Each owner of the car at least once in his life was in a situation where the keys remain inside a locked car. Do not panic or, worse, beat the glass.

If at home you have a second set of a remote key, take your phone, calmly dial the cellular number of one of the households and ask to use the key directly from home, having previously brought it to your mobile phone, and at that time keep your device at a distance of about 30 Cm from the car door.

Thus, your phones will create a kind of portal and serve as a guide for the key. This will help you save time, material costs and in two accounts to open your car. The distance in this case has absolutely no value: whether you are at least a hundred kilometers from home, if you can get through to a person with spare keys, you can open a car or even a trunk!

It's not unfortunate, but every second mobile phone owner at least once in his life became a victim of cell phone theft. The situation is very unpleasant and it is often not even the cost of the device, but information.

If you live in a big city, we advise you to take a responsible approach to the safety of your property, and, of course, does not prevent you from being reinsured once again. If you still lost your phone, it's best to block it immediately. For this you will need a serial number for the cellular.

Dial the following combination of digits * # 06 # on the phone, then the 15-digit code will be displayed on the screen - this is a unique number that never repeats and is assigned by the manufacturer individually to each device. Write it down and keep it in a safe place. If your phone is lost, call your mobile operator and report this code, then the cell phone can be blocked.

After such a phone it will be impossible to use. Of course, this is not a guarantee that you will be returned, but at least your phone in its original form can not be used by an attacker.

To activate it, you need to dial the combination of numbers * 3370 #, after which the phone will reboot using the backup battery and the battery charge will increase by 50%. The backup battery will in turn be recharged the next time the battery is charged.
