Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your RKE
transmitter should last about four years.
You can tell the battery is weak if the transmitter
will not work at the normal range in any location.
If you have to get close to your vehicle before
the transmitter works, it is probably time to change
the battery.
The REPLACE BATTERY IN REMOTE KEY
message in the vehicle’s DIC will display if the
RKE transmitter battery is low. See “REPLACE
BATTERY IN REMOTE KEY” under DIC Warnings
and Messages on page 221 for additional
information.
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 in the RKE transmitter do
the following:
1. Insert a flat object with a thin edge into the
notch, located below the trunk release button,
and separate the bottom half from the top half
of the transmitter.
2. Remove the old battery, but do not use a
metal object to do this.
