Ford Fusion: Remote Control / Replacing the Battery

Note: Refer to local regulations when disposing of your remote control batteries.

Note: Do not wipe off any grease on the battery terminals or on the back surface of the circuit board.

Note: Replacing the battery does not erase the programmed key from your vehicle. Your remote control should operate normally.

A message appears in the information display when the remote control battery is low.

The remote control uses one coin-type three-volt lithium battery.

3. Insert a suitable tool, for example a screwdriver, in the position shown and carefully remove the battery.
4. Install a new battery with the + facing upward.
5. Reinstall the battery cover and the key blade.
