4.1. Battery Installation (CR2032)

The Autel IKEYBW004AL requires a CR2032 coin cell battery (not included) for operation. Follow these steps to install the battery:

1. Locate the small black button on the bottom edge of the key fob, beneath the main buttons.
2. Press this button and use a small tool (like a flathead screwdriver or thumbnail) to gently pry off the metal end cap.
3. Rotate the key fob so the buttons are facing downwards. This prevents the internal buttons from falling out.
4. Carefully separate the two halves of the key fob by inserting a small screwdriver into the seam and gently rocking it.
5. Insert the CR2032 battery into the designated slot in one half of the key fob, ensuring the positive (+) side faces down.
6. Rejoin the two halves of the key fob, ensuring they snap securely together.
7. Reattach the metal end cap.

4.2. Key Blade Installation

The included key blade is uncut and designed for BMW vehicles. It must be cut by a professional locksmith or mechanic to match your vehicle's existing key blade.

1. Take the uncut key blade to a qualified professional for cutting.
2. Once cut, insert the key blade into the designated slot on the key fob until it clicks securely into place.
