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. Pop the old battery out with a toothpick or plastic pick, not a metal blade, and seat the new one with the + side matching the old one.
  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.

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.

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