Silent Mode; Panic Mode; Valet Mode - Directed Electronics Automate 553 Owner's Manual

Silent Mode

Use the Silent Mode to temporarily turn off the arm or disarm con-
firmation chirps by briefly pressing
disarming the security system. The confirmation chirp(s) will then
be eliminated for that one operation only. To permanently turn off
the arm and disarm confirmation chirps, contact your installation
dealer.
NOTE: The Warn Away
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.

Panic Mode

If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can attract
attention by triggering the system with your transmitter! Just
press and hold
The siren will sound and the parking lights will flash for 30 sec-
onds. To stop Panic Mode at any time, press
mitter again.

Valet Mode

Valet ® Mode prevents your security system from arming and trig-
gering either automatically or when using the remote transmitter.
In Valet ® Mode, all convenience functions (door locks, trunk
release, etc.) remain operational. This feature is useful when
washing or servicing your vehicle.
