Keyless Entry System

Many vehicles come with keyless entry option. In contrast to traditional keys, which require the user to insert them into the lock and then turn them, this system sends radio signals to the vehicle. If the car senses that the key fob is in range, it will open the vehicle or start the engine. Certain systems permit the driver to open windows as well as the trunk by pressing the fob's button.

It is easier to use a lock with a keyless mechanism especially in colder weather.

With a keyless ignition system, you can begin and unlock your vehicle without using the mechanical key. It uses a transponder on your smart fob to transmit an ID code that's authenticated by your vehicle's anti-theft system. When the smart key is in close proximity to the vehicle, the transponder emits an indication that triggers the engine, just like the key.

Domestic and imported vehicles are increasingly using these systems. The push button can be used to start the engine and turn on other electrical features such a radio. With a single push the button, you can turn on the air cooling system. A second time will turn off the car's electrical features pressing the button once more using your foot on the brake will stop the engine.

Some require you to flick or rotate a switch before you press the start button, while other systems run pre-start safety checks to make sure that the car is in park and your foot is firmly on the brake. Other safety tips include reading the owner's manual, observing basic safety guidelines and watching an NHTSA video on keyless ignition.

The Remote Control System in your Kia makes life easier by allowing you lock and unlock your vehicle at any time anytime, anyplace. This is done by the use of two sensors within your kia keyless entry keyfob, which communicates with the standard immobiliser system that is in the car located in the engine control module (ECU).

When you press one of the buttons for operation on your key fob it transmits information indicating that the key that you selected was pressed to a data generator 103. The data generator 103 creates trigger data that indicates the function you have selected and transmits it through an electronic transmitter 104. The transmitter 104 alters the infrared beam based on the trigger data, and sends it to remote control interface 109.

The remote control interface 109 consists of an receiver 110 that receives infrared lights that are modulated and demodulates them to recover the control codes contained in the carrier wave. The remote control interface 109 then sends the control code to the electronic device that activates the desired function based on the control code.
