•If the LED is flashing two times...pause...two times...pause...etc., then an intrusion attempt was made to a hood or trunk pin switch that was added to the system, or to a light activated entry point if the alarm was installed using the voltage sensing feature.

ŽIf the LED is flashing three times...pause...three times...pause...etc., then an intrusion attempt was made through one of the vehicle’s doors.

These intrusion warning indicators are stored in the system’s memory and will only be erased when the ignition key is turned on.

VALET SWITCH

The valet switch allows you to temporarily bypass all alarm functions, eliminating the need to hand your transmitter to parking attendants or garage mechanics. When the system is in valet mode, all alarm functions are bypassed, however the remote panic feature and 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 operating the manual override sequence.

1.From the disarmed condition, turn the ignition key to the on position.

2.Press and hold the valet pushbutton switch until the dash mounted LED, turns on. The LED will remain on as long as the system is in valet mode.

3.To return to normal operation, press and release the push button switch any time the ignition is on.

NOTE: Always remember to return the system to the NON VALET mode, after servicing, 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 by-pass the alarm system.

1.Open the vehicle door. The alarm will sound.

2.Turn the ignition key to the on position.

3.Within 5 seconds, press and release the valet push button switch.

The alarm system will stop sounding and enter the disarmed mode. You can now start and operate the vehicle normally.

Typically this override mode is used only if the transmitter has become inoperative. You may elect to enter the VALET mode until repair or replacement of the transmitter, after which, returning the system to the full operation mode is necessary. To do so, see item 3 under the heading VALET SWITCH.
