Transmitter Key Battery Replacement

The transmitter keys will normally operate within a range of 5
metres from the car, but this may be reduced by the presence of
other radio signals in the vicinity. The transmitters are powered
by a long life 3V Lithium battery, type CR2032, readily available
from electrical outlets, which with normal use should last for 3
years. To ensure continuity of operation, it is recommended to
renew the batteries every 12 months:
- Using a small screwdriver, prise open the back panel of the
key case using the slot by the keyring hole.
- Remove the old battery and wait for 10 seconds before insert-
ing the new battery with +ve sign uppermost, and holding the
battery only by the periphery.
- Refit the back panel pressing firmly to engage the clip.
- The transmitter should now operate normally.

Disconnecting the Vehicle Battery

In order to prevent the alarm being triggered, before discon-
necting the vehicle battery, ensure that the alarm is disarmed.

Emergency Disarming/Mobilising

If the transmitter keys are lost or damaged, the alarm system
owner's 5-digit PIN may be used to disarm the alarm provided
that access is available to the cabin:
- Turn on the ignition. The alarm tell tale will light.
- If the alarm is armed, accessing the cabin, or turning on the
ignition will trigger the alarm until completion of this emergency
