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. Use the slot where the metal key sat. Twist, do not lever hard, and work along the seam until the halves separate.
  3. Before you take the old cell out, look at its face. Put the new cell in with the same side showing, and avoid touching both faces at once.
  4. Snap the halves back together, slide the metal key home, and press each button, then try the start button from the driver's seat.

Cadillac smart remotes commonly hide a key behind a side button. With it out, the case opens at the bottom slot.

A CR2450 is 24.5 mm across and 5.0 mm thick, much fatter than a CR2032. A thinner cell will rattle and lose contact, so buy the exact size.

Coin cells are a choking and burn hazard for children. Store the spares in their original pack, out of reach.
