Valet ModeValet Mode

When servicing or loaning your vehicle to others, your remote start system should be placed in Valet mode. Valet mode prevents the system from remote starting and disables all alarm functions. IMPORTANT: While in Valet mode the remote start will still lock and unlock power lock systems.

The system can be put into valet one of two ways;

1. Turn the vehicles key to the ignition “on” position and hold the Lock and Trunk buttons simultaneously for 2.5 seconds. The parking lights will flash once to confirm the system is in valet mode. Repeat this process to take the system out of valet mode. Upon tapping the same buttons again the parking lights will flash twice to confirm the system is out of valet mode.
2. You can put the system into valet by turning the ignition key “on” and then “off” five times within 7 seconds. The parking lights will flash once to confirm the system is in valet mode. Shortly after the first flash, the parking lights will flash twice.

Remote Maintenance – Battery Replacement

The only regular maintenance this system requires is remote control battery replacement. No programming is required when replacing the battery.

One-Way Remote: CS-600

First, remove the small Phillips screw located on the back of the remote. Once the screw has been removed, gently pull the remote apart being careful to not touch the circuit board. The CS-600 requires one A23 battery. These specialty batteries can be purchased from your local Firstech dealer or an electronics store.
