BATTERY
Procedure for charging your battery
when it is fl at or for starting the engine
using another battery.
Access to the battery Starting using another battery

 Connect the red cable to the posi-
tive terminal (+) of the fl at battery A ,
then to the positive terminal (+) of
the slave battery B .

 Connect one end of the green or
black cable to the negative termi-
nal (-) of the slave battery B .

 Connect the other end of the green
or black cable to the earth point C
on your vehicle (engine mounting).

 Operate the starter, let the engine
run.

 Wait until the engine returns to idle
and disconnect the cables.
The battery is located under the bonnet.
To gain access to it:

 open the bonnet using the interior
lever, then the exterior lever,

 secure the bonnet strut,

 remove the plastic cover to gain ac-
cess to the two terminals,

 unclip the fuse box to remove the
battery, if necessary.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
185
Do not disconnect the termi-
nals while the engine is run-
ning.
Do not charge the batteries
without disconnecting the ter-
minals fi rst.
Do not push the vehicle to start the
engine if it is fi tted with a 6-speed
piloted manual gearbox or an auto-
matic gearbox.
The batteries contain harmful
substances such as sulphuric
acid and lead. They must be
disposed of in accordance with regu-
lations and must not, in any circum-
stances, be discarded with household
waste.
Take used remote control batteries
and vehicle batteries to a special col-
lection point.
Charging the battery using a
battery charger

 Disconnect the battery from the ve-
hicle.

 Follow the instructions for use pro-
vided by the manufacturer of the
charger.

 Reconnect starting with the nega-
tive terminal (-).

 Check that the terminals and connec-
tors are clean. If they are covered with
sulphate (whitish or greenish deposit),
remove them and clean them. At the risk of discharging the bat-
tery, the deactivated functions
can be reactivated manually. LOAD REDUCTION MODE
System which manages the use of cer-
tain functions in relation to the level of
charge remaining in the battery.
When the vehicle is being driven, the
load reduction function temporarily deac-
tivates certain functions, such as the air
conditioning, the rear screen de-icing...
The deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically as soon as conditions
permit.
It is advisable to disconnect
the battery if the vehicle is to
be left unused for more than
one month. Before disconnecting the battery
Wait 2 minutes after switching off the igni-
tion before disconnecting the battery.
Close the windows and the doors before
disconnecting the battery.
Following reconnection of the
battery
Following reconnection of the battery,
switch on the ignition and wait 1 minute
before starting to permit initialisation
of the electronic systems. However, if
slight diffi culties are encountered follow-
ing this operation, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Referring to the corresponding section,
you must yourself reinitialise:
- the remote control key,
- the glass panoramic roof shutter,
- the GPS satellite navigation system.
ENERGY ECONOMY MODE
System which manages the duration of
use of certain functions to conserve a
suffi cient level of charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can
still use functions such as the audio and
telematics system, windscreen wipers,
dipped headlamps, courtesy lights, etc.
for a maximum combined duration of
thirty minutes.
Switching to economy mode
Once the thirty minutes are over, a
message appears on the multi-function
display indicating that the vehicle has
switched to economy mode and the ac-
tive functions are put on standby.

Let the engine run for the
duration specifi ed to ensure
that the battery charge is suf-
fi cient.
Do not repeatedly and continuously
restart the engine in order to charge
the battery.
A fl at battery prevents the engine
from starting (refer to the "Battery"
paragraph). If the telephone is being used
at this time:
- it will be maintained for 5 minutes with the hands-free kit of your PC
Sound or PC Nav,
- it will still be possible to fi nish the call with the PC Com 3D.
Exiting economy mode
These functions are reactivated auto
matically next time the vehicle is driven.

 In order to resume the use of these
functions immediately, start the en-
gine and let it run:
- for less than ten minutes, to use the equipment for approximately
fi ve minutes,
- for more than ten minutes, to use the equipment for up to approxi-
mately thirty minutes.

Procedure for replacing a worn wiper
blade with a new one without the use
of tools.
Removing a front or rear wiper
blade

 Raise the corresponding wiper arm.

 Unclip the wiper blade and remove it. Fitting a front or rear wiper
blade

 At the front, check the size of the
wiper blade as the shorter blade is
fi tted on the right-hand side of the
vehicle.

 Put the corresponding new wiper
blade in place and clip it.

 Fold down the wiper arm carefully.
Before removing a front wiper
blade

 Within one minute after switching off
the ignition, operate the wipers stalk
to position the wiper blades in the
centre of the windscreen. After fitting a front wiper blade

 Switch on the ignition.
