Have you downloaded the client?
If not, go to the main page and under the support tab is a download link.
Del Taco doesn't give you free trial time. It's only an unlock code for the Type 8 Shuttle Craft. If you want a free trial, you need to find a buddy that is already signed up and playing, and that can give you a "5 day Buddy Code". Otherwise, pony up the money and buy the game. That Del Taco code won't give you play time, nor is it advertised as such.

Actually, according to the promo you can get up to 10 days of free play time with the Del Taco codes but you can't get the shuttle until you buy the game..
On the main page should be a button to enter your key. Make sure you're logged in, and click that button. Once you've entered your trial key, you should be able to log into the game using the client you've already downloaded.

There were four Del Taco shuttle codes. Each gave two days of trial time as well as in-game access to the shuttle pet. If you collected all four, you got 10 days of trial time. Good job knowing what you're talking about before opening up your mouth, though.
This is kind of a circular logic argument, so here's more semantics.
You have a free item waiting for you, that's it. You did not buy the game.
How can you use your shuttle if you did not buy the game?
You have free time, but you still need the game to get said time.

No ... the trial time is free trial time, no purchase required. All the person needs to do is register for an account on the site, redeem their key, and download the client.

if you downloaded the client. click on the star trek logo on your desktop. that should open the launcher where you log in. This will take you to the patcher. Once the game is done patching the Icon that says Patching will change to Engage. click that and you will get to the character creator screen.
You have to go to the "My Account" page on the STO site and if you entered the code right you will see an option to activate the free time.
For everyone who THINKS they know what they are talking about you really should actually know something before calling people idots for something they are actually right about.

How does my free Del Taco promotional time work?
Your Del Taco promotional time is more accurately described as free trial time. That is, it grants you access to the Star Trek Online beta test and it allows you to play Star Trek Online for free after the game launches. Even if you do not own or subscribe to Star Trek Online, each code you redeem (up to one per cup type and four total) will grant your account two days of free trial time. If you redeem a unique code from each of the four exclusive Del Taco cup types, you will get 10 days of free trial time. Free trial time will be applied right when you redeem the code. So, if you redeem one code before our game's launch on February 2, 2010, you'll be able to play Star Trek Online for free until February 4, 2010. If, however, you redeem a code on February 4, 2010, you'll be able to play until February 6, 2010. And, if you redeem all four unique codes on February 4, 2010, you'll be able to play until February 14, 2010. All free trial time expires March 15, 2010.

There were four cups, the codes all do the same thing and are not related at all the the type of cup you get, so read that last sentence of yours to yourself.

Did you actually get those keys off a 'Del Taco' cup??? Those keys can only be used once, and are not reusable or transferable...
If those keys were actually entered correctly, then go to your account page, and you should see something like this...
Did anyone else have issues activating the shuttle? I tried right away and it gave me an error saying it could not be redeemed at this time. It tried several times on several days. Not until I got promoted and got a second tier ship would lit let me equip the pet.

My understanding with the promos is that he actually has some free time for entering the key.
The shuttle pet is not available till after you buy the game.
Without buying the game the codes are just for free time.

Are you able to log into the game?
By reading the promo information, you can have up to 10 days of play time with the codes.

I can't access the main page from work, so I can't directly check on this stuff .. but that's where the interwebs says to enter it.
Edit: If that doesn't work, there's a post here from one of the devs asking people to e-mail them keys that aren't working properly: http://forums.startrekonline.com/showthread.php?p=1898939
