Where is the keyless sensing position for the Emgrand GS?

The key sensing area for the Geely Emgrand is located outside the car in the middle of the driver's side door handle; inside the car, the sensing area is at the ignition switch, where the key can be placed to start the vehicle. Remote key sensing area location: The remote key sensing area is located on the right side of the vehicle's engine, near the right fender. The one-touch start sensing area is near the gear shift lever. If the key is unresponsive or there is interference, these two areas should be tried. Key sensing area precautions: The remote key has a limited control range, and the radio signal reception distance is also restricted. Under conditions with no electronic interference and no obstacles, the maximum reception distance is approximately 50 meters.
I remember one time when the battery in my Emgrand GS key suddenly died, almost causing me to be late. I quickly placed the key near the one-touch start button and successfully started the car. This sensing point is usually located at the one-touch start button below the steering wheel. If there's no response, press the button tightly for a few seconds, and the system will automatically recognize the key signal. Sometimes, if the position is slightly off, you can try moving it to the front center console area near the dashboard, generally around the driver's seat. If it still doesn't work, it might be due to other issues like signal interference or a faulty key. In such cases, I recommend checking the vehicle manual or visiting the 4S store just in case. This design is actually quite thoughtful, preventing the awkward situation of being unable to start the car when the key battery is dead. I've made it a habit to regularly replace the key battery, such as checking it once a year, which can greatly reduce trouble.
I haven't been driving for long, and when I first got my Emgrand GS, I was worried about what to do if the key fob ran out of battery someday. After checking some information, I learned that the induction spot is right at the push-to-start button, and the operation is simple: if the key fob runs out of battery, just press it tightly against the button. The location hasn't changed much, with most owners reporting it near the steering column or on the front center console. Why this design? Keyless start systems rely on close-range signals, so manufacturers reserve this emergency spot. If the induction fails, don't panic—it might be due to a completely dead battery or weak signal. I tried holding it longer or adjusting the angle. As a reminder, don't wait until the battery is completely dead to act. I check the battery level every six months by opening the key fob case and keep spare batteries in the glove box for safety.
The sensor position design on my Emgrand GS is very intuitive: when the key fob battery dies, simply press the start-stop button near the steering wheel firmly with the key close to it, and the car will start. The position is fixed in the driving area and doesn't move around. This function is designed as a backup for emergencies, simple and effective—I've tried it several times and it works. Over time, I've learned that the key is to keep the key aligned with the button position when pressing, avoiding too much deviation. Additionally, if the sensor isn't working, check for other factors like interference from nearby electronic devices or key damage, but such cases are rare.
