Keyless Entry System

When the car is aware that a key fob is within the range of the key, it will open or start the engine. Some systems also allow the driver to open the windows and trunk by pressing an appropriate button on the key fob.

Another benefit of a keyless system is that it provides greater security than a standard key. For instance, certain systems will automatically lock the vehicle if the driver leaves and shut down the engine if the driver does not remember to do so. These functions are especially useful if you have your car located in a crime-prone area or if you're concerned about putting valuables inside the car.

Keyless Start System

Some systems require you to flick a switch or rotate it before pressing the start button. Other systems run pre-start checks to make sure that the car is in Park and your foot is securely on the brake. Other safety tips include reading the owner's manual, following the most basic safety rules and watching NHTSA video on keyless ignition.
