  • 01

    Install the "TRACKTING" app

    Sign up and follow the instructions in the App.

    PLEASE NOTE
    Even if you're registered on the website, you must create an account on the app: these are two separate accounts.

  • 02

    Charge the tracker

    Connect the Tracker (black device) to a charger using the supplied USB-C cable.

    The Tracker's LED will start flashing red. Wait until it turns solid green: charging complete.

    ———

    Good to know

    The Tag (red key fob) in the box already has a battery inside and is already paired with your Tracker: you don't need to do anything.

  • 03

    Pair the tracker

    Open the App, tap Add device (the + button at the top), allow the App to use the camera and frame the QR Code printed on the card you find inside the box.

  • 04

    Run the first location update

    • Take the Tracker and Tag to an outdoor spot with a clear view of the sky.
    • Shake the Tracker for 5 seconds, then place it on a flat surface.
    • Now move at least 30 metres away with the Tag.
    • Within 5 minutes, you'll receive a notification on the App where you can see the location on the map

    Great! You've completed your first location fix!

    Can't see the location on the map? Repeat the procedure or contact Customer Support.

  • 05

    Place the tracker on your vehicle

    Hide the Tracker on your vehicle and remember to always carry the Tag with you.

    A few useful tips:

    • For optimal GPS signal reception, the Tracker's label must face downwards.
    • NEVER leave the device connected to the charger: in this state the device will not trigger an alarm.
    • Never hide it inside closed metal compartments that can shield the signal.
    • In a car: avoid placing it in the doors, as they can vibrate and generate false alarms.
    • On a motorcycle or scooter: if you place it in the under-seat compartment, you must secure it with the supplied double-sided tape to avoid vibrations.
    • From the App you can adjust the vibration sensitivity for the Tracker's accelerometer

    NOTES:

    The Tracker can be secured using the automotive double-sided tape provided in the box.

    • For optimal adhesion, install the device on clean, dry surfaces that are not exposed to direct heat.
    • We recommend that you do not install the device in areas subject to high temperatures, such as near exhaust pipes, engines or parts that generate intense heat. Prolonged high temperatures can in fact reduce the effectiveness of the double-sided tape over time.
    • periodically check the condition of the adhesive and, if necessary, replace it with an equivalent tape.

  • Verify your phone number and save Trackting Alarm numbers

    Trackting SMART is a comprehensive and intelligent system: to fully understand it and get the most out of it, we recommend reading this simple guide.

    New! You can adjust the vibration sensitivity
    Adjust the sensitivity based on your vehicle type and your needs.
    Remember: if the sensitivity is set too high, the alarm might go off due to external vibrations (such as passing trucks).


    Verify Your Phone Number and Save the Alarm Numbers


    Make sure you’ve registered your cell phone number in the app and save the following numbers in your contacts as “Trackting Alarm”:

    • +1 830 444 4666
    • +39 0721 176 0423
    • +31 970 102 40666
    • +44 7418 372710

    Set your phone so that “Trackting Alarm” can reach you even in silent or “Do Not Disturb” mode.


    When you receive an alarm call, you must never answer it (you must reject the call) because:

    • This way, it won’t count toward your monthly call allowance (otherwise, you’re limited to a maximum of 5 calls).
    • It’s an automated system, not an operator, and is only meant to alert you in the event of an alarm.

    If, on the other hand, you answer or have voicemail enabled, the call will be counted toward your monthly limit of 5 calls.
    Notifications, however, remain unlimited.


    Good to Know

    With some phone carriers, voicemail activates automatically even if you reject the call or don’t answer. In this case, one of your 5 monthly calls would be used. To turn off voicemail, follow the guide here.

  • Did you also purchase an additional Tag?

    The tag included in the Trackting SMART package is already paired with your tracker: no further action is required.

    If you have purchased an additional tag, in addition to the one you already have, the new tag must be paired with the tracker by following the instructions described here.


    NOTE

    With  Trackting ONE, you can pair up to 3 tags with the same tracker.

    The ONE Tag can only be paired with and communicate with one Tracker at a time.
