The Convenience of Mini Cooper Keys

The key fob in your car is loaded with features that make driving your MINI an easy task. You can lock or unlock your door via remote and open the sunroof. It also lets you start your vehicle.

A locksmith or a dealer can replace your keys if you lose them. It is best to get an extra key, whether it's a smart fob or a standard non-remote one prior to the time of purchase.

Remote entry

One of the most useful functions on a MINI Cooper key fob is its ability to unlock your vehicle. Using a key fob can make it easier for you to avoid having to retrieve your car keys each time you want to leave your house or go to a location close by. You can also lock your vehicle more easily when you are parking in public areas. Key fobs can even unlock your trunk, which is an ideal option for those who are prone to forgetting to close the trunk when getting out of their car.

You can activate your car's remote entry feature by pressing the "lock" button on your key fob three times at a time while your vehicle is in accessory mode. This can be used to open and close your doors, shut the sunroof and set the alarm for parking remotely. You can also use the key fob to fold and unfold your wings mirrors. You can also set the acoustic lock verification that will emit an audible tone each time you turn the key to unlock your vehicle.

The remote can be set to work with BMW Comfort Access. You can determine if this feature is available on your key fob by taking a look at the sticker that is underneath the key fob. Consult your local locksmith if are unsure.

Keyless entry

If your car has keyless entry, you can use the remote to lock and unlock it. This feature is extremely convenient especially if your car isn't always within reach. You can also start the engine with the system, without pressing the key. The keyless entry system will even inform you about the condition of your vehicle's battery and if there is any issue with the engine.

You can also remotely close the trunk. You can also press the hood release button located on the side of your dashboard. In addition the key fob could also control the sunroof. These functions are only available if your keys are properly programmed. If your key fob isn't functioning, you may need to replace the battery, or perform a reset.

Some people want an additional key fob in case their original is damaged or lost. They may also want to give their family members or friends their own Driver profile, in order to not have to make the same changes as the primary key fob. You can order a new key fob that is unlocked from a reputable provider which will program it for your specific car.

If you have Comfort Access, the car will detect the key fob you carry in your pocket or purse and open your doors automatically upon entering it.  The Key Lab  helps you unlock your trunk and hatchback as well as open and close the windows, and even retract the sunroof.
