Once the front panel has been removed, you will see something like the picture below. To replace the battery, disconnect the two wire from the old battery's posts. Then connect the wire the corresponding coloured posts on the new battery (red to red, black to black). Place the battery on shelf where the old battery rested then replace the front panel. You are done.
