
purpose is turn off the remote starting operations of the system. The system
may be placed into Starting Valet Mode and Easy Valet Mode indepen-
dently, or into both modes at the same time. Please note that the only
difference in obtaining either mode is whether or not the brake pedal is being
pressed.
To enter Easy Valet Mode:
With the system disarmed, and without pressing the brake pedal, Press &
Hold the Valet Switch for 2 seconds.
- The siren will chirp twice, the parking lights will flash twice and the
Status Indicator Light will illuminate solid Red, then a series of Green
flashes, then return to solid Red. The Green flashes, numbering from 1
to 6 times, is a remote starting diagnostic code (see page 21).
- To indicate that the system is in Easy Valet Mode, the Status Indicator
Light stays solid Red whenever the system is in Easy Valet Mode.
