Valet Mode prevents the system from remote starting and disablesall alarm functions. IMPORTANT: While in Valet mode the remote will still control power lock and unlock systems. The parking lights will not flash.The system can be put into valet one of three ways:1. Turn the vehicle’s key to the ignition “on” position and tap buttons (I + III) simultaneously for 0.5 second. The parking lights will flash once andthe LCD will display Z’s above the vehicle image to confirm the system is in valet mode. Repeat this process to take the system out of valet mode.The parking lights will flash twice and Z’s will disappear to confirm the system is out of valet mode.2. If you do not have your remote control, you can put the system into valet by turning the ignition key “on” and then “off” five times within 7 seconds. Theparking lights will flash once to confirm the system is in valet mode. Shortly after the first flash, the parking lights will flash twice. A remote control is required totake the system out of valet mode. 3. If your system is set up for a secure valet option (optional), you will not be able to put the system into valet until the proper code has been entered to thesecure valet switch. The secure valet switch is the small button with bright blue LED on the front and if installed is the only way to override the alarm and/orremote start. Until programmed, the default code is (3, 3).v@m
7 By Firstech, LLCBy Firstech, LLC 6Quick ReferenceThe only regular maintenance this system requires is remote control battery replacement. No programming is required when replacing the battery. Two Way Remotes:First, release the battery cover lock located on the back of the remote. Once the lock is released, gently slide the battery cover off to expose the battery. With theexception of the 2WSSR-PRO (Uses 1 AA battery) all Firstech 2 Way remotes require one AAA battery.IMPORTANT: Be sure to observe correct polarity when installing the battery.One Way Remotes: First, remove the small Phillips screw located on the back of the remote. Once the screw has been removed, gently pull the remote apart taking care to not damagethe circuit board. 1 Way remote batteries differ among the models. Your battery size should be listed on the battery. Replacements can be purchased from yourlocal Firstech dealer or an electronics store.r@mMb@rSTEP 1: Enter remote programming mode by holding down buttons (II + III) for 2.5 seconds.

17 By Firstech, LLCBy Firstech, LLC 16General System Functions General System FunctionsThe remote transmitter functions have been predetermined and programmed from the factory. The four button configuration allows for many functions to beperformed through a series of tapping, holding and / or multiple presses of buttons. Sending CommandsWhen in range, and a command has been sent, the remote pager backlight will illuminate, the remote will beep and the appropriate icon will be displayed. Forexample, to send a remote start command from the pager, hold down button (II) for 2.5 seconds. The backlight will illuminate and the remote will beep once toconfirm the command has been sent and that the remote is in range. Once the vehicle has successfully remote started, the remote will receive a commandindicating the vehicle is running.Receiving CommandsThe remote pager will receive commands indicating the status of the vehicle, confirmation of sending commands and alarm notifications. For example, aftersending the lock command, the pager will be updated with the lock icon to confirm the vehicle has been successfully locked/armed. To see if your pager is inrange, tap button (IV) for half second - if the pager backlight illuminates and beeps, the pager is in range.Tap button (I) for 0.5 seconds to lock/arm and unlock/disarm. If your vehicle is locked, tap button (I) to unlock; if your vehicle is unlocked, tapbutton (I) to lock. If equipped this will also activate your starter kill and anti grind feature. You will not be able to start your vehicle with the keyuntil unlock/disarm.IMPORTANT: If the alarm has been triggered (Siren is going off), you must wait until the remote pager has been paged before disarming the alarm - the firstbutton tap will shut off the alarm and the second will unlock/disarm the system. a@l@O@a@@u@O@dThe system can be configured to passively lock and arm the vehicle.
