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 activating your personalized
manual override code.
1. Enter the vehicle, and turn the ignition key to the on position.
2. Press and hold the PBLED switch until the LED turns on solid. The system will remain in
the valet mode.
3. To return to normal operation, press and release the PBLED switch any time the ignition
is on.
Note: Always remember to return the vehicle to the valet off position. This will ensure that
the vehicle remains protected at all times.
MANUALLY OVERRIDING YOUR SYSTEM:
USING THE PBLED OVERRIDE SWITCH
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. The alarm will sound.
2. Turn the ignition key to the on position.
3. Within 5 seconds, press and release the PBLED override switch.
The alarm system will stop sounding and 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.
Programming Your Custom Override Code:
Unlike override switches easily found, and defeated, this security system allows the
consumer to program a personal override code, offering a higher level of security. To take
advantage of this option, programmable feature # 10 must be selected for the Custom Code
Option. Consult your installation center for programming details. The system comes from
the factory with a pre-programmed override code of 11. To change this default override
code, do the following:
1. Disarm the system by use of the transmitter, or by use of the emergency override
sequence. Turn the ignition switch to the on position.
2. Within 10 seconds, press and release the PBLED switch, 3 times.
3. Within 10 seconds turn the ignition switch off, on, off, on, off, on.
(The siren or horn will beep and the lights will flash one time.)
4. Within 10 seconds, begin to enter your chosen 10ths digit by pressing and releasing
the PBLED switch from 1 up to 9 times.
5. Within 10 seconds of the last entered 10ths digit, turn the ignition switch off then on.
6. Within 10 seconds, begin to enter your chosen units digit by pressing and releasing the
PBLED switch from 1 up to 9 times.
7. Finish by turning the ignition switch to the off position.
If the new code was accepted, the unit will report back the newly entered code, by
flashing the LED, first indicating the 10ths digit, pause and then the units digit. The unit will
report the new code three times with a one second pause between each code, then the
system will begin arming. If the LED flash pattern reports the previously stored code, the
new code was not entered correctly. Please repeat steps 1 through 7 above considering
the following.
Note: Acceptable digits 10ths or units are 1 through 9. The unit will not recognize a 0
(Zero), or no digit entered in any place, units or tenths.
Note: If 15 seconds of inactivity expire, or if the ignition switch is turned off for more
