Car Alarms/1999 CRV Valet Button Operation

Question
Hi there just purchased a 1999 crv from a private sale and forgot to ask about the alarm operation.  I was given only one fob so I purchased two more aftermarket but they don't work with the alarm so I set it off last night.  I read on the Internet there is a "valet" button under the left side of my steering column.  I understand if I put the car into valet mode I can then use my aftermarket fobs without setting off the alarm, is this correct?

Also how do I put the car into valet mode, do I turn the ignition to one before starting it and then push the valet button?

If I set the alarm off with the new fobs somehow do I put the car into valet mode to shut the alarm off (last time I pulled the battery cable but I still needed the original fob to disable the alarm), if this does not work is there a way to shut the alarm off if I set it off and I don't have the original fob?

Thanks in advance!

Sorry, I do not provide or, assist
in the programming of remotes here
at my ALLEXPERTS site,

To get the programming information
and directions to program or use valet switches
for your system, go to www.REMOTES4SALE.com
and look near the page bottom for your system's
manufacturer.

You can also get replacement remote
transmitters there as well.

Good hunting.
