A personalised PIN is created using buttons on the steering wheel and dash. The system stops engine start and can't be bypassed because no RF signals are emitted from the device. This makes it undetectable by sophisticated scanning or code grabbing technology that modern thieves employ.

The PIN code is able to be changed to block previous drivers, or even add an override code if you forget the sequence. When installing the installer will show how to accomplish this. The system includes a valet mode feature that can be used to temporarily disable pin input sequences so that the mechanic or garage can service the vehicle without having to know the code.
