How to replace the key battery of a first series Smart.

Model: Smart Smart 450 - Years 1998-2007
Part: Key

To replace the battery of the remote control of a first series Smart (Smart 450) it is necessary to carry out some simple steps. To start, as shown in the video at minute 0: 10, we have to pry with a screwdriver in the gap between the two parts of the remote control shell; by doing so, we will be able to open it. Once opened we will find the support of the circuits; the battery holder is installed on it. We remove the old battery and replace it with the new one. At the end of the operation, reinsert the circuits and close the two plastic parts of the remote control with a light pressure.
