Today we will explain how to replace the battery of the remote control of a Mini vehicle model F 56. The battery we will use for the replacement is a CR 2023. To replace the battery, we need to press the sides of the remote control to remove the top part and the metal key inside. Using a flathead screwdriver, we remove the cover of the remote control and push the tab to remove the battery. We insert the new battery into the compartment and close the cover, insert the key into the remote control and the top part.
