Thanks for the tips - I had a read of the manual and found the lock behind the cover.

This morning it happened again, so I used the manual key lock which unlocked the car and the alarm went off as expected. Unfortunately no matter how I held the key to that symbol and pressed the ignition button, it wouldn’t detect it so the alarm went on and on. I tried to use my app which had logged itself out so I had to fiddle around with that before I could eventually stop the alarm.

I decided to try a brand new 2032 battery in the key. Now that key is totally dead.

I’m down to one key that hasn’t always worked and my app now.

I bought the car last week, so I may be returning it to them on Monday.
