''Towing Detection'' feature helps to inform the driver about unexpected car movement when it was parked. {{{model|FMB1YX}}} generates an event when a car is being towed or lifted, for example, in a case of vehicle evacuation. {{{model|FMB1YX}}} activates the towing function when the following conditions are met:

#Ignition (configured Ignition Source) is OFF.

#Ignition (configured Ignition Source) is OFF.

#''Activation Timeout'' is reached.

#''Activation Timeout'' is reached.

When towing function is engaged {{{model|FMB1YX}}} monitors accelerometer data. If acceleration ''Threshold'' or ''Angle'' reach configured values for a configured ''Duration'', and Ignition is still OFF for a period of time that is longer than ''Event Timeout'', then an event is generated. When configured, ''Make Call To'' and ''Send SMS To'' functions make a call or send an SMS to a predefined phone number. Towing function will be reactivated after {{{model|FMB1YX}}} detects a change of Ignition state from ON to OFF or if the confgured ''Activation Timeout'' is reached again.
