Pretty much as soon as you reconnect the battery, press the fob 4 times (or the lock button if you have a 2 button remote) in order to re-sync the units.

For ease of use, make sure the bonnet and doors are closed, and disconnect the alarm sensor (courtesy switch) in the boot, as arming the alarm with the boot open will make it go off.

For future reference, this worked for me. It's written in the manual too. =)
