Where is the battery located in the Mini Countryman?

Model: Mini Mini R60, Countryman1 - Years 2010-2016
Part: Battery

The battery of the Mini Countryman car is located inside the front hood, specifically next to the air duct and air filter box. In case maintenance is required on the battery, it is necessary to lift the lever located on the bottom left of the dashboard, in order to open the hood. Lock the hood using the side rod and proceed with the maintenance. Replacing the battery is a simple operation because on this type of car it is enough to disconnect the terminal, first the negative and then the positive to remove the battery. By inserting a new battery and connecting the terminals, everything will work correctly again.
