valet key
Restricted vehicle key
A valet key is a car key with limited functionality, designed to be given to parking attendants or valets.
It typically starts the engine and unlocks the doors but cannot open the trunk or glove compartment, allowing owners to secure valuables while someone else parks the car: I always use the valet key when I leave my car with the hotel staff.
