Once you setup the Valet mode it will start recording when the car is started. It also locks the glove box and I believe the rear hatch.

It also locks the trunk in a convertible. I also believe that I read a Forum Post that the Dealer has a work around.

Well, if dealers have a work around, then I would also note the mileage at drop off and then check it when you pick it up.
