How to Use a Car Keyless Entry System?

[DiHeidi]

"Car keyless system" is not a traditional key, but a smart key or smart card. The method of using a car keyless entry system is as follows: 1. Generally, vehicles equipped with a keyless entry system have a sensor button on the door handle, as well as a keyhole, in case the smart card is damaged or runs out of power, allowing the door to be opened in the conventional way. 2. When entering the car, the detection system inside the vehicle will immediately recognize the smart card. After confirmation, the car's computer will enter the working state. You only need to gently press the start button (or turn the knob) inside the car to start the vehicle normally.

We had this feature installed in our car last month, and it's actually very simple to use. For example, when locking the car, just lightly touch the small groove on the door handle with your finger, and you'll hear a beep to confirm it's locked. Opening the door is even easier—just reach inside the handle and grip it, and the system will automatically unlock if it senses the key within 1 meter. If the key battery dies, you can press the small button on the door handle for an emergency start. When shopping at the supermarket, just bump the door with your elbow while holding your items, and you're done—it's ten times more convenient than digging through your bag for keys. Just remember not to leave the spare key in the car; a friend of mine once had a funny incident with the auto-lock feature.

I've seen many car owners damage their vehicles at repair shops, mainly due to improper operation. The correct method is to keep your finger on the door handle's sensor area for at least 0.5 seconds—don't pull away like you've been shocked. The most stable place to keep your key is in your pants pocket; avoid putting it in your wallet where metal cards can cause interference. Here's a lesser-known tip: if the key is away from the vehicle for more than 2 minutes, it automatically enters sleep mode, and you'll need to press a button on the key to reactivate it. When looking for your car in a parking lot, simply press the trunk button—the lights will flash and the horn will sound, which is more intuitive than using phone GPS. Operating with wet hands in the rain may fail, so dry your hands before trying again.

Subway commuters tested that placing the commuter bag in the outermost compartment works fine. The actual sensing range is effective within 1.5 meters on the side of the car and about 0.8 meters at the rear. For weekend fishing trips, using a waterproof key case showed no issues even after being submerged for half an hour. After locking the car, I always habitually pull the door handle before leaving, just to make sure it's locked. Once I forgot to close the sunroof, but holding the lock button for 3 seconds automatically closed it—a real lifesaver. Just remember not to place it near an induction cooker, as it can indeed interfere with the signal.
