To replace the battery on the Kia Ceed, open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay. The battery is located here, directly beneath the air filter; to access the battery, you will need to remove the air filter box. Once this is removed, unscrew the bolts securing the battery in its housing and disconnect the power cables.

After the device is freed, replace it with a new one.
