The Latest Features on Your Skoda Car Keys

Amid a range that's now almost entirely dominated by SUVs, the Fabia is an excellent supermini option. The fourth-generation model sees the junior model brought up to date with the same technology found in its sibling VW Group models.

It uses a set antennas to scan the surroundings, and as soon as the key is in the range of it, it initiates the unlock process. Other neat features include:

Start and Exit

You can lock and unlock your car with the start and exit feature of your skoda key, without having to use your key fob. The KESSY control unit of your vehicle recognizes your key up to 1.5 meters away and automatically unlocks it when you open the front door or tailgate. By pressing a button, you can start the car. This is extremely convenient if you have to stop at several places on your way to work or when you're parking at the gas station.

You can also close the windows using your skoda keys while driving. This feature is great for when you're out on a trip and you want to keep the sun out. The car key also comes with a handy feature that warns you when your keys are inside your car when you leave. It does this by flashing indicators, so you can take your keys and leave.

One of the most exciting things about a skoda smart keys is that it can be programmed to close all your windows at once when you lock your car. This is a really useful feature when you're running late or forget to close the windows. The system will even close the sunroof if it's equipped.

You can share your smart key by adding the person to the Wallet app. A unique code will be displayed after sharing your key, and they'll require to enter this code in order to add the key to their device. You may also require an activation code, or a Vehicle Code, which will protect your key from being accessed by unauthorized people.

You should get a replacement key from your dealer if you require one. This is because modern car keys include a transponder chip that needs to be synced with the specific vehicle you own. When they said buy the car key from an establishment, you are generally assured that it will work before you leave. However, if you purchase it online, there's no guarantee that it will function.


Unlock and Lock Windows

As a security feature, all modern SKODA keys have a classic mechanical lock cylinder that is located in the door of the driver. It's still present in older models. The time will come when even this won't be visible, but it's available in case you ever lose your keys or need to open your vehicle manually since the battery has died.

If the window is locked, you can press a button to roll it down. This is helpful in the event that your children smash the windows in the rear down but you don't want to risk breaking the glass to remove them. If the window hasn't been fully slammed down, it will remain in a roll. It can only be unlocked by pressing the unlock button on the key fob.

Certain windows can be locked automatically by using an snib that prevents the window from opening once it is closed. The snib's image is of a padlock that is open near the "Unlock" position, and an unlocked padlock close to the "Lock" position. To unlock a window with this kind of lock, pull the window sash toward the frame. If the window does not move back, you might need to pinch the sash.

I have a close friend who owns a Skoda Laura 2011. He kept his keys inside but was locked out. He called the service, and they told him that he'd have to cut the glass to remove the keys. They quoted him around 10k to complete the task. Do you have a better solution?

You can share your car keys with an intelligent key system if you have a skoda. It's a breeze to set up. It's important that the person you're sharing with has the latest version of iOS or watchOS, and has been set to receive notifications for the car keys. You can also need an activation code or Vehicle Code to ensure additional security.

After clicking "Share," a one-time security code will appear. You can share it via Messages, or for maximum security, you can give it in person or by phone. The recipient will be able to tap "Add to iPhone" or "Add To Watch" and follow the instructions onscreen to add the car keys to their device.

Remote Start

Many people still swear by the feel of traditional keys, however modern vehicles come with remote start options. This lets you remotely start the car if you're stuck at work or when the weather gets chilly and you're in need of the heater to kick in.

You'll need a compatible iPhone or Apple Watch to use this feature, and it requires the latest version of your car's software. To enable this feature, open the Settings app and then select "Keys" (or "Car"). In this section, you can name the key (or choose a recent contact) and set permissions, and even require a password for additional security.

If you want to start your car, you can use the button on your key fob - or the remote start button (often marked with an arrow). Press and hold the button for a minimum of four seconds to turn on the engine and activate the parking lights, climate control and rear window defogger. Then, put the car in gear P and you're ready to go.

Depending on the car you drive, you can also lock or unlock the car and then begin it using passive entry (or "keyless go"). This works by holding the key inside the door handle or reader, or by using messaging apps like Messages and WhatsApp. This feature requires an iPhone 11 or newer and an Apple Watch Series 6 to be able to use. It can be activated by activating the "passive" mode in the software for your vehicle.

Interestingly, you can also bypass the battery in your backup blade by switching the ignition to ON, then physically locking the door of the driver with the key. This will then reset all remote-controlled functions of the car, including the starter, however you'll require the key to start it.
