The Roewe RX5 key has three buttons, which are the lock button, unlock button, and trunk release button. The function of each button can also be clearly identified by the icons on the key. The specific functions are as follows: 1. Lock: Press the "Lock" button, and all door lock motors will perform a locking action simultaneously, with the turn signal flashing once. 2. Alarm deactivation: When the vehicle is in the alarm activation state of the anti-theft mode, pressing the "Lock" button will cause all door lock motors to perform a locking action simultaneously, regardless of whether the doors are open, and the alarm will be deactivated. The vehicle will still remain in the anti-theft state. 3. Unlock: Press the "Unlock" button, and all doors will perform an unlocking action simultaneously, with the turn signal flashing twice. If the vehicle is in the anti-theft state when this button is pressed to unlock, the turn signal will flash three times. When the key is in the ignition switch, the "Unlock" button cannot be used to unlock the doors. However, if the vehicle is in the alarm activation state of the anti-theft mode, inserting the key into the ignition switch and pressing the "Unlock" button will exit the anti-theft state and unlock all doors. 4. Cancel anti-theft state: When the Roewe RX5 vehicle is in the anti-theft state (including anti-theft alarm activation), pressing the "Unlock" button will cause all doors to perform an unlocking action simultaneously, with the turn signal flashing three times, and the anti-theft state will be canceled. 5. Trunk release: Press and hold for more than 3 seconds until a click is heard, the trunk will unlock, and all vehicle doors will also unlock. After closing the trunk, the doors will automatically lock.

I've been driving the Roewe RX8 for over two years now, and this key fob has truly been a convenient companion in daily life. Basic operations like button-activated unlocking and locking are highly responsive, eliminating the need to rummage through pockets for keys. The remote engine start is a standout feature – with a button press, the car preheats or precools the cabin; stepping into a toasty interior in winter or a refreshingly cool one in summer saves significant time. The one-touch trunk release is equally handy for loading bulky items, while a long press can roll windows down for ventilation. Remember, the battery lasts about a year – I set an annual reminder to replace it, avoiding untimely failures. Proximity sensing allows engine start when the key is near, but keep it away from high temperatures to prevent damage. On rare occasions when the car gets lost in parking lots, the vehicle locator function triggers flashing lights with a button press, turning chaotic parking situations stress-free.

When I first got my Roewe RX8, I was skeptical about the key functions. But after some exploration, I found the door unlocking response to be super fast, and the remote engine start has saved me from many awkward moments, like when the car wasn't cooled down before a gathering—just press a button and it starts cooling by itself. The trunk opening feature is also thoughtful, allowing me to load groceries with one hand. The key's waterproof design is reliable; I once accidentally dropped it into a bucket while washing the car, but it still worked fine after fishing it out. When the battery is low, a warning light flashes to remind me to replace it in time, avoiding any last-minute issues. The car-finding function has been a lifesaver in mall basements—the lights turn on and I can spot my car easily, saving both time and hassle. For a beginner like me, these little features make driving much more confident.

Don't waste the basic functions of the Roewe RX8 key: unlocking, locking, and remote start are essential. It's recommended to check the battery regularly and replace it with a new one about once a year—I use inexpensive AA batteries to get the job done. The trunk opening feature saves back strain; holding down the unlock button opens it, which is perfect for when you're carrying heavy items. When looking for your car, press the car-find button—the lights will flash, helping you locate it quickly and avoid wandering into the wrong area. Keep the key dry and well-ventilated to extend its lifespan. If you lose the key, don't panic—the 4S shop can provide a replacement, though it may take some time. Hanging the key on a keychain can help prevent loss. If the battery dies, you can temporarily insert the key into the card slot to start the car, but keeping a spare battery is more reliable. With simple maintenance, the key can last for many years.
