Is your air con working? nearly all cars fans are on in warm-hot weather if you had a Golf they run marathons when they kick in but heater should be a stabilized temp from the controls if not it could be a matrix issue ?
Changing battery is straight forward (You tube vids if unsure) & the car should be ok for the radio to reinitialise once power is restored
