Changing the battery

Key with remote in the head

  1. This type has the buttons built into the key head. The cell is inside that head, between two clipped halves.
  2. Work a thin flat tool into the seam near the blade and twist; go round slowly if it does not open at once.
  3. The coin cell is usually under or on the back of a small board. Keep the rubber button pad in place while you swap the cell.
  4. Close the head, check there is no gap, and try the buttons.

A CR2032 is 20 mm across and 3.2 mm thick. CR2032, CR2025 and CR2016 share the same width but not the same thickness, so a swap between them can leave a loose contact or a case that will not close.

Coin cells are a choking and burn hazard for children. Store the spares in their original pack, out of reach.
