How to Replace the Battery in a Citroën C3 Picasso

Model: Citroen C3 Picasso MK 1 - Years 2008-2017
Part: Battery

To replace the battery in a Citroën C3 Picasso, open the bonnet and locate the battery in the engine bay, generally covered by a plastic cover. Remove the cover by unclipping it. Using a 10 mm spanner, disconnect the negative (-) terminal first and then the positive (+). Loosen the lower mounting bracket that secures the battery to the base and remove it. Extract the battery by lifting it vertically. Insert the new battery in the same orientation, reposition and tighten the mounting bracket. Reconnect the positive terminal first and then the negative, ensuring the terminals are securely tightened. Refit the cover and check the vehicle's starting.
