Things to know about Smart keys.

Model: Smart Smart Various
Part: Key

In this video, the YouTuber gives us very useful information about smart keys, which are keys that do not have a visible blade to be inserted into the lock. These keys do have - it's true - an emergency "blade" (also called a "spade") hidden inside the body, which is used to open the car with a flat battery in the remote control. Usually, the lock is hidden under a cover on the driver's side only. However, once you're inside the car, there is no lock to start the car. Each car has its designated place to put the remote control, even if it's dead, which still allows you to start the car. But be careful! The remote control must be intact, meaning that you shouldn't have taken a bath with it, or run over it with your car. A piece of advice? Replace the battery at least once a year.
