Changing the battery
Flip key
- Fold the blade out so it is out of the way, or keep it folded if your case opens from the side; the battery sits in the plastic body, not the blade.
- Some flip keys have a screw on the back; others just clip. Remove the screw if there is one, then pry gently at the seam.
- Lift the cell out with a plastic tool and press in the new one with the + side matching.
- Clip the body closed, fold the blade, and test the buttons from a few steps away.
A CR2032 is 20 mm across and 3.2 mm thick. CR2032, CR2025 and CR2016 share the same width but not the same thickness, so a swap between them can leave a loose contact or a case that will not close.
Smart key (push-button start)
- Start by freeing the hidden metal key: there is a latch or slide on the case, and the blade comes out once it moves.
- Use the slot where the metal key sat. Twist, do not lever hard, and work along the seam until the halves separate.
- Before you take the old cell out, look at its face. Put the new cell in with the same side showing, and avoid touching both faces at once.
- Snap the halves back together, slide the metal key home, and press each button, then try the start button from the driver's seat.
Hyundai smart keys usually have a button that releases the mechanical key; a flat tool in the gap then opens the case.
A CR2032 is 20 mm across and 3.2 mm thick. CR2032, CR2025 and CR2016 share the same width but not the same thickness, so a swap between them can leave a loose contact or a case that will not close.
A CR2450 is 24.5 mm across and 5.0 mm thick, much fatter than a CR2032. A thinner cell will rattle and lose contact, so buy the exact size.
