completion of program mode.
All transmitters must be programmed at the same
time.
Replacing the battery
The transmitter is powered by one coin type
three-volt lithium battery CR2032 or equivalent.
Typical operating range will allow you to be up to 10
meters (33 feet) away from your vehicle. A decrease
in operating range can be caused by:
²battery weakness due to time and use
²weather conditions
²nearby radio towers
²structures around the vehicle
²other vehicles parked next to the vehicle
To replace the battery:
1. Twist a thin coin
between the two halves
of the transmitter near
the key ring. DO NOT
TAKE THE FRONT
PART OF THE
TRANSMITTER
APART.
2. Place the positive
(+) side of new battery
in the same orientation.
Refer to the diagram inside the transmitter unit.
3. Snap the two halves back together.
Replacement of the battery willnotcause the
remote transmitter to become deprogrammed from
your vehicle. The remote transmitter should operate
normally after battery replacement.
