BATTERY
Procedure for charging your battery
when it is fl at or for starting the en-
gine using another battery. Access to the battery
The battery is located under the
bonnet.
To gain access to it:

 open the bonnet using the interi-
or release lever, then the exterior
safety catch,

 secure the bonnet stay,

 remove the plastic cover to gain
access to the two terminals,

 unclip the fusebox to remove the
battery, if necessary.
Do not force the lever as tighten-
ing will not be possible of the clip is
positioned incorrectly.
Start the procedure again.
Disconnecting/Reconnecting
the cables

The presence of this label,
in particular with the Stop
& Start system, indicates
the use of a 12 V lead-acid
battery with special technology
and specifi cation, for which the in-
volvement of a CITROËN dealer is
required when replacing or discon-
necting the battery.
Failure to observe this recommen-
dation may cause premature wear
of the battery.
After refi tting the battery, the Stop
& Start system will only be active
after a continuous period of immo-
bilisation of the vehicle, a period
which depends on the climatic con-
ditions and the state of charge of
the battery (up to about 8 hours).
 Raise the locking lever 1 fully.

 Position the open clip of the ca-
ble on the positive (+) terminal of
the battery.

 Press vertically on the clip 2 to
position it correctly against the
battery.

 Tighten the clip by lowering the

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 beam headlamps,
courtesy lamps, etc. for a maximum
combined duration of thirty minutes.
Switching to economy mode
Once this period has elapsed, a
message appears on the multi-func-
tion screen indicating that the vehi-
cle has switched to economy mode
and the active functions are put on
standby.
If a telephone call is being made at
this time:
- it will be maintained for 10 minu-tes with your Audio system or
MyWay hands-free system
- it will be maintained for 10 minu- tes with the NaviDrive, then it will
transfer to your telephone de-
pending on its model. Exiting economy mode
These functions are reactivated au-
tomatically next time the vehicle is
started.
To resume the use of these functions
immediately, start the engine and let
it run for at least 5 minutes.
A fl at battery prevents the
engine from starting (refer
to the corresponding para-
graph).
Following reconnection of the
battery
Following reconnection of the bat-
tery, switch on the ignition and wait
1 minute before starting to permit
initialisation of the electronic sys-
tems. However, if slight diffi culties
are encountered following this oper-
ation, contact a CITROËN dealer.
Referring to the corresponding sec-
tion, you must yourself reinitialise:
- the remote control key,
- the one-touch electric windows,
- the panoramic sunroof blind,
- the settings of the multifunction
screen,
- the radio pre-set stations,
- the GPS satellite navigation system. This period may be reduced con-
siderably if the battery is not fully
charged.
