Are there any pitfalls in changing the key fob battery?

What is the correct procedure?

The above procedure even works well when you go swimming with the key fob as well! :D

Just insert - "leave out to dry" after prise key open! lol

Prise it open at the back (near the ring loop) with a flat blade screwdriver.

Better half just took the remote for a swim at the beach.
It had a good 10 min swim I'm told.

I think the worse. Great, new remote for me to hunt down.
So I open it, thinking I'll give it wash with fresh water and dry it.

To my suprise they are very water proof!!

Tested for 10 min submersion anyway.
