There are some Prius that are different made in Canada and the US. In Canada the Prius has lights on when driving. In the US it is optional although the 2o15 Prius 2 I plan to buy in the spring has lights on like in Canada I am sure you don't have this panic button, but don't worry the purpose of it is almost useless. It is used to scare away a thief and in 3 years and one month with my Prius 2 I haven't caught one thief. When I brought this 2011 Prius I got a whistle, band aids, a plastic rain coat, and assorted packages for snake bits, poison ivy, etc and assorted things if your car brakes down in the wilderness. In the US if your car breaks down and and you blow the whistle the Yanks look at you funny.
I’m not worrying about it. In fact exactly opposite. I don’t want it and I’m just saying that it is totally useless. You can test the distance by using lock and unlock button. And I would newer want to cause show in parking lot if I couldn’t find my car…
I think it has a multitude of possible uses, including finding your car in a parking lot, or scaring off a potential attacker.
On my key less device I open the lock by touching the door handle and lock the car by placing my thumb on the slits on the door handle. This will only work if I have the key less device in my pocket. My key less device on the top has the lock and the unlock buttons. Below is a red button called the panic button. The red button can only do one thing. It can only make the horn blow and the lights flash. What I heard about a car thief is he will watch you go into a store. They know you will be shopping for at least 15 minutes. This will give him time to do his dirty work. One thing about the panic button is it will never sound a false alarm like some cars do. That way you will never annoy your neighbor at 3 in the morning. That is a good idea. You will have that option if you are not sure you locked the car. It is not what the panic button does. The mystery is why by simply pushing the key less device panic button it will activate the horn and lights by placing at your head. The question is why doesn't it activate the lights and horn by just pointing it at the car at the same distance from the car.
I already did answer that. And also that panic button is useless in this test also since you can test it with lock or unlock as well.
If I leave my car unlocked, good luck to any car-thief who thinks he can drive it without the smartkey.
I saw a video of a manufacturer that make glass doors. They threw a baseball through the glass door and it shattered. When they threw a baseball through his manufactured door it just bounced off. The tool did shatter the glass, but no shards of glass flew out..
Wouldn't that just allow anyone to completely pack your car with styrofoam packing peanuts or balloons?
The nasty little secret is this: Anything harder than glass can shatter it. I had a cheap rescue knife with a steel glass-breaker on it, so I went out to the bone-yard on the farm and tried to break a few windows. All it did was make little pits on the glass. Then I bought a Buck Redpoint Rescue knife with a hardened tungsten-steel point, and it shattered the glass almost with no effort. I wish I had been wearing a glove, because I cut my hand doing it.
There was one scientist that had a glass vessel with plastic liquid in it and he dropped it. It shattered, but no dangerous pieces of glass were on the floor. With this discovery he invented safety glass for the cars. Before this discovery, cars in an accident would disfigure a beautiful woman's' face as well as men with the flying shards of glass.
