Newb Needing Help w/key Fob Battery

OK, when I say newb I am serious! We picked up our new to us TL last night (20011 w/21k on the clock), and this morning the information light says the battery needs replacing on the fob. I opened the Owners Manual and mine doesn't have a small screw like it describes. Bothe Fobs are identical. I can remove the key, but see now way to open the fob itself. HELP!

Yes, it was very easy.

I'm looking forward to becoming an active member on this forum. I have a Mazda Miata Speed, (turbo charged) and I am very active on that forum.

We absolutely love this car, but we are still learning all the nuances of XML radio, and the navigation system.
