SWITCH_____________________________
Use the Silent Mode to temporarily turn off the arming or disarm-
ing confirmation chirps by briefly pressing
before either arm-
ing or disarming the security system. The confirmation chirp(s) will
then be eliminated for that one operation only. To permanently
turn off the confirmation chirps, contact your installation dealer.
NOTE: The Warn Away
®
Response to lighter impacts is bypassed if the sys-
tem is armed using the Silent Mode. This ensures that the siren does not
chirp in an environment where you don't want chirps to be emitted. The
system is still capable of being triggered by heavier impacts; only the
Warn Away
®
Response generated by light impacts is bypassed.
If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can attract
attention by triggering the system with your transmitter! Just
press
for 1 second, and you will enter Panic Mode. The siren
will sound and the parking lights will flash for 30 seconds. To stop
Panic Mode at any time, press
on the transmitter again.
Valet
®
Mode prevents your system from arming and triggering either
automatically or when using the remote. In Valet
®
Mode, all conve-
nience functions (door locks, trunk release, etc.) remain operational.
This feature is useful when washing or servicing your vehicle.
