Product descriPtion
Skybrake DD5 belongs to the smallest high security level vehicle protection systems. It can
be customized for each user’s individual needs using individual settings. The system con-
sists of several wireless modules: the Main Module and two Personal Transceivers. The Main
Module is installed in a hidden location in the vehicle. Due to the Main Module’s compact
size, it is difficult to locate, so that criminals cannot remove it and steal the vehicle. There are
two Personal Transceivers in each kit. One of them needs to be used while driving, so it is
recommended to keep it in your pocket or wallet. The second Personal Transceiver is meant
for backup use only in case the first one gets lost or damaged.
How it works
Each time the ignition is turned on, the Skybrake DD5 Main Module waits for an authori-
zation request from its Personal Transceiver. It is a wireless data exchange procedure by
which the Main Module checks the presence of the Personal Transceiver. If authorization
fails, driving is not allowed. The system warns the driver by audio signals and the engine is
stopped within several seconds or immediately if motion has been detected. If authoriza-
tion is successful, driving is allowed. The system behaviour in different situations depends
on its equipment level and settings and is described in detail later in this manual.
skybrake dd5 equiPment levels
Skybrake DD5 comes in three equipment levels:
520100 – the basic version of Skybrake DD5 system. It includes two Personal Transceivers,
one Main Module and an audio warning device and features custom settings.
520200 – the highest security level offered by Skybrake DD5. This version includes two Per-
sonal Transceivers, two Main Modules and an audio warning device and features custom
settings. Maximum security is achieved by using two Main Modules as it is double difficult
to find and remove them both.
521100 – a high security level Skybrake DD5 system. It includes two Personal Transceivers,
one Main Module with a built-in motion detector and an audio warning device and features
custom settings. Due to the motion detector the engine can be started without presence of
the Personal Transceiver. The engine will not be stopped while the car is not moved, but will
be stopped if movement is detected without Personal Transceiver within range. This option
is good for cold winters or hot summers as it allows the driver to leave the car with heating/
cooling on without Personal Transceiver within range.
additional features
All Skybrake DD5 systems have additional features which are described below.
emergency Pin code
If the Personal Transceiver is lost or damaged and you need to drive your car, it is possible
to disable the Skybrake DD5 system using the emergency PIN code. Please note that the
system can be disabled for one drive only, the next time you start the engine you will have
to repeat the disabling procedure. Please read the section “entering emergency Pin code”
later in this document.
anti-HiJack function
The Anti-HiJack function controls the presence of the Personal Transceiver during the driv-
ing time. If the Personal Transceiver gets lost while driving, the system will emit special au-
dio warning signals and the engine will be stopped after 140 seconds. This function is used
for stopping the engine in case of hijacking while the engine is running, for example, when
stopped at red traffic light. Please note that using the Anti-HiJack function is prohibited in
the Russian Federation and the EU.
low battery warning
Each Personal Transceiver is supplied with a CR2430 battery which has to be replaced when
it gets low. You will be warned about it each time you switch the ignition ON.
using skybrake dd5
starting the engine with Personal transceiver within range
for products 520100 and 520200. The system allows to start the engine and drive without
any delay.
for product 521100. The system allows to start the engine, while driving is only allowed
after authorization, otherwise the engine is stopped when the car is set in motion. If autho-
rization is successful, the system emits a double beep after which you can start to drive.
starting tHe engine witHout Personal transceiver witHin
range
for products 520100 and 520200. If you start the engine without the Personal Transceiver
within range (for example, you have forgotten it), after 20 seconds the system will start
to emit warning signals and after the next 10 seconds the engine will be stopped. From
this moment on you need to use Personal Transceiver or emergency PIN code to start the
engine again.
for product 521100. You are allowed to start the engine without the Personal Transceiver
8 times. After 8 cycles you need to use the Personal Transceiver or emergency PIN code to
start the engine again. Please note that you can only start the engine: if you try to drive the
car without the Personal Transceiver, it will be stopped. This function allows you to warm
up/cool down the car, but not to drive.
finisHing driving, leaving tHe car
Switch off the engine. Before leaving the car, please ensure that you have not left the Per-
sonal Transceiver in it. Leaving the Personal Transceiver in the car decreases security and
enables car theft.
leaving tHe car witH engine running
for products 520100 and 520200. The Personal Transceiver’s range is approximately 5 me-
ters. If Anti-HiJack function is enabled and you want to leave your car with engine running
(for example, for opening a gate), please ensure that the Personal Transceiver isn’t left in the
car as it enables hijacking. If you move more than 5 meters away from the car, the engine
will be stopped after 140 seconds. Please read more about Anti-Hijack function later in this
document.
for product 521100. Please ensure that the Personal Transceiver isn’t left in the car as it
enables hijacking. You can leave your car for as long as you like, the engine will continue
running until motion is detected.
leaving tHe car in a worksHoP
If you need to leave your car in a workshop, it is not recommended to give your Personal
Transceiver to a third party. We recommend hiding it inside the car, for example, in the glove
box. Don’t leave the Personal Transceiver inside the car after you get it back from the work-
shop and always carry it with you.
activating anti-HiJack function
If the Anti-HiJack function is enabled, it will become active 20 seconds after the car with
the Main Module leaves the Personal Transceiver’s range. The Anti-HiJack function consists
of several steps:
initial warning signals. Initial audio warning signals inform the driver about the absence
of the Personal Transceiver from range. Long audio signals are emitted; the engine will not
be stopped at this moment. Please note that the default duration of initial warning signals is
60 seconds, after which the system proceeds to the next step. If you hear the initial warning
signals, it is recommended to find an appropriate place and stop the car. Please verify the
presence of your Personal Transceiver and, if necessary, replace the battery.
final warning signals. Final audio warning signals inform the driver about the absence of
the Personal Transceiver from range. Short warning signals are emitted; the engine will not
be stopped yet, however, you will have only 60 seconds left (default setting) before the sys-
tem proceeds to the next step, which is engine disable. If you hear the final warning signals,
it is strongly recommended to find and appropriate place and stop the car. Please verify the
presence of your Personal Transceiver and, if necessary, replace the battery.
engine disable. This is the last step of Anti-Hijacking, however, it differs for different Sky-
brake DD5 product types:
for products 520100 and 520200. These products are not equipped with a motion detec-
tor, so the engine will be disable as soon as the system proceeds to this step.
for product 521100. This product is equipped with a motion detector, which will allow
you to drive the car until you stop it yourself. If you try to start to drive again, the system
will disable the engine.
warning!
It is dangerous to continue driving with the Anti-HiJack function activated as
this can lead to unexpected engine disable, causing a road traffic accident.
