STEP 6. TEST YOUR DEVICE
When the system is Online you start testing the unit from the vehicle control panel. Test all the application

can “Release” the vehicle. There are 2x different method to release it to the new owner. Choosing “release”
will simply remove it from your account and make it “Ready for Customer Delivery”. Choosing “transfer”

Also make sure that the MyCar Owners Card is handed to the New Owner of the vehicle. Doing this will
ensure that the instructions on how to setup their App, Account and Vehicle is done correctly by using the
device serial number located on the sticker affixed by the installer at the time of installation.
