I have a Philips cd/radio/tape player. I've had it for years. It came with a small thin remote control. The remote doesn't seem to work anymore. I assume it mist have some type of tiny battery in it? I have a manual for it, but it's thick and the print is very small. Can anyone tell from the pictures if it does take a battery, and if so, what kind and how do I get it out? Thanks.

Yes it does. There is a tab you can pull out at the bottom of the back side of the remote. Just below the "Release"-text and the instructional picture showing how to pull the tab out. The battery is mentioned as a CR2025 type, the slim kind usually found in watches.

Here is the website of the manual showing how to replace the remote battery:
