[. . . ] Model APS-410 Owner's Manual 4 Button Remote Security System with Dual Stage Shock Sensor IMPORTANT !In order to provide the highest possible level of security to your vehicle, this system is equipped with selectable manual override circuitry. It is possible that you will need to manually override your security system if the transmitter becomes lost, or inoperative due to battery failure. Reading the sections on "MANUALLY OVERRIDING YOUR SYSTEM" is necessary to fully understand the procedure required to enable your vehicle in such situations.

WHILE THE SYSTEM IS SOUNDING If during a triggered state, you wish to shut off the siren without disarming your security system, simply press and release any transmitter button other than the disarm button.

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.

The LED will remain on as long as the system is in valet mode. To return to normal operation, press and release the push button switch any time the ignition is on.
