- Activate Remote Pairing: While the lock is in pairing mode, press and hold the designated pairing button on the ARREGUI CI10-ALRC remote control. (Note: The specific button for pairing may vary; typically, it's one of the main function buttons or a small recessed button. Consult the lock's manual for exact remote pairing instructions.)

- Insert New Battery: Insert a new CR2032 3V lithium battery, ensuring the correct polarity.
- Close Compartment: Securely close the battery compartment.
- Test: Test the remote control with your lock to confirm functionality.
