Press the silver button to extract the manual key from the remote. Now, using a small flat screwdriver or any pointed tool, pry in the slot near the "MINI" inscription, as shown in the video.

This will allow you to remove the remote's cover with the inscription, and you can then remove the other cover using the same method, prying in the central space with the flat screwdriver. Once this cover is removed, you will finally see the key battery, which you can easily extract and replace with a new one. Good luck!
