Key fob battery

2017 D5 Si6
Can I replace the battery in the key fob. It seems to be weak. Other key fob is better. Thanks

Mine's different. You have to remove the manual key first, then gently pry the case apart to access the battery. Everything then snaps together once replaced.

Thanks guys, I now remember doing this a few years ago. Yes that is correct: remove manual key then pry case apart.
I was up in the mountains and didn't have a chance to look this up before posting my question.
