Today, I was called by a friend to help “move goods” at AEON, where everything is priced at ten yuan. She said she bought a lot and couldn’t carry it all, so she asked for help. When we got to the mall, she indeed bought a lot—two big boxes full.
When we arrived at the car with the boxes, the Bluetooth key function of the NIO ET7 was really helpful. The vehicle unlocked automatically as we approached, saving us the hassle of fishing out our phone or keys. My friend was also impressed by how convenient it was.
After loading the items, when the phone leaves the vehicle's sensing area, you can see the car automatically lock, the door handles retract, and the hazard lights flash to indicate it is locked.
Setting up the Bluetooth key for the first time requires opening the mobile app, logging into the account, and selecting the key in the vehicle management section.
At this point, you can see the option to add a card key or a smart key below. Click on "Add" and then select the Bluetooth key in the car. Follow the steps to add it. Once added successfully, the vehicle will automatically unlock the next time you approach it.
In addition to the Bluetooth key and the smart digital key via the mobile app, you can also bind an NFC key. After successfully binding the NFC key with your phone, simply bring your phone close to the NFC sensing area on the car's B-pillar to unlock the vehicle.
There are many ways to use the smart digital key, but in terms of practicality, the Bluetooth key is the most useful. It offers seamless entry and exit from the vehicle, adding a touch of sophistication and eliminating the need to pull out your phone. Both the NFC key and the smart digital key via the phone require taking out your phone to control the vehicle, which can be inconvenient when your hands are full, like they were today.
