Steps for battery removal and installation: 1. Engage the parking brake, place the transmission in neutral, turn the ignition switch to the off position, ensure lights, air conditioning, etc., are turned off to disconnect all electrical devices from the power source; 2. Open the engine hood, remove the battery cables in the order of negative first then positive, i.e., first disconnect the ground wire from the negative terminal, then disconnect the starter cable from the positive terminal, remove the fixing bolts and take out the battery; 3. When installing the battery, place it steadily, secure the fixing bolts first, then install the battery cables; 4. The cable installation order is positive first then negative, i.e., first connect the starter positive cable, then connect the negative ground wire to prevent the wrench from falling and causing a short circuit discharge; 5. When installing the battery, also ensure the battery terminal surfaces are clean before installation, the terminals are firmly and reliably connected, and avoid striking the terminals to prevent acid leakage due to terminal loosening.
