Changing the battery

Smart key (push-button start)

  1. Start by freeing the hidden metal key: there is a latch or slide on the case, and the blade comes out once it moves.
  2. Look inside the empty key slot for a notch. Put the tip of the metal key or a small flat screwdriver wrapped in tape there and twist gently until the shell splits.
  3. Note which side of the old coin cell faces up (usually the side with the writing), lift it out with a plastic tool, and press the new one in the same way.
  4. Reassemble, refit the emergency key, and check that the car sees the fob when you press start.

A CR2032 is 20 mm across and 3.2 mm thick. CR2032, CR2025 and CR2016 share the same width but not the same thickness, so a swap between them can leave a loose contact or a case that will not close.

If a child might have swallowed a coin cell, treat it as an emergency and get to a hospital right away.
