To replace the battery on a Citroen DS5, open the bonnet and locate the battery in the engine bay, usually protected by a plastic cover. Remove the cover to access the terminals.

First, loosen the negative terminal and disconnect it, then loosen the positive terminal and disconnect it. Undo the bracket or support that holds the battery in place and carefully remove it from the bay. Place the new battery in the same housing and secure it with the bracket.

Connect the positive terminal first and then the negative, ensuring they are tight.

Replace the protective cover and close the bonnet. Start the vehicle to check that everything works correctly.
