How Your Key Fob Can Make Your Life Easier Your key fob can be more than just a key to unlock your car's doors. Some fobs can also perform other functions like rolling down windows and directing your car to park itself. The FB Series enclosures feature a coin cell battery holder that snaps in place. This battery can be used with key fob batteries. In addition, the key ring's molded slots make it easy to attach standard keys. Comfort Access Comfort Access is a popular accessory for mini cooper owners, as it helps them in the everyday chores of driving their vehicle. This includes making it easier of getting into and out of their car, especially when they are carrying heavy objects or have trouble opening the door using regular keys. The key fob is a tiny device that makes use of RFID, also known as radio-frequency identification to unlock the vehicle. Contrary to traditional key chains which require the user to insert the key into a slot, this system only requires owners to approach the vehicle with the key fob held in hand. The system allows drivers to open and close the trunk from a distance and close or open the sunroof. These features can be very useful for certain drivers, however they can also cause problems. If your comfort access isn't working as it is supposed to, there are a few ways to solve the issue. You should also ensure that there aren't any obstructions between the sensors of your car, the window button or door handle and the key fob has been properly inserted into the car keyhole. If you're still having problems try restarting the car and try again. If these steps do not work, you can contact a mechanic for additional help. Remote Start Many people are shocked to learn that the MINI Cooper keyfob has remote start. It lets you remotely start your vehicle from as far as 70 meters (or 230 feet) away. Press the lock button twice, and hold it for a few seconds to activate a remote-start. You can also roll up or down your windows and enjoy the fresh air before you enter your car. Another feature you can turn on with the key fob is remote mirror control. This lets you fold and unfold your wing mirrors, as you would do with the switch in your car. You can also use the key fob in order to close your trunk, which is very handy if you have neglected to lock your vehicle. You can set up various driver profiles to adjust the climate and seat position based on the person driving. If you share your BMW with someone you love you can share all the comforts of a BMW while keeping their own personal driving experience. Remote Trunk Close The key fob of your mini cooper comes with some hidden functions that can make your life easier. It is among them the ability to remotely open or close your trunk. This is particularly useful when you have a large object in the rear of your car and don't need to lift it or unbuckle your seatbelt. You can also use the key fob to open or shut your windows and sunroof when you're in an awkward location and don't want to get out of your vehicle to do the same. The key fob can summon your car, just like Tesla's summoning feature. The lock button on the key fob has to be repeated three times. Your car will automatically return from or enter an area for parking and stop at the spot you direct it to. The first thing you should do when you lose your key fob is disable it. This will stop it from being used by burglars. It's simple and takes only a few moments. The instructions for deactivation are available in your owner's manual or on the website of the automaker. You can also buy an additional key fob and have it programmed at the dealership, but they'll require your driver's license and proof of ownership. Remote Mirror Control BMW is focused on providing its customers with features that improve the performance of their cars. One of the most commonly used amenities that comes with the new MINI Cooper is the ability to remotely open and close your trunk and sunroof via the key fob. To do this, remove your key from the ignition and press the unlock button three times quickly. The car remains in accessory mode which allows you to press the unlock button a third time. Another handy feature that comes with your new MINI Cooper key fob is Remote Mirror Control. It allows you to fold and unfold your wing-mirrors using the key fob, giving you more room in parking spots that are tight. This feature will also keep you from having another person drive the vehicle and mess with your radio settings and seat position, as well as other preferences you've set.
