To replace the battery in a Mercedes GLC, turn off the engine and remove the electronic key. Open the hood and locate the battery, usually positioned on the front right or left side of the engine compartment, protected by a plastic cover. Remove the cover and disconnect the negative (-) terminal first, then the positive (+) terminal with an appropriate wrench.

Unscrew the mounting bracket at the base of the battery and carefully remove it. Insert the new battery into the same housing, secure it with the bracket, and connect the positive (+) terminal first, then the negative (-). Reattach the cover and check the proper functioning of the vehicle and electronic systems.
