Renault key cards are tiny electronic devices that do many things besides unlocking doors and starting the engine. They can be used to store data and can even function as an 'auto passport'.

The history behind the hands-free card

The hands-free card is just one of those inventions that have revolutionised the way that people use cars. The hands-free card is a tiny device, smaller than the standard credit card which has revolutionized the way we drive, unlock the car and get in and out, change the music, and even the temperature. This is the story of how a small device has brought about major changes and continues to evolve to meet the needs of the times.

Renault launched its first hands-free card in 2001. It was created to be a better replacement for the traditional key. It was said to offer more comfort and security when utilized, and also reduce the time spent in the shop by allowing technicians to check the the status of the car remotely.

To do this, it emits a radio signal when the driver approaches the car, which is detected by receiver-transmitters located throughout the vehicle. If the card is present, the vehicle identifies it and sends an access code to it. This unlocks the doors and activates the immobiliser. If the card is not in range it will periodically call the card to determine if it still has an access code. This could take as little as 80 milliseconds.

However, the system had its flaws. Some customers found that washing their cards was a real pain. If the card was left in your trouser pockets it is easy to accidentally be seated on it. This could cause it to become deactivated.

To address these issues, the Renault engineers and designers "reworked the design from top to the bottom", to ensure that it was watertight. And they added an extra layer of security to protect against unintentional locking The card was fitted with a microswitch which activated and deactivated the immobiliser as quickly it was near or left the car.

The second generation of hands-free card was fitted to Laguna II and Clio IV. It further improved the quality of Laguna II, which went on to earn five stars in Euro NCAP crash tests. It was also used in the third generation Clio. This model was bigger and more spacious, and equipped with features that appealed to young drivers.

To ensure its customers the highest standard of quality, Renault's Douai plant has been working to establish new procedures. This work, in turn, has also enabled craftspeople to re-examine their approach at their skills. For instance, they can now benefit from a method known as full kitting. This means that every technician is equipped with a set of parts corresponding to the particular specification of the vehicle on which they are working.

The simple plastic case conceals an advanced electronic core. It is programmed to continually communicate with the vehicle it is linked to. It emits a signal of confirmation every time the driver is near the car. If the card responds positively, it automatically unlocks the doors.

It also enables the seats to fold down in a single or complete unit with a single push of a button. The process is smooth and a little like dominoes that tip and the system is functional even when the headrests are in their place. The seats disappear into the floor, leaving the space perfect for luggage.

The Espace V is not only innovative in its seating, but also features a range of clever storage solutions. A practical Renault Easy Life drawer transforms the glovebox in front of the passenger seat into a massive storage solution that has 12 litres of storage that is both attractive and easy to access. The centre console also offers an ample compartment hidden away that houses the hands-free cards as well as mobile.

Despite the fact that smartphones seem to be on the verge of replacing the hands-free card renault key fob has decided not to let it fade into history. The card accessory is superior to its smartphone counterpart. It can, for instance, be used even in bad weather. Another advantage is that it is not vulnerable to hacking.

The simple plastic case lies an advanced electronic core. It is programmed so that it constantly 'communicates' with the car with which it's paired. Whenever the car is approached the card emits a radio signal with an access code. If the car recognises it, it will open the doors. The entire procedure takes less than eight milliseconds.

The hand-free card also stores details about the car's serial number, registration, its owner, equipment and mileage. This reduces the time spent in the workshop if there is an issue. It also means that the mechanic is able to determine the issue by looking up the information on the hands-free card.

Hands-free cards are prone to problems and some could be serious. If the car is not driven for a long amount of time, it may lose its memory, leading to it not being able to unlock the door locks or start up the engine. The ignition key will also no longer work. The hand-free card can be reset to fix the issues, but it will not prevent future malfunctions.

The hands-free card in the Clio

Their efforts have paid off, as the cards are now so user friendly that even young drivers are able to use them without difficulty. The most recent models are more effective at detecting presence of a driver. They have more efficient aerials that can detect the presence of the card holder regardless of where they are in a 360-degree space around the car. They also have a welcome sequence that triggers as the car senses the card's proximity to the vehicle. The flush door handles are typically concealed within the car body will then open and the cover for the charging port is automatically unlocked.

The card will ping the vehicle when it's close enough. The car checks the code, and if the code matches, it unlocks the vehicle and closes the doors and boot. All of this happens in 80 milliseconds which is more than a blink of an eye. The on-board computer will continue to ping the chip on regular intervals if the card is moved away from the vehicle. If the card does not respond the doors and boot are locked again.

The presence of the hands-free card can also trigger a number of other functions, such as locking doors or horns, turning off the lighting and lowering windows. The card also keeps information such as the vehicle's serial number and registration information, the details of the owner, the vehicle's equipment and mileage, which makes it kind of like a "car passport".

While the Renault hands-free card is a convenient and safe way to control the car's features, it should never be placed in the vicinity of animals or children, as they could pose a security risk by initiating the engine or activating devices such as the electric windows. The hands-free card shouldn't be kept in hot, humid or cold conditions because it could damage the circuitry.
