Key FOB Batteries

The Gray Button Key FOB remote uses a flat 3V Lithium Battery (p/n CR2032) that should provide a long
period of service. To access: carefully pry off the back of the case. Lift the circuit board out then slide the
old battery out of the battery holder and slide a new battery in. The + should face away from the circuit
board.
The Key FOB remote w/ antenna uses a battery (Radio Shack p/n 23-279 or equivalent) that should
provide a long period of service. To access: Remove the small screw from the back of the case and
carefully snap off the back. Lift the old battery out and insert the new battery.
Multiple awning remotes use two standard AAA Batteries that should provide a long period of service. To
access: open the access cover on the back of the case.
Batteries are available through local battery outlets.
Battery life is dependent on frequency of use, environmental conditions and condition of remote.
