The system prevents engine start and cannot be bypassed because no RF signals are emitted from the device. This makes it difficult to be detected by sophisticated scanning and RF techniques that are used by modern thieves.

The PIN code is able to be changed to lock out previous drivers, or even add an override code in case you forget the sequence. During installation, the installer will demonstrate how to do this. The system also has the option of a valet mode that can be used to temporarily disable the pin input sequence so that your mechanic or garage can repair the vehicle without needing to know the code.
