The batteries inside each remote control should last approximately 1 year under normal

use. When the batteries become weak you will notice the remote control range (the

distance from the vehicle the remote control will work) deteriorate and the small LED on

the remote control will dim. To replace the remote control batteries:

1. Remove 1 screw then disassemble the halves of the remote

control by unsnapping the back of the case.

2. Remove the old battery, observing the +/- symbols on the

batteries and replace with a new battery.

3. Reassemble the halves of the remote control and reinstall 1 screw.

4. Test operation of the remote control.
