The transmitter with a battery is built into the radio key handle. The receiver is located inside the car. The maximum range is determined by various factors. As the battery discharges, the range decreases.
An integral component of the radio key is a foldable bar designed for mechanical unlocking and locking of the car, as well as starting the engine.
When replacing a lost key, as well as after repair / replacement of the receiving device, the radio remote control requires initialization. Only then can it be used.
Warning: When the ignition is switched on, the radio remote control will automatically turn off.
Temporary negative impact on the performance of the device may have an overlap of transmitters operating in the same operating frequency band and located near the vehicle (e.g. mobile phones, TV stations).
