You can design the PIN as long as 20 presses long to ensure maximum security and an emergency code that is secure is included too.

This then sends a message to the vehicle, which disables the ignition, engine and shuts off crucial components such as the starter motor as well as the fuel pump. The system also offers the option of a "valet mode" that allows you to turn off the system and stop your car from being driven by valets or service centre personnel without the correct keys.

This makes it nearly impossible for thieves to hear that distinctive clicking sound that traditional immobilisers relays make.
