What is a valet key primarily used for in a vehicle?

To operate all locks including storage compartments
To provide limited access to a vehicle's features
To disable the vehicle's anti-theft system
To operate only the primary lock

The correct answer is: To provide limited access to a vehicle's features

A valet key is primarily designed to provide limited access to a vehicle's features, allowing a valet driver or service attendant to operate the vehicle without having full access to all areas. This key typically unlocks the doors and starts the engine but restricts entry to certain compartments, like the trunk or glove box, where more personal items or valuables may be stored. This design allows vehicle owners to hand over their car with a peace of mind that their private belongings are secure while still giving the valet necessary access to park and retrieve the vehicle. The other choices reflect different functions or capabilities that a valet key does not possess, such as operating all locks or disabling anti-theft systems, which are not part of its intended limited access function.
