Each new key contains a microchip which

must be coded with the data from the vehicle

electronic immobiliser. A vehicle key will not

work if it does not contain a microchip or the

microchip has not been encoded. This is also

vehicle.

cle. The range of the vehicle key with remote

control and new battery is several metres
