Remote keyless entry system - replacing batteries
If the range of the transmitter is noticeably reduced, this indicates th\
at the battery is weak and should be
replaced.
To replace the battery
l Remove the cover by carefully prying up its rear edge with a small screw\
driver
l Replace the battery with a new 3-volt, CR 2032 battery. The battery shou\
ld be inserted with the plus
