To replace the dead battery of the Mini Cooper S remote control, press the small button on the edge and remove the emergency key, then using a small flathead screwdriver, lift the shell with the Mini logo and apply pressure on the edge to remove it. This way we have access to the battery compartment cover, which we can open by using the screwdriver, which we will also need to remove the old battery from its slot.

Insert the new battery, making sure to orient the positive pole upwards; replace the small cover and the shell with the Mini logo, and finally insert the emergency key back into its housing.
