With keyless, you lock and unlock the car with the Mileage Book Fleet app, so you do not have to collect or return a key. The key stays in the car, e.g. in the glove compartment.
Keyless can be used both with and without booking, depending on how your company has set it up. Ask the person responsible for your cars if you are unsure. Read more about keyless in general in Fleet - Keyless locking and unlocking: introduction.
Before you start
1. Download the Mileage Book Fleet app from the App Store or Google Play, and log in with your user. Log in the first time when you are not in a hurry, so you are sure that your login works. See Fleet - The Mileage Book Fleet app: overview.
2. If you use booking, you must book the car before you can unlock it. See Fleet - Booking a pool car in the Mileage Book Fleet app. If you do not use booking, you see the cars that your fleet manager has given you access to, and can go directly to the car.
How to unlock the car
1. Go to the car, and stand less than 5 meters from it, so your phone can find the car via Bluetooth.
2. Select the Car key menu item in the app.
3. Select the Bluetooth view (recommended) or the SMS view, and unlock the car.
4. Open the car door within a few minutes. Otherwise the car's automatic lock may activate, and the car must then be unlocked with the key and locked with the app before keyless works again.
The Bluetooth view sends a signal directly to the car, which unlocks within a few seconds. The SMS view sends a text message via an external network provider, which sends a message to the car. It can take up to 2 minutes before the car unlocks.
- Download the Mileage Book Fleet app via the App Store or Google Play
- Login with your user. If this is your first time logging in, it is best to do so at a time when you are not pressed for time so that you ensure your login works as intended.
- If bookings are required during the setup, you must first make a booking for the vehicle you would like to use. Read here how to book a vehicle.
- Physically go to the car and make sure you are less than 5 meters from the car so that you are sure your phone's Bluetooth signal can find the car.
- Next, select the menu item "Car key" in the menu item in your app.
- Here you can select "Bluetooth" view (recommended) or SMS view.
- The Bluetooth view is recommended to use as standard. It sends a Bluetooth signal immediately to the car and it unlocks within a few seconds.
- The SMS function unlocks by sending an SMS to an external network provider, which then sends a message to the car to unlock. Delays may be experienced with this function.

If the app cannot find the car
Get as close to the car as possible. If the app still cannot find any cars even though you are standing next to the car, you get an error message. Restart the app, check that Bluetooth is turned on, and try again.
The app does not show whether the car is locked. Try the car door to see whether the car is locked or unlocked.
While you use the car
Take the key from the glove compartment, and use it to drive. While you have the car, you may lock and unlock it with the key, e.g. when you are at a meeting. The important thing is that you unlock the car with the app when you start, and lock it with the app when you are completely finished.
How to finish using the car
1. Park the car in its regular spot.
2. Put the key back, e.g. in the glove compartment.
3. Lock the car with the app.
4. If you use booking and finish early, change the end time of your booking, so the car becomes available to others.
The car is now ready for the next person.
