Starting using another battery
Never try to start the engine by
connecting a battery charger.
Never use a 24 V or higher battery
b o o s t e r.
First check that the slave battery has a
nominal voltage of 12 V and a capacity
at least equal to that of the discharged
battery.
The two vehicles must not be in contact
with each other.
Switch off the electrical consumers on
both vehicles (audio system, wipers,
lighting, ...).
Ensure that the jump lead cables do
not pass close to moving parts of the
engine (cooling fan, belts, ...).
Do not disconnect the (+) terminal when
the engine is running.
When your vehicle's battery is discharged, the
engine can be started using a slave battery
(external or on another vehicle) and jump lead
cables or a battery booster.

If you envisage charging your vehicle's
battery yourself, use only a charger
compatible with lead-acid batteries of a
nominal voltage of 12 V.
If this label is present, it is essential
to use only a 12 V charger, to avoid
causing irreversible damage to the
electrical components related to the
Stop & Start system.Never try to charge a frozen battery.
If the battery has been frozen, have
it checked by a CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop, who will check
that the internal components have not
been damaged and the casing is not
cracked, which could cause a leak of
toxic and corrosive acid.
Charging the battery using a battery charger
For optimum service life of the battery, it is
essential to maintain an adequate state of
charge.
In some circumstances it may be necessary to
charge the battery:
-

i
f you use your vehicle essentially for short
journeys,
-

i
f the vehicle is to be taken off the road for
several weeks.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop. It is not necessary to disconnect the
battery. Follow the instructions for use provided
by the manufacturer of the charger.
Never reverse polarities.

In the event of a breakdown

295
In order to maintain an adequate state
of charge for starting the engine, it is
recommended that the battery be disconnected
if the vehicle is taken out of service for a long
period.
Before disconnecting the battery:
F
c
lose all openings (doors, boot, windows),
F

s
witch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, wipers, lighting, etc.),

four
m

inutes.
At the battery, it is only necessary to
disconnect the (+) terminal.
Disconnecting the battery
The Stop & Start system may not be
operational during the trip following the
first engine start.
In this case, the system will only be
available again after a continuous
period of immobilisation of the vehicle,
a period which depends on the exterior
temperature and the state of charge of
the battery (up to about 8 hours).
F

Following reconnection of the
battery
After reconnecting the battery, switch on the
ignition and wait 1 minute before starting to
allow initialisation of the electronic systems.
However, if minor problems persist following
this operation, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Referring to the corresponding section, you

Engines
Engine characteristics
The engine characteristics (capacity, maximum
power, maximum engine speed, fuel, CO
2
emissions, etc.) for your vehicle are given in
the registration document, as well as in sales
brochures.
These characteristics correspond to the
values type-approved on a test bed, under
conditions defined in European legislation
(Directive
1

999/99/EC).
For more information, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Weights
Weights and towed loads
The maximum weights and towed loads for your
vehicle are given are given in the registration
document, as well as in sales brochures.
These values are also present on the
manufacturer's plate or label.
For more information, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
The kerb weight is equal to the unladen
weight
+ driver (75 kg).
The GTW and towed load values indicated
apply up to a maximum altitude of
1
000 metres; the towed load mentioned
must be reduced by 10 % for every additional
1
000 metres.
The weight of the braked trailer can be
increased, within the GTW limit, on condition
that the GV W of the towing vehicle is reduced
by the same amount.
The recommended nose weight is the vertical
load on the towbar ball (removable with or
without tools).
GV W:

g
ross vehicle weight, the maximum
authorised vehicle weight.
GT W:

g
ross train weight, the maximum
authorised weight of vehicle plus trailer. High exterior temperatures may result
in a reduction in the per formance of
the vehicle to protect the engine; when
the exterior temperature is higher than
37
°C, limit the towed weight.
If the exterior temperature is high, it
is recommended that the engine be
allowed to idle for 1 to 2 minutes after
the vehicle comes to a stop, to facilitate
its cooling. Towing with a lightly loaded vehicle can
adversely affect roadholding.
Braking distances are increased when
towing a trailer.
Never exceed 60 mph (100 km/h) when
towing (comply with the legislation in
force in your country).
