Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your remote keyless
entry transmitter should last about two 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 repIacing the battery, use care not to
touch
any of the circuitry. Static from your
body transferred to these surfaces may damage
the transmitter.
Use one three volt, type CR2032, or equivalent battery.
To replace the battery:
1. Insert a small coin, or flathead screwdriver, to
separate the bottom
of the transmitter from the top.
2. Remove the battery and replace it with a new one,
making s11re the positive
(+) side of the battery is
facing down.
3. Snap the top and bottom together.
4. Test the operation of the transmitter with your
vehicle.
If the transmitter does not work, try
synchronizing the transmitter with the receiver.
