Not sure if your remote looks like this....
If so, here are the instructions:
1) Press the button and remove the metal key.
2) Inside you will find another grey button. Push it inward (using the metal key). The metal key will sit on a groove and you can see the piece spring back and forth and you push inward. With the buttons facing you, you'll be pushing inward to the left. Simultaneously, as the grey piece is pushed in, use your thumbnail into the grove and push upward. You'll see the top portion separate and you'll find the battery compartment.
Hope this helps.
