These transmitters use a replaceable CR2032, 3.3V, lithium battery³, enclosed in a tamper-proof battery compartment. The battery should be replaced when a button press does not result in a flash of the LED, reliable read range, and/or an output from the Receiver.
To replace the battery, follow the directions below:
1. Using a coin, place it in the gap (2-piece unit) near the key ring holder and twist to pop the transmitter open.
2. Remove the old battery.
3. Insert the new CR2032, 3.3V, lithium battery. Be sure the plus (+) side of the battery is facing up (visible when installed).
