Replacing the Key Battery on a Citroen C3

Model: Citroen C3 SC - Years 2009-2016
Part: Key

To open the remote key of your Citroen C3, obtain a small flat object, such as a small screwdriver or a plastic wedge, and insert it into the slot at the top of the casing. Then, lever it in the same slot to open the remote in two halves. Once done, remove the circuit board inside and extract the battery, which is now accessible. Insert a new one: it is a CR1620 3 Volt battery, available at hardware stores or large supermarkets. Reassemble the remote, and you're done. As you can see, it is a very simple operation.

How to Check the Oil Level on a Jeep Renegade?

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level. This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
