1) Installation
LoJack is a small, silent Radio Transceiver that is hidden in your vehicle by a certified LoJack technician. Once installed, the Unit is automatically registered in the LoJack Database, which interfaces with the National Crime Information Computer (NCIC) system used by federal, state and local law enforcement agencies throughout the country.

2) Notification*
In the event of a theft, you report the incident to the police, who make a routine entry into the state police crime computer, resulting in a match of the LoJack System's unique code against the state VIN database. This process automatically triggers the activation of the LoJack Unit in your vehicle.

3) Activation
Once your theft is reported to police, law enforcement computers send a signal via the LoJack Radio Tower Network to activate the LoJack in vehicle. When activated, the LoJack Unit begins emitting an inaudible signal that can be tracked by police cars and aviation units that are equipped with LoJack Police Tracking Computers.

4) Tracking
The LoJack Police Tracking Computer receives the LoJack Signal and leads the police to your stolen vehicle. Unlike GPS systems, which require line-of-sight access to orbiting satellites, LoJack's patented Radio Frequency Signal can penetrate forest cover, parking garages and many other obstructions, helping ensure the vehicle will be located by police, regardless of where thieves may be hiding it.

5) Recovery
Once your vehicle is tracked and recovered, you will be notified by police. LoJack boasts a better than 90-percent recovery rate nationally, with most recoveries completed within hours.

*Note: If you have the LoJack Early Warning Recovery System, you will be notified
directly via phone, email, and/or pager if your car is moved without your authorization so you can quickly check on your vehicle. if a theft has occured, the LoJack Early Warning Recovery System enables police to track and return your vehicle sooner.
