How to change the battery of the Citroen DS3

Model: Citroen Ds3 MK 1 - Years 2010-2019
Part: Key

In this video, we can see how to change the battery of the Citroen DS3 remote control (but the same procedure is also valid for the DS4): with a small screwdriver, we gently pry on the metal part to remove the cover. Once this operation is done, we can split the body of the remote control in two halves, in order to expose the part with the battery. This is held in place by a sort of metal cage, but it will be enough to gently push it out. It is a CR1620 battery that we can easily find in any supermarket or electronics store; put it back in its cage, close the two halves of the remote control body and put the metal cover back in place. The operation is complete.

Pull this lever towards you until you hear a "click" indicating the bonnet is released. Next, exit the cabin and stand in front of the bonnet to disengage the safety catch and complete the opening. To do this, slightly lift the bonnet, locate the yellow lever underneath, and pull it to the left to fully release and open the bonnet.
