battery replacement LINCOLN TOWN CAR 2003 Owners Manual

The remote entry system allows you to open the trunk while the ignition
is in any position. However, if the ignition is in the ON position and the
gearshift is in D (Drive), the trunk will only open if the vehicle is moving
5 km/h (3 mph) or slower.
Replacing the battery
The remote entry transmitter uses one coin type three-volt lithium
battery CR2032 or equivalent. The typical operating range for your
remote entry transmitter is approximately 10 meters (33 feet). A
decrease in the operating range could be caused by:
•weather conditions,
•nearby radio towers,
•structures around the vehicle and
•other vehicles parked next to the vehicle.
To replace the battery:
1. Twist a thin coin between the two
halves of the remote entry
transmitter near the key ring. DO
NOT TAKE THE FRONT PART OF
THE REMOTE ENTRY
TRANSMITTER APART.
2. Remove the old battery.
3. Insert the new battery. Refer to
the diagram inside the remote entry
transmitter for the correct orientation of the battery.
4. Snap the two halves back together.
Note:Replacement of the battery willnotcause the remote transmitter
to become deprogrammed from your vehicle. The remote transmitter
should operate normally after battery replacement.

because you lost one, or would like to buy additional remote entry
transmitters, you can either reprogram them yourself, or takeall
