Replacing the key fob’s batteryThe key fob’s battery should last for
approximately one year depending on use.
When the battery needs replacing, you’ll notice a deterioration in performance. For
example, you’ll gradually need to be closer to
the vehicle to operate the key fob.
To replace the battery:
1. Remove the securing screw on the rear of the key fob and carefully separate the two
halves. Avoid damaging the seal between
the two halves.
2. Remove the batteries, taking care to avoid touching the circuit board or the
contact surfaces of the battery holder.
3. Fit two new batteries (type CR1616) with the ‘+’ sides facing upwards.
If possible, avoid touching the flat
surfaces of the battery because finger
marks will reduce battery life. Wipe the
battery clean before fitting.
4. Assemble the two halves of the key fob.
ComplianceThe key fob complies with Title 47 CFR Part
15 Subpart C rules for intentional radiators.
Operation is subject to the following
conditions:
• This device may not cause harmful
interference.
• This device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
Any changes or modifications to the key fob
not expressly approved by the manufacturer
or Tesla Motors could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.
