The method to replace the key battery for the New Magotan: First, take out the spare mechanical key, then remove the silver decoration below the key. Push horizontally towards the hidden button side with your thumb to remove the silver decorative cover. Open the rear cover of the key, pry open the back cover of the key, remove the old battery, replace it with a new one, and then reassemble following the original steps. The battery life of a car remote key is approximately 3 years. When the battery runs out, you need to open the key shell to replace it with a new battery. The New Magotan has a body size of 4866mm in length, 1832mm in width, and 1464mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2812mm. This model is equipped with 8 airbags, including full-size airbags for the driver and front passenger, side airbags for the front seats, rear side airbags, and front-to-rear through-type head dual air curtains.
As someone who frequently helps friends with such minor issues, let me explain how to replace the battery in a new Magotan key fob. First, prepare a small tool like a flathead screwdriver or plastic pry bar—avoid anything too sharp to prevent scratching the shell. The key fob usually consists of two halves; locate a seam on the side or bottom and gently pry it open, being careful not to use excessive force to avoid breaking the clips. Once opened, you'll see the battery compartment, typically housing a CR2032 coin cell. Note the orientation of the old battery (usually flat side up), then carefully remove and discard it. Purchase a new CR2032 battery (very affordable at supermarkets), insert it in the same orientation, and listen for a 'click' to confirm it's secure. Reassemble the key fob by pressing the halves firmly together, then test the unlock and start functions to ensure everything works. The whole process takes just minutes and becomes effortless with practice. Remember, the battery lasts 2-3 years—avoid water exposure and keep it dry to extend its lifespan.
