REMOTE HANDSET BATTERY
The handset contains
delicate electronic
circuits and must be protected
from impact and water damage,
high temperatures and
humidity, direct sunlight and
the effects of solvents, waxes
and abrasive cleaners.
The battery should last for approximately three years
dependent upon use. Always fit a Rover YWK10003 or a
Panasonic CR2032 replacement battery (available from a
Rover dealer).
When the battery needs replacing it will be apparent from a
gradual deterioration in range and performance.
On cars fitted with a message centre, a warning icon and
message will be displayed when the battery needs replacing
(see ‘Message centre’).
Battery renewal
1.
Insert the blade of a small flat-bladed screwdriver into the
slot at the rear of the handset (see illustration) and prise
the rear of the back upwards.
2.
Insert the screwdriver blade horizontally into the side of
the handset and then slide it towards the key. Lift off the
back of the handset.
3.
Use a small flat-bladed screwdriver to prise the battery
from its mounting (see illustration), taking care to avoid
touching the circuit board or the metal battery contacts.
