<p>A vehicle access system includes a passive signaling device that provides an authorization signal without requiring any manual activation by the user. The system controller performs a plurality of functions provided that a proper or valid authorization code is received from the passive signaling device. The system operates in a second mode where a reduced number of vehicle access functions are permitted. The second mode of operation is referred to as a valet mode. The invention includes a variety of ways to set the system to work in the valet mode whenever control of the vehicle is surrendered to a valen parking attendant or mechanic, for example.</p> |
