Nah. Plenty of time to do that while you await the arrival of the tow truck.

It uses induction charging I believe.

Yes, as RoundaWhile has said, the D3 key recharges by induction.
therefore, it pays to rotate usage of your spare key to ensure it stays charged.
if one key does go completely flat, just tape it on the steering column shroud and it will charge up.

Or a phone induction charger also works, i do rotate my keys to keep them both charged.
