I get the message 'Batterinivå låg' (Low battery) on my card reader display. How do I change batteries?

As long as you use the card reader with the cable attached, the battery is not used at all. When you use the card reader without cable, it is powered by two CR2032 3 volt batteries. (The audio version is powered by two AAA batteries.) By normal usage, the batteries should last for approximately five years. You change the batteries yourself by using a small star chisel. The batteries are under the hatch on the back of the card reader. You will find these batteries in any technology-oriented shop.
