“Safe Use of Keyless Entry Fobs”
Key Hazards
- Unintended remote starts
- Vehicle movement in crowded areas
- Fob signal interference
2–3 Minute Talk Script
Safe use of keyless entry fobs is important for fleet drivers, delivery workers, and field staff. Modern fobs can start or unlock vehicles remotely.
Workers should store fobs where buttons won’t be pressed accidentally.
Different vehicles may continue running as long as the fob is near them, so distance awareness matters.
Weak fob batteries can cause lockout situations.
Safety Reminders
- Avoid pressure on fob buttons.
- Keep fob batteries fresh.
- Stay aware of remote start distance.
- Store fobs securely when working.
Ask the Crew
- Are any fleet vehicles prone to long remote start range?
- Do any fobs need new batteries?
