Kia Picanto Spare Key The key fob allows you to unlock your Picanto and start it. The key is equipped with a security chip in it that blocks the standard immobiliser. The key fob is convenient to lock and unlock your car, whether you're shopping at the supermarket with full hands, or running your daily errands. It is, however, able to cease to function for a variety of reasons. Transponder Key Modern technology has enabled us to enjoy a variety of benefits in our cars. One of these advantages is the appearance of transponder keys that allow you to start your car with an ignition key that has an RFID chip. This chip sends an alert to the immobilizer to let it know that you've got the correct key to operate your vehicle. It also assists in reducing the risk of the possibility of theft from your vehicle. It is more difficult to duplicate this type of key, however it isn't impossible. If you're looking to replace a transponder key, contact an automotive locksmith. The first thing you should do before calling locksmiths is to ensure that you have all the information for your vehicle. This includes the VIN, model, year and the trim (options). This will help them locate the correct key for your vehicle quickly. It can also save you money. A transponder is more expensive than a key made of metal, but not nearly as much as an entirely new ignition. A key fob equipped with chip security is more secure than a metal key. It is more difficult to copy and even more difficult to hot-wire. The chip inside the key fob communicates with the computer in your vehicle. This lets it know that you have the correct keys and authorize it to start. This is a great way to feel safe regarding the security of your car. Keyless Entry System Many vehicles come with keyless entry option. This system makes use of radio signals instead of traditional keys that require drivers to insert the keys into the lock, turn them over and then take them out. If the car senses that the key fob is within the range, it will either unlock the vehicle and start the engine. Some systems also allow the driver to open the trunk and windows by pushing a button on the key fob. Utilizing a keyless lock can be more convenient, especially in cold weather, because it avoids having to insert the key into the lock, and could protect the car's lock mechanism due to dirt or ice. However it is essential to remember that the system that is keyless will not work in the event of a power failure or if the battery fails. Therefore, it is suggested to keep an emergency key in the glove box of the vehicle. Another benefit of a keyless system is that it offers more security than a conventional key. Certain systems, like, will automatically secure the car when the driver gets away, and shut the engine down if the driver does not remember. These features are particularly helpful in the event that the vehicle is in an area that has high rates of crime or the owner is worried about putting valuables in the car. Keyless Start System With an ignition system that is keyless, you can start and unlock your vehicle without the use of the mechanical key. It utilizes a transponder inside your smart fob to send an ID code that is authenticated by the vehicle's anti-theft system. If the smart fob is within proximity of the vehicle, it transmits a signal to the car's antennas. These triggers the engine exactly as if you stuck a key into the ignition. These systems are becoming more widespread in both domestic and imported vehicles. A single button can start the engine and activate other electrical devices like radio. You can even switch on the air conditioning by pressing a button. A second time will shut off the vehicle's electrical features, pressing the button once more with your foot on the brake will stop the engine. However some drivers forget to put the vehicle in “park” before exiting, and this has caused some injuries. Fortunately, most systems have protections against this issue. Some systems require you to flip a switch or rotate it prior to pressing the start button. Other systems run pre-start checks to ensure that the car is in Park and that your foot is properly on the brake. Other safety tips include reading the owner's manual, adhering to basic safety guidelines and watching the NHTSA's video on keyless ignition systems. Remote Control The Remote Control System that comes with your Kia makes life easier by allowing you to lock and unlock the vehicle at any time anytime, anyplace. This is accomplished by two sensors that are located within your Kia key fob that communicate with your vehicle's standard immobiliser, which are within the engine control unit (ECU). When you press a button on your key fob it sends data to a generation 103 to indicate that a select key was activated. The data generator 103 generates trigger data indicating the function you have selected and then transmits it via the transmitter 104. The Key Lab modifies infrared lights using the trigger data and transmits it to the remote control interface 109. The remote control interface 109 has a receiver 110 that takes infrared light signals that have been modulated and demodulates them so that it can recover the control codes within the carrier wave. The remote control interface 109 sends the control code to the electronic device that activates the desired function in accordance with the control code. The battery in your Kia smart key or remote key fob can last for many years, but it will eventually have to be replaced. You can replace the battery by yourself using an instrument that is thin enough to pull off the cover. Then you can replace it with a fresh one (CR2032). If you aren't sure which battery to choose make sure you contact an authorized Kia service partner or dealer. If you decide to replace the battery, be sure to dispose of it in accordance with local regulations.
