Replacing the battery in a Toyota RAV4 is a very simple and quick operation. Ensure the key is not inserted, then open the bonnet, unclip the various rivets of the front plate, and undo the two nuts of the battery mounting bracket using a 10mm spanner.

Once done, with the same spanner, loosen the nuts on both terminals and disconnect them, starting with the negative terminal. At this point, you can remove the old battery and insert the new one, reconnecting the positive terminal first.
