You need to use one finger to push the grey switch towards the back, and then push the bottom black part to the outside. Hope this helps!

At the opposite end from the silver on/off switch there is a tab sticking out...press down on the tab and the battery cover will open.

Thank you for contacting us.In order for you to open the safe you will need to take off the little plastic cover between the handle and the number pad (can be done with a slotted screwdriver.) After doing so you can use you key to manually open the safe and replace your batteries.

To open the battery compartment. The way this baby goes through batteries you are going to use it a lot.

If I remember right, you had to open the battery door thingy and there was a piece of plastic that you needed to pull out. I could be wrong though. Otherwise maybe try pressing the reset button? Just an idea.

Turn it bottom up. Then look for a square depression in the plastic bottom. Look real close in good light and you will see an symbol that shows what direction to push and slide to open the compartment for the battery.

Use a eyeglass screwdriver or something similar and insert it into the notch on the bottom front the remote. Gently pry it open to access the batteries.

There are two little tabs on the back side for two battery locations. Just pull on the tabs and it will open.

Press the bottom door down till a small gap appears above and use your fingers to open it. Its tricky. Then installing the battery is simple. The top is positive and the bottom is negative.. Push the battery in but be careful not to push it all the way towards the back, just enough it makes contact within the housing. Close cover and enjoy! :)

Can't help. I returned it because I couldn't even figure out how to open the battery compartment!

I came here looking for an answer to the same question, and A J's helped me get started. But, after looking at the battery compartment more closely, I learned that the trick is to CAREFULLY bend (push more than bend) the metal prongs opposite the plastic clip, and then press down on the edge of the battery nearest the plastic clip - the battery will tilt slightly sideways and you can lift it out.

The battery compartment on mine is actually quite easy to open. I can just slip my nails in the crack at the top back and push slightly and it slips right off. You could also use the tip of a butter knife or something similar to slip in the crack and nudge it open, then it will simply slide off. To get it back on, make sure you line up the top up level and slide it right up through the little plastic "holders" that are on both sides.

Sadly, my husband and I could NOT even get the battery compartment open...despite several tools. We gave up!

It is really hard to open! On one side of the battery cover there is a little tab and you push it over toward the center and you pull the cover back at the same time! You can push the little tab over with a small straight screwdriver if you can't get to it with your finger!

On the under side of the scale there should be a slot. You can use a quarter to insert in the slot and rotate it to expose the battery. I just use my nail (which is very short) to pull the battery out. If the nail doesn't work a butter knife should do the trick.

There is a small Phillips head screw on the blue handle. Remove it but be careful not to lose it. The blue handle will then slide off revealing the battery compartment.
