How do you open a Mazda 5 key fob?

I think there’s something stuck in my key fob, but I need to open it up to clean it out. Can you tell me how to open a Mazda 5 key fob?

Yikes, that sounds frustrating. We’ll walk you through everything you need to know about how to open your
Mazda 5
key fob.
First things first, push the silver button on the front side of your key fob to release your emergency key from the fob. Then, use a small flathead screwdriver and insert it on the side, where the emergency key meets the key fob.
Use light force to push down, and gently pull the emergency key from the fob—this should take the top half of the fob with the
Mazda
logo with it.
You can set the top part of the key fob aside for the time being and just focus on the bottom. Pick up your flathead screwdriver, insert it in the seam where the front panel of the fob meets the rear panel, and give it a light twist. That should pop the key fob right open!
