Battery Replacement

Under normal use, the battery in your remote keyless
entry transmitter should last about three years.

You can tell the battery is weak if the transmitter won’t
work at the normal range in any location. If you have to
get close to your vehicle before the transmitter works,
it’s probably time to change the battery.

NOTICE:

When replacing the battery, use care not to touch
any of the circuitry. Static from your body
transferred to these surfaces may damage the
transmitter.

To replace the battery, do the following:

1. Insert a small coin or similar object to separate the

bottom half from the top half of the transmitter.

2. Remove the battery and replace it with the new one.

Make sure the positive side of the battery faces
upward. For battery replacement, use a three

-

volt

battery, type CR2032, or equivalent.

3. Snap the transmitter back together tightly to be sure

no moisture can enter.
