Summary:A device according to the present invention is proposed for the keyless operation of a motor vehicle ( 8 ), having a transponder ( 14 ) that sends a code to at least one transceiver ( 12 ). A control unit ( 10 ) compares the code to an expected code, and upon agreement, enables at least one component ( 16, 18 ) necessary for the operation of the motor vehicle ( 8 ), and deactivates it in the shutdown state of the motor vehicle ( 8 ). A timer (T2, T3) is provided, whose output value is compared to a specifiable time duration (t2, t3), the at least one component ( 16, 18 ) necessary for the operation of the motor vehicle ( 8 ) being deactivated when the output value of the timer (T2, T3) exceeds the specifiable time duration (t2, t3).
