> and your mobile will search any existing network in your area to
> establish the emergency number for you, and interestingly this number 112 can be dialed even if the keypad is locked. This works on all phones worldwide and is
> free. It is the equivalent of 000.

> If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call
> someone at home on their mobile phone from your cell phone.

> Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the
> person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile
> phone on their end.
> Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your keys to
> you. Distance is no object. You could be thousands of miles away,
> and if you can reach someone who has the other 'remote' for your car,
> you can unlock the doors (or the trunk).
