The Valet Switch has several functions:
Using the Valet Switch-
Alarm Valet Mode & Starting Valet Mode
•
It is also used in the procedures for programming features and
programming transmitters to operate the system. See the
“Programming “ sections of this manual for details on these uses.
•
Should your transmitter be lost or become inoperable, the Valet Switch,
and the ignition key, can be used to disarm the system with an
Emergency Override.
•
Placing the system into Alarm Valet Mode, which prevents it from
arming.
•
Placing it into Starting Valet Mode, which prevents it from remote
starting.
Alarm 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. Remote starting
is still operable, and has its own valet mode (below). The system may only
be placed into Alarm Valet Mode when it’s disarmed; if armed, an Emer-
gency Override must be performed before placing into Alarm Valet Mode.
Once the system is in Alarm Valet Mode, it cannot become armed from the
transmitter, Last Door Arming, or Automatic Rearming.
Alarm Valet Mode and Emergency Override are two similar, but different
procedures, although both operations use the Valet Switch, . Emergency
Override disarms an armed and activated system, and requires the ignition
key. Alarm Valet Mode turns off the alarm operations of the disarmed
system, but without the need of the ignition key.
Alarm Valet Mode is designed for situations in which it is not convenient
for the security portion of the system to be operational, such as during
extended stopovers for vehicle servicing, maintenance, valet parking,
washing, etc.
To Enter Alarm Valet Mode:
With the system disarmed, and without
pressing the brake pedal, press and hold the Valet Switch for 2 seconds.

• The siren will chirp twice, the parking lights will flash twice and the Sta-
tus 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 23).
Step 1 Have all transmitters and/or optional controllers which are to
operate the system at hand. Turn the ignition “on”.
If the Unauthorized Transmitter Alert feature is on, programming a
transmitter or optional controller to the system will activate the
Unauthorized Transmitter Alert warning and the extended Status
Light visual display; for the next 48 hours the siren will sound a brief
series of chirps every time the vehicle’s ignition key is turned on.
The following special procedure programs the transmitter/controllers
and also turns the Unauthorized Transmitter Alert feature on.
Step 3 Press the “arm/lock” button on each remaining transmitter or
optional controller. The system will chirp the siren once to confirm
that each was learned. The transmitter or controller’s other three
button's functions will automatically be assigned when the “arm/
lock” button is learned. If a code is not received within a 10 second
period, the learning process will automatically terminate, as indicated
by another siren burst.
Step 2 Within 5 seconds of turning on the ignition, press the Valet Switch
5 times. The siren will briefly sound, confirming that for the next 10
seconds the system is ready to learn a transmitter/controller code.
To enter a code, simply press and release the “arm/lock” button
(the button which is designed to arm the system). When the first
code is learned all existing stored codes will be erased.

Special Programming procedure to turn On the UTA feature: Using this
method to program transmitters or optional controllers, and to turn on or turn
off the Unauthorized Transmitter Alert feature.
Follow the same steps as the Standard Programming, but on any
transmitter/controller being programmed instead of pressing the “arm/
lock” button, press the “arm/lock” and the “disarm/unlock” buttons together.
This action turns on the Unauthorized Transmitter Alert feature and at the
same time programs the transmitter or controller to operate the system.
Once the Unauthorized Transmitter Alert feature is turned on, the
warning will sound for 48 hours after any transmitter or controller
programming, including the programming session which was used to turn
it on.
Standard Programming: Using this method to program additional or
replacement transmitters and/or optional 2-way controllers does not turn on
or otherwise affect the Unauthorized Transmitter Alert (UTA) feature.
