Subaru Outback (BR): Changing the batteries
CAUTION
● Do not let dust, oil or water get on or in the remote engine start transmitter when replacing the battery.
● Be careful not to damage the printed circuit board in the remote engine start transmitter when replacing the battery.
● Be careful not to allow children to touch the battery and any removed parts; children could swallow them.
● There is a danger of explosion if an incorrect replacement battery is used. Replace only with the same or equivalent type of battery.
● Batteries should not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.
The two 3-volt lithium batteries (model CR-2032) supplied in your remote engine start transmitter should last approximately one year, depending on usage. When the batteries begin to weaken, you will notice a decrease in range (distance from the vehicle that your remote control operates). Follow the instructions below to change the remote engine start transmitter batteries.
1. Remove the small Phillips type screw located on the back side lower left corner of the transmitter.
2. Carefully pry the remote engine start transmitter halves apart using a small flathead screwdriver.
3. Remove the circuit board from the bottom half of the case and remove the batteries and replace with new ones. Be sure to observe the (+) sign on the old batteries before removing them to ensure that the new batteries are inserted properly (battery “+” should be pointed away from the transmitter circuit board on both batteries).
4. Carefully snap the case halves back together, reinstall the Phillips type screw and test the remote engine start system.
