    • Ensure the vehicle is turned off before accessing the battery.

    • Remove the negative terminal first, followed by the positive terminal. Removing the positive terminal first could result in a direct short to the ground.

    • Use your 10-millimeter wrench to remove the hex nuts on the negative terminal. (Image 1)

    • Once the negative terminal's hex nut is removed, we can tuck the negative terminal and cable beside the battery. (Image 2)

    • Repeat these two steps for the positive terminal.
