yea someone did it, he had itchy fingers and decided to lock the car by manually pressing the lock button on the inside of the door near the window switches, and then proceeding to exit the car. lol its so old school its funny. bad habits die hard.
1. always lock/unlock with either remote or the outer door handle buttons.
2. always have the remote on your body, i.e i clip it on my belt loop or I have it in my pants pocket.. that way... no scenario of leaving in jackets etc etc...

There are also a couple of dead spots in the interior and in the trunk (on '05's, anyway) that you can leave the fob and still lock up the normal way.
It's supposed to be foolproof, but they always underestimate us fools.

oh yes forgot to mention he placed the fob in the cupholder or something like that.

They can take a little getting used to, especially the starter button. My daughter drove her G35 Sport to work, after having it for almost six months, and went inside. Luckily she came out for lunch, because she had left the car running. I really think it had more to do with her always being on her cell. It is nice to know that the car will idle for a long time, with no ill effects.

Sorry for the newbie question, but I have not had my dealer "lesson" on how to use everything on the car yet as I just got it the other day. I love the concept of the I-key and the unlocking by proximity w/ the request buttons on the door and trunk. However, do I need to use the key fob lock button to lock the car when I walk away? I thought I read in the manual that when you walk away, after a minute it will lock itself, but is this a setting I need to enable? I tried it and (I think) that the car didn't lock itself. Isn't that part of the idea?

wish the fob made the same little beep it does when you lock it via the door button. figure there's got to be a way to change that setting? just too lazy to look for now...
