Where is the keyhole of the Roewe RX3?
2 Answers
For the Roewe RX3 equipped with a one-button start system, the mechanical keyhole is located behind the one-button start button. You need to pry out the plastic button of the one-button start to see it. Generally, keys with keyless entry function will have the mechanical key folded or hidden within. For folding keys, simply open them to find the keyhole for starting. Below are the functions of the car key: 1. Vehicle Locator: The vehicle locator function uses the remote or alarm system. Pressing the button will make the car's horn sound and the hazard lights flash, making it easy to quickly locate your car in crowded parking areas. 2. Window Closing: After exiting the car, long-pressing the lock button can remotely close all four windows. This is a very convenient and frequently used feature. 3. Trunk Opening: The car remote key has a button to open the trunk. If you're coming out of a supermarket with bags in both hands—have you ever tried long-pressing the trunk unlock button (some cars require pressing it twice)? The trunk will automatically pop open.
I've been driving the Roewe RX3, and the keyhole is located on the driver's side door handle. If you look closely at the bottom of the door handle, there's a small indentation or rubber cover. Pry it open, and you'll see the keyhole. This design is for anti-theft purposes and the keyless entry system. In case the smart key runs out of battery, it's convenient to use the spare mechanical key to unlock the door. Actually, the location is quite hidden, and many car owners can't find it at first. But once you get used to it, it's straightforward. I often remind my friends not to forcibly break the cover. After locking the car, remember to put the cover back to maintain aesthetics and prevent rust. Overall, modern cars are designed this way for both security and practicality.
