How to change the battery of a Citroen Xsara Picasso

Model: Citroen Xsara Picasso MK 1 - Years 1999-2012
Part: Battery

In the video in question, we see how to replace the battery of a Citroen Xsara Picasso car. In this car model, the battery is located under the driver's seat, so in order to remove it, we will need to tilt the seat. Remove the headrest and then push simultaneously on the two metal tabs on the sides of the seat supports, and rotate the seat forward. Then use a socket wrench to unscrew the two nuts that secure the bar on the battery and then remove it; proceed by disconnecting the clamp with the negative pole and only then the one with the positive pole. At this point, you can remove the exhausted battery and proceed with its replacement. In this case, remember to connect the positive pole first and then the negative one.
