[. . . ] The Valet® switch is activated by pressing the LED status indicator. Integrated LED/Valet® switch LED status indicator Turn the ignition to the "run"position. Press and release the integrated LED/Valet® switch, within 10 seconds. After a few seconds the LED will stop flashing and the vehicle should start. If it does not, you may have waited too long. Turn the ignition off and try again. DRW-35 note: The setting for the number of times the integrated LED/Valet® switch must be pressed is set in the Programming Section of this guide. © 2005 directed electronics, inc. 5 valet mode ® You can prevent your system from arming, by using Valet® Mode. This is very useful when washing the vehicle or having it serviced. In Valet® Mode, the system will not arm, even with the transmitter, but all convenience functions (door locks, trunk release, etc. ) will work normally. To enter or exit Valet® Mode with the integrated LED/Valet® switch: Turn ignition to "on" position, turn to "off" position. Press and release the integrated LED/Valet® switch within 10 seconds. The status LED will light steady if you have entered Valet® Mode. To exit Valet® Mode, repeat the steps above. The LED will turn off when exiting Valet® Mode. DRW-35 then remote valet ® Remote Valet® is a convenient feature that makes bypassing the security system easier. This feature makes it possible to exit or enter Valet® Mode using your factory keyless transmitter. The only ways to reset a bypassed zone are for it to not trigger for 60 minutes or to turn on the ignition. If testing your system, it is important to remember that this circuitry can cause zones to be bypassed and appear to stop working. If five chirps are heard when disarming, false alarm protection has engaged. If you wish to clear the memory, turn the ignition key on. 8 © 2005 directed electronics, inc. diagnostics The microprocessor at the heart of your system is constantly monitoring all of the switches and sensors connected to it. It detects any faulty switches and sensors and prevents them from disabling the entire system. The microprocessor will also record and report any triggers that occurred during your absence. arming diagnostics If the system is armed with an input active (door open, sensor triggering, etc. ) the unit will chirp once when arming and then one more time a few seconds later. This is called bypass notification. note: Bypass notification will not occur if chirps have been programmed OFF. The system will ignore the input that was active when it was armed until it goes away. Three seconds later it will monitor that input normally. For example, if your car has interior light exit delay, and you arm the system before the interior light goes out, you may get bypass notification. Once the light goes out, however, the doors are monitored normally. disarming diagnostics Extra disarm chirps are the tamper alert. [. . . ] Integrated LED/Valet® Switch: A small push-button switch with an integrated LED mounted somewhere in the vehicle. The switch is used to override the alarm when a transmitter is lost or damaged, or to put it into Valet® Mode. The LED indicates the status of your system. It is also used to report triggers and faults in the system or sensors. [. . . ]
