Nissan Versa: Do-it-yourself - Battery replacement
WARNING
- Ingestion hazard: Death or severe physical injury can occur immediately if a small battery is swallowed.
- A swallowed button cell or coin-type battery can cause severe internal chemical burns and tissue destruction in as little as 2 hours.
- Always keep both new and used replacement batteries strictly out of the reach of infants and children.
- Be extremely careful not to allow children or household pets to swallow any small removed components or parts.
- Seek immediate emergency medical attention if you suspect that a battery has been swallowed or inserted into any part of the human body.
- For urgent medical treatment information and guidance, call the National battery ingestion hotline at 1-800-498-8666.
- There is an extreme danger of explosion if the miniature battery is replaced incorrectly. Always replace the battery using only the exact same type or an equivalent approved type. Incorrectly replacing the battery can lead to serious personal injury or death.
- Do not crush, puncture, or cut the battery casing.
- Do not subject the battery to extremely low air pressure environments at high altitudes.
- Do not expose the battery to excessive external heat sources such as direct sunlight, open fire, or similar high-temperature environments.
CAUTION

- When changing miniature key fob batteries, take care not to let dust, dirt, or oil get onto the delicate internal electronic components.
NISSAN Intelligent Key

NISSAN INTELLIGENT KEY (if so equipped)
If your Nissan Versa is equipped with an Intelligent Key fob, you can replace the internal battery by following these simple steps:
1. Release and remove the mechanical emergency key from the main Intelligent Key housing.
2. Insert a small flathead screwdriver designated as A into the corner slit B and gently twist it to separate the upper casing part from the lower casing part. It is recommended to place a soft cloth over the tip of the screwdriver to protect the plastic casing from scratching.

3. Take out the old battery and replace it with a fresh new one.
The recommended replacement battery type is CR2032 or an equivalent cell.
- Do not touch the delicate internal circuit board or electrical contact terminals with your fingers, as doing so could cause a permanent device malfunction.
- Always hold the coin battery strictly by its outer edges. Holding the battery flat across its top and bottom contact points will seriously deplete its electrical storage capacity.
- Make sure that the positive (+) side of the battery faces downward toward the bottom of the lower housing part.
4. Snap the plastic cover lid back together securely as illustrated with points C and D .
5. Operate the lock and unlock buttons to verify that the key fob functions correctly.
If you require professional assistance for key fob battery replacement on your Nissan Versa, it is recommended that you visit an authorized NISSAN dealer for this service.
