Remote Keys
Some cars use remote keyless entry, which allows the doors and trunk to be opened without the use of a physical key. To do this, people put their keys in their pockets and move one meter from the door handle or trunk, where they push the Request Switch. The car is able to detect the signal and sends a reply, which unlocks the doors or opens the trunk. When the driver returns to their car they push the Request Switch again to lock it, or turn on the engine if inside the cabin.
The keys transmit a 40-bit code when they are pressed, and the receiver in the car is looking at that code to determine the best course of action. If someone discovers your key fob in a purse or bag and they find it, they can "capture" the code, retransmit it and then unlock the car, even when the original transmitter's battery is dead.

Certain key fobs include additional functions that can be activated by pressing several buttons, for example, the possibility of rolling down all windows or open a sunroof with one button. For instance, the key fobs for Volvo SUVs and Ford pickups are equipped with this feature. It's not always clearly labeled but it is possible to trigger it by pressing the lock and unlock button on the key fob simultaneously (within 10 second) while pressing the unlock button until all windows are opened up or the sunroof has been opened.
