Once you have the battery removed it can be replaced with an alternative identical in size. To make sure that the battery is functioning correctly, it is important to place the new battery with both plus and minus markings facing upwards.
The batteries in key fobs can be swallowed by children as they are small. If the battery is swallowed, it can cause internal chemical burns within a couple of hours and could lead to death. Children should never be left unsupervised with keys. It is also good to keep additional key fobs in the event of emergencies or lost keys. A spare key allows you to start your car by hand in the case of an unlocked car.

Buttons
There are many things that your key fob can do beyond unlocking and starting your car. Some cars come with buttons that can roll down the windows. Others include panic buttons that make a loud noise to repel criminals in a dangerous situation.
Some fobs feature a mechanical lock that can be taken off when the battery has run out. This could expose the IC and the sensor that is underneath the keypad to dirt or moisture, which could lead to the development of problems in the future.
It's simple to change the battery inside your keyfob. Make use of a flat-bladed small device or your fingernail for releasing the bottom cover of the key fob. If the fob is equipped with a lanyard attached, you will need to pull the lanyard with a firm grip to release it.

This will prevent thieves from gaining access to your vehicle with a compromised key fob.
Memory Seats
Seat memory is a feature that some luxury cars offer. It lets you save the seating position you prefer in your car so you can access it each time you drive. It operates by means of a set of buttons typically located on the driver's side door panel, right next to the levers for the power seat. G28 has two saved positions, and can be used more than once (think spouses, best friends or even partners in the world of crime).
To enable the function, sit in the driver seat, press and hold the SET button for around five seconds until you hear a single chime. This will set the power seat, mirrors and hud display to your desired preference. To recall, simply press the number button (either 1 or 2) that corresponds with your driver's number.
Depending on the car and the type of vehicle, memory settings can be assigned to specific keyfobs. This means that you can save profiles with each keyfob. They'll automatically remember when you use the key for the driver you've designated. This is particularly beneficial if multiple people often drive the vehicle which allows them to save their personal preferences for driving without having to manually adjust the seats and mirrors every when they enter the car.
Make sure that if there are two drivers who have a different preference for seating, they'll have to recall their seating positions manually each time they change key fobs. This could be a hassle, but it helps to avoid any confusion or mishaps in the future.
Push-Button Starts
Push-button starts are a wonderful convenience that allows you to start your vehicle without having to turn the key. Like all conveniences, there is a price. Since these systems began to become popular, numerous people have died of carbon monoxide and uncontrolled moving automobiles due to the fact that they did not turn off their automobiles.
Many of the top car brands offer the push-button feature in their key fobs. However you can also find them on less expensive models. It is easy to purchase fobs to replace your vehicle at your local AutoZone and they'll appear exactly like the originals.
If you're having issues with your push-button start, the initial step is to replace the battery. The batteries for the fob typically last for a few years before they have to be replaced. Then, look over the fob and see whether there are any buttons that seem to be missing or damaged. It's not uncommon for buttons to get stuck or smashed in time, because the fob is constantly jostled.
The push-button system in your vehicle operates using an electronic signal that is transmitted wirelessly to the vehicle antenna. The car's engine only comes on when the button is pressed, and the car is then sent a code to the car which activates its ignition. If you're having difficulty getting your car started, it could be an issue with the push-button start system in the fob or an issue that is more serious and requires an examination for diagnostics.
