You will have to open the frunk (if your car has the electrical opening device, check your handbook for correct procedure), then remove the cover over the battery.
To charge the battery connect red cable connector to + and black cable connector to -.
NOTE: use a battery charger and not a battery tender (maintainer).
Thanks for the tip Steve. Are there any other alternatives?

And I'd say the battery is fairly old but I'd like to get some more life out of it yet before I buy another one.
