The battery is located in the rear trunk, just under the carpeted shelf; lift the carpeted shelf, disconnect the end-of-travel cables, and remove the underlying cover that also serves as a storage compartment: at this point, you can already see the battery.

Next, unscrew the bolts of the upper mounting bracket and remove it along with the plastic cover.

Disconnect the battery vent tube (ensuring it is not blocked), then unscrew the terminal clamps and the lower mounting bracket. Finally, pull out the old battery and insert the new one, reversing the steps for reassembly (apply grease to the terminals to prevent oxidation).
