User's Manual

The LoJack Stolen Vehicle Recovery System uses a small transmitter that’s hidden in your vehicle. After police
enter a stolen vehicle report in the Statewide Law Enforcement computer system, LoJack is activated and
begins to send a signal that police can track using LoJack Police Tracking Computers to recover your stolen vehicle.
1. After you report your stolen vehicle to police, a signal from a radio tower activates the LoJack in your vehicle.
2. The LoJack unit emits a uniquely coded signal.
3. The Police Tracking Computer receives the coded signals coming from your vehicle. Those signals
quickly pinpoint the vehicle’s location and lead police to a rapid recovery – usually within 24 hours and
often within a few hours.
