3 Answers
Solutions for when the one-key start key of Emgrand runs out of battery: 1. Insert the smart key into the smart key slot, wait for a moment, and the vehicle will sense the presence of the key to start the engine; 2. If there is a keyhole initiated by a metal key, locate this keyhole, insert the key blade from the remote key, and start the vehicle as you would with a conventional car; 3. Place the remote key against the one-key start button or sensing area, and the vehicle will sense the key to start the engine; 4. If the battery is dead, simply replace the battery; 5. You can go to a 4S store to replace it with a new smart battery, or purchase a battery of the same model and replace it yourself.
When I used to drive an Emgrand, I also encountered the issue of a dead key fob battery for the one-button start. This is quite a common situation. Don't panic—there's a hidden physical key blade inside the fob. First, pull it out and insert it into the small hole on the driver's side door to manually unlock it. Once inside the car, place the entire key fob close to the start button. The Emgrand's design allows the car to sense the key and start the vehicle. I've tried this method several times, and it always works. If there's still no response, check if the key has poor contact or is completely out of battery. To prevent this, replace the battery regularly—it's recommended to do so every 1-2 years. You can easily buy a CR2032 coin cell battery from the market and replace it yourself. Also, avoid dealing with this issue in remote areas—safety first. If the car still won't start, call for roadside assistance. The Emgrand's feature is very thoughtful, but regular key maintenance is also crucial. Avoid exposing it to moisture or dropping it, as this can affect the battery life.
As a new owner of a Geely Emgrand, I was a bit panicked when I encountered a key fob battery drain for the first time. But the actual operation is quite simple: remove the physical key part, insert it into the small slot next to the driver's door handle to unlock. Once inside the car, place the drained key fob near the start button, and the vehicle system will automatically detect and unlock to start the engine. I recommend keeping a spare CR2032 battery in the car, which can be bought online for just a few dollars. Regularly check if the small indicator light on the key fob dims to predict battery replacement time—don't wait until the last minute. Preventive maintenance can save a lot of trouble, especially checking the key fob's status before nighttime or bad weather trips to ensure driving safety.
