Replacing the Battery in a Mercedes A-Class

Model: Mercedes Classe A W168 - Years 1997-2004
Part: Battery

Is the battery in your Mercedes A-Class dead? Can't start the car? Replace the battery. Open the car door and slide the passenger seat back; the battery is under the front mat (in other cars, it is usually located in the engine compartment). Remove the mat and the plastic cover from the battery. Start loosening the battery terminal bolts with a socket wrench. Remove the old battery using the plastic handle and install a new one, tightening the power terminals. Close the battery compartment and cover it with the mat.
