LG StanbyME comes with one of two remote types: a standard remote that does not attach to the screen, or a flat mini remote that attaches magnetically to the edge of the screen.
To replace the batteries in the standard remote, slide open the back cover and replace the AA batteries. To replace the battery in the mini remote, remove the bottom cover, loosen the safety screw with a Phillips screwdriver, and replace the CR2032 coin battery.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Q. How Can I Tell Which Battery My Remote Uses Without Opening the Cover?
-
A. If your remote attaches magnetically to the edge of the StanbyME screen, it uses a flat CR2032 coin battery.
If your remote does not attach magnetically and is thicker, it uses AA batteries.
- Q. Why Does the Mini Remote Have a Screw Inside?
-
A. The mini remote uses a cover and a screw to keep the small CR2032 coin battery from coming out. This helps prevent young children from swallowing the battery.
After you replace the battery, always tighten the screw again.
