Link two keys to seat memory

[Neilo]

Hi all, my wife has just started to drive the IS250, I've linked my key to memory 1 button settings on the door and it works fine - does anyone know if it is possible to link the second key to button 2 settings please?

If I have the seat positioned to button 2 settings - when I press button 2 on the door I get a beep straight away before even pressing lock or unlock on the fob - the fob doesnt link up.  

Just wondering if only one key can be programmed maybe?

Thanks for any help

Neil.

Indeed that is possible, that is basically the key point of having memory seats. So if two people use the same car, they each can have their own key and everything adjusts to their preferred size. I think in total you can link 3 different keys. 

The way to set it - first obviously set the memory on the seats (say setting 1 for yourself and setting 2 for your wife), then turn the car OFF, close all the doors, press and hold desired memory function (1, 2, 3) AT the same time as pressing and holding "lock" key on desired key fob. In my experience works better if second key is not even close to the car (in theory should not matter). Page 22 for both if you have car manual, not sure what it would be on pdf. 

So basically, first record preferred memory option on seats and mirrors for yourself and wife (let's say positions 1 and 2), then take only the key you want to link with you to the car and follow the steps for memory setting 1, put the key away, take another key repeat the same steps for memory setting 2.

Now one thing that always bugged me sharing the car was the interior mirror... but I am guess I am just picky and one can't have everything all the time.

Thank you Linas, sorted it now - I had the engine running when trying to pair up the second fob to memory 2. It worked straight away with the engine off as you said to do, thanks for your detailed info and the time taken.

Cheers
