To set up and activate the GPS tracker on your vehicle, please follow these steps:

1. Install the tracker: The tracker has a built-in magnet, so you can easily attach it to a metal surface in your vehicle, such as under the seat or in the trunk. Make sure the tracker is securely attached.

2. Insert the SIM card: Open the waterproof sealant on the tracker and insert a GSM SIM card. The SIM card should be GSM network compatible and have incoming call display enabled. Make sure the SIM card is properly inserted and the PIN code is locked.

3. Power on the tracker: Switch the ON/OFF button to the ON position. The three LEDs on the tracker will flash once, indicating that the tracker has been switched on.

4. Initialize the tracker: Send an SMS "begin+password" to the tracker. The default password is 123456. For example, send SMS "begin123456" to the tracker. It will reply "begin ok" and return to the default factory settings.

5. Change the password (optional): To change the password, send an SMS "password+old password+space+new password" to the tracker. For example, send SMS "password123456 888888" to the tracker. It will reply "password OK", indicating that the password has been changed successfully.

6. Set up authorized numbers: You can authorize up to 5 phone numbers to track and receive alarms from the tracker. To add an authorized number, send an SMS "admin+password+space+cell phone number" to the tracker. For example, send SMS "admin123456 1234567890" to set up the number 1234567890 as an authorized number. The tracker will reply "admin OK" after the command is executed.

7. Set up tracking and monitoring: You can track and monitor the tracker remotely through SMS or internet. To track the tracker's location, send an SMS "tracker+password" to the tracker. It will reply "tracker ok!" and switch to tracking mode. To monitor the tracker's surroundings, send an SMS "monitor+password" to the tracker. It will reply "monitor ok!" and switch to monitoring mode.

8. Set up other functions: The tracker has various functions such as movement alarm, geo-fence alarm, shock sensor alarm, and more. You can refer to the user manual for detailed instructions on how to set up and customize these functions.

Note: It is important to read the user manual provided with the tracker for complete instructions and guidelines on usage and troubleshooting.
