How do you change the battery in an ARC LS28 remote?

I've done searches on the Internet and have emailed ARC twice with no reply. The website says the faceplate is held on by magnets. There are no screws. How do I get in this remote? Thanks

Using a magnet might work. I'm sure there is some simple proper way to open it up if I can just figure it out or hopefully someone on this forum might know and help me out.

I sent an email to the service center last night and they responded within the hour to tell me someone would get in touch soon to solve the problem. They did and the cover comes off with a little suction cup that was supplied with the remote. It just takes a second and it pops right off. Then you just change batteries reassemble and that's it. It takes about a minute. Great system. I went up in the attic to retrieve the box and inside was the suction cup and instructions on how to change the battery. I never cease to amaze myself.....LOL
