In this video, see how to replace the battery in a Volvo V40. Open the front bonnet, remove the panel at the centre of the front fascia, take out the air intake for the filter, loosen the clamp to disconnect the outlet hose from the filter box, and then disassemble it into its three parts.

Remove the plate with the wiring above the battery, isolating the terminals for safety, disconnect the negative and positive terminals, and unclip the fuse box from its housing.

You can now remove the old battery, take off the perimeter protection, and refit it onto the new battery, which you will position in its housing after cleaning it. Start reassembling the various components in reverse order to disassembly.
