I have no DIY/technical skills whatsoever, but you can book The AA to come and do car batteries on your drive (and a few other providers)... just in case you don't fancy going to the dealer or Halfords!

Battery is no problem to change. The hardest part is opening the side panel on the right of the boot.

You don't need to access the battery. You can charge it by connecting to the jump-start connectors under the bonnet.

To CHARGE it, there are charging terminals under the bonnet…. To CHANGE it, you have to take it out.

I changed my battery. It wasn't too hard of a job. I did not have to tell the car anything.
I didn't have an extension long enough to reach the top nut holding the retainer bracket. I loosed the bottom nut and bent the retainer up and made the swap, no issues.
