Hi:
First remove the neg cable from the battery then the positive. Make sure not to touch both battery terminals at the same time with anything that will conduct electricity. It will short. Next remove the battery hold down, finally the battery. Reverse the order to replace it.
Let me know if this helps.

I was told by a mechanic that before disconnecting the
cables of the battery, the cables must be connected to
another battery to prevent memory loss.
