You must lock the Box with top & windows up to allow it to go to sleep. After a few days it goes into a deeper "sleep" to conserve battery power. I forget how long exactly, it's in the owners manual. Once it's in the deep sleep the remote control won't open the car you must open with the key.

Yay! I'm not crazy! (Still debatable I admit).

I knew mine ran down really fast if left unlocked. So I lock it even in the garage.

That's very nice of you explaining how things works. Once had a Owners Manual and seriously can't remember reading about this. I'm a speed reader when it comes to these sort of user manual. Its faster pressing on buttons and learning that way... for some weird reasons

So... I have to lock the car. I see. That could explain a lot then

Thx again
