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 trarisrnitter works,
it’s probably time to change the battery.
For battery replacement, use one Duracella battery, type
DL-2032, or a similar type.
NOTICE:
When replacing the battery, use care not to
touch any of the circuitry. Static from your
body transferred to these surfaces may damage
the transmitter.
To replace the battery:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Insert a coin into the notch near the key ring. Turn
the coin to the left to separate the two halves of
the transmitter.
Once the transmitter is separated, use a pencil eraser
to remove the old battery. Do not use a metal object.
Remove and replace the battery. Replace it as the
instructions inside the cover indicate.
Snap the transmitter back together tightly to be sure
no moisture can enter.
Resynchronize the transmitter by pressing and
holding the
LOCK and UNLOCK buttons for about
eight seconds. You,must be within range of the
vehicle. When the transmitter has been

adjust
to rapid cornering, acceleration or braking.
If the computer command ride detects a problem in the
