Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your RKE
transmitter should last about four years.
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 245 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 this type of RKE
transmitter do the following:
1. Use a flat object with a thin edge into the
notch, located above the metal base, 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.
3. Slide the new battery into the transmitter with
the positive side of the battery facing up. Use
a type CR2032 battery, or equivalent type.
Make sure the cover is on tightly, so water
will not get in.
