How do I program my key remote?

I have a 96 S class and need to program my key after getting a new battery. How is this done?

1 Point window in remote control key at a receiver.

2 Press button momentarily.

3 Lock or unlock vehicle within next 30 seconds with folding key in remote control key in lock cylinder. The remote control should once again be operational.

I changed my key battery, but since then the little red light within the key stopped blinking. Is this normal or should the red light must blink no matter if the key is sync'ed or not?

Thanks

Push button for at least 1 second. Batteries are in order if diode in outlet window lights briefly.
