To replace the battery on your vehicle, you need to know that the battery is located under the floor inside the passenger compartment. To access it, sit in the driver's seat and start unscrewing the clips securing the carpet on the passenger side floor, then lift it. Underneath, there is a polystyrene base that comes with a key for removal.

Under this panel, you will find the battery; proceed to unscrew the negative terminal first, then the positive. Take the new battery and place it in the housing, reconnect the positive terminal followed by the negative.
