The key fob allows you to push a button and start your engine. You can shut off your engine just as easily. It also permits keyless entry to your car. But, that fob can do a whole lot more.
Lower Your Windows and Open the Sunroof
While features vary by manufacturer, one of the universal features is the ability to lower your windows by pressing the unlock button on the key fob once, then pressing it again within 10 seconds and holding it down until all the windows have opened. CNET conducted an internal poll on Reddit and tapped CNET user comments to determine which models this works for.
1. Fold in Your Mirrors
A few vehicles can automatically detect when you’re parked in a tight space, and will fold in your side view mirrors automatically. If your car doesn’t have this feature, try holding the key fob lock button for 10 seconds. Recent models of Chevrolet and GMC pickup trucks have this feature.
2. Set Seat Adjustment Memory
Certain car models, like those from GMC, permit you to set a memory of where you like your seat. Each key fob is assigned its own number, so when you get in the car, it automatically knows who’s driving. Set your seat preference while in your car, and every time you hop in, you’ll be good to go!
