Press the side button on the remote to extract the manual spare key from the remote (this key is used if the battery is flat and you cannot open the vehicle). Now, after obtaining a small flathead screwdriver, remove the cover on the key fob by prying it open in the gap. Once done, you can also remove the other cover underneath, again using the small screwdriver as shown in the video.

Voila! Here is the key battery ready to be replaced.
