The valet key fits only the ignition switch and door
locks. You can keep the trunk and glove box locked
when you leave your vehicle and valet key at a parking
facility.
NOTE
If the key is attached to a keyholder or to a large
bunch of other keys, centrifugal force may act on
it as the vehicle moves, resulting in unwanted
turning of the ignition switch. Also, if a large key-
holder is attached to the key, your knees or hands
may accidentally touch it in a way that turns the ig-
nition switch.
