Trunk Access While The System Is Armed; Valet Mode - Directed Electronics Automate 417 Owner's Manual

Trunk Access While the System Is Armed

Trunk access with your transmitter:
While the system is armed, you can open the trunk by pressing the
trunk release button on your transmitter without triggering the
alarm. Only the trunk sensors are bypassed while the rest of the
security system remains armed. Normal trunk monitoring will
resume 5 seconds after the trunk has been closed.
Trunk access with your key:
If the system is programmed for Level I security (see Glossary
section of this manual for a description of Level I security), you
may also open the trunk with your vehicle key while the system is
armed, without triggering the alarm. Normal trunk monitoring will
resume 5 seconds after the trunk has been closed. Consult with
your installer to determine if your vehicle has been programmed for
Level I security.
NOTE: This feature is not available for Buick LeSabres, Oldsmobile
Auroras, Pontiac Bonnevilles and Jeep Grand Cherokees. The alarm will
trigger if you open the trunk of one of these vehicles with the key while
the system is armed.

Valet Mode

Valet Mode is a feature that prevents your security system from
arming or triggering either automatically or with your factory
keyless entry transmitter. In Valet Mode, the security system will
not arm, even with the remote transmitter, but all convenience
functions, such as door locks, trunk release, etc., will function nor-
mally. Valet Mode is useful when washing or servicing your vehicle.
