The CR2430 will last at least 5 years in a game. The storage life is about 10 years. I'd probably start thinking of replacing after the 5th year. They won't leak like alkaline batteries so no worries there.
If you want to retain settings change with the power on. Changing with the power off will lose settings. I wouldn't use any tools when changing the batteries and you'll be fine with the power on.
