For example to locate our vehicle in the parking lot, etc. • External power cut We can switch the ignition on or off from the mobile phone. This prevents theft of the vehicle. • History of tours Online storage of device movements in the last 2 months. • OBD2 read lock (Requires additional accessory) From our app, we can lock or unlock OBD2 reading, thus avoiding that they can make a copy of our original key, and have full access to the vehicle. • Movement without power We will receive an alert immediately if our vehicle is moving with the engine off. For example when being towed by a crane, etc. • Vehicle alarm If the vehicle alarm system is activated, a notification will be automatically sent to our mobile phone.
