Alarm Override Procedures
Valet Alarm OverrideThe Valet Override procedure will disable the alarm when the remote is not available or has become inoperative. If the vehicle door is opened without disarming, the alarm will sound and the vehicle will not start when attempting to start with the key. To disable the alarm:
- Turn the vehicle ignition to ON.
- Within five (5) seconds, press and release the valet button on the Antenna one (1) time.
The alarm will silence and the vehicle will now start normally with the key.Custom Code OverrideUnlike the default Valet Override, Custom Code Override is a user personalized code that offers a higher level of security. If the user chooses to use Custom Code Override, Feature Bank 2; Feature 9 must be programmed for “Custom Code”. Once the option has been selected the code must be programmed. Once the Custom Code is programmed it cannot be changed without first disarming the alarm.Custom Code Override ProcedureThe Custom Code is made up of 2 numbers. Each chosen number must be between digits 1-9. The default Custom Code is “11”. To disarm the alarm using the Custom Code option:
- Turn the vehicle ignition to ON.
- Within five (5) seconds, Press the valet button one (1) time.
- Within five (5) seconds, Turn the ignition OFF/ON.
- Within five (5) seconds, Press the valet button one (1) time.
- Turn the vehicle ignition to OFF then ON to start the vehicle.
Custom Code Programming ProcedureIn this example, the user has selected Custom Code “23”. To program a user-selected custom code starts with the alarm disarmed:
- Turn the ignition to the ON position
- Within ten (10) seconds, press the valet button three (3) times to enter programming.
- Within ten (10) seconds, Cycle the ignition OFF/ON, OFF/ON, OFF/ON. The system will beep one (1) time.
- Within ten (10) seconds, Press the valet button two (2) times. This number will indicate the first digit of the chosen Custom Code.
- Within ten (10) seconds, Cycle the ignition OFF/ON.
- Within ten (10) seconds, Press the valet button three (3) times. This number will indicate the second digit of the chosen Custom Code.
- Cycle the ignition OFF.
If the Custom Code was accepted the LED will flash the first number (2), pause, then the second number (3). This will repeat two (2) more times to confirm the Custom Code entry. If after 15sec the LED does not flash please repeat steps 1-7.Stand Alone OverrideStand Alone Valet Override is an option available to override the alarm without the use of the valet button. This requires Feature Bank 2, Feature 9 to be programmed for “Stand Alone Valet”. Once programmed, disarm the alarm without the use of the remote or valet button:
- Within five (5) seconds, Cycle the ignition ON, OFF, ON.
- Within five (5) seconds, press the brake pedal three (3) times
