Thanks so much! I had a terrible time searching for how to do this. I had a CX-5 but my new CX-8 has this type of key fob and wanted to avoid a trip to the dealer and pay for a CR2032 battery as I have a pack of them at home already. One happy Australian here! Stay safe.
All, I dropped my CX-5 diesel. It was 7 years old and I had enjoyed the response from the punchy engine. However, it kept getting engine oil light errors (120,000km travelled) and Mazda Australia offered to replace the short block for free- seems this is a fault with the diesels - at least the...

Think of a USB stick as a fragile device. I have worked in IT Support for 20 years and they fail regularly. On a Windows Computer you would (or should) use the "safe unplug" feature. On your Car I suggest you turn the motor completely off before unplugging.
Just my 2c worth. Have a big range...
