What Does Keyless Entry System Mean?
2 Answers
Keyless entry system means that vehicles equipped with this system will automatically unlock the doors and deactivate the anti-theft alarm when the key fob approaches the vehicle body. The following are the functions of a keyless entry system: Auto-lock Function: When the key fob moves 3-5 meters away from the vehicle body, the doors will automatically lock and the anti-theft alarm will be activated. At this time, the turn signal will flash once and the horn will sound a short beep. Wireless Remote Control Function: Includes remote locking, remote unlocking, and vehicle locating function. Anti-theft Alarm Function: Once the anti-theft system is triggered, it must cut off the starting circuit and fuel supply, which can only be restored after the anti-theft system is deactivated.
As a tech enthusiast, I can't go back after experiencing the keyless entry system! It essentially upgrades the traditional mechanical key to a smart proximity key. With the key in your pocket or bag, simply grasp the door handle as you approach the car, and it automatically unlocks. The principle relies on sensors on the vehicle body communicating with the chip inside the key. The most convenient part is not even needing to take out the key to lock - just touch the indentation on the door handle with the back of your hand. This feature is a lifesaver when carrying items in the rain, eliminating the need to rummage for keys. However, the system fails when the key battery dies, so I make it a habit to replace the battery every two years.
