Check that the charging warning
lamp in the instrument panel is
on fixed.
Fast charging stops automatically when
the battery is around 80 % charged.
It is possible to attain a level of 100 %
charged by restar ting the procedure.
However, the time taken by this
additional charge will be relatively long,
as the charging rate is reduced. During the fast charge, the vehicle's air
conditioning may star t automatically,
if needed to cool the main battery. It is
therefore per fectly normal to hear the
noise of a fan running from outside the
vehicle and to see a puddle of water
form under the vehicle. As a safety measure, the motor will
not star t when the charging cable is
connected to the vehicle's socket.
Also, any attempt to star t the motor
interrupts the charging procedure. It
will then be necessary to disconnect
and reconnect the charging cable
plug to continue charging, following
the instructions for using the charging
station.
If the ambient temperature is below
0 °C, the charging time may be longer.
If the ambient temperature is
below -25 °C, charging may not be
possible. If this is not the case, charging has not star ted;
check the operating instructions for the
charging station.
)
The charging warning lamp in the
instrument panel goes off when charging
has finished.
Disconnect the charging cable following
the instructions for the charging terminal.
)
Close the charging socket cover and the
flap.
After charging, close the charging
socket cover and flap.
Take care to avoid the ingress of water
or dust to the socket and its cover
or the charging plug. Risk of fire or
electrocution.
Vehicle out of use for a long
period
When your vehicle is going to be
out of use for a long period, charge
the main battery completely every
three months (following the normal
charging procedure).
Before charging, check that
the ancillaries battery is not
disconnected or discharged. If this
is the case, refer to the "ancillaries
battery" section for reconnecting or
charging the battery.

Ancillaries battery
All of the electrical components of your vehicle
(other than the electric motor, the heating and
the air conditioning) are powered by this 12 V
ancillaries battery.
It is located in the front compar tment and is
recharged by the main battery, during phases
of operation ("Ready" lamp on in the instrument
panel) and charging.
If the ancillaries battery is discharged,
it will not be possible to star t the
motor and the main battery cannot be
charged.

Access to the battery
Disconnecting the battery is not
recommended.
However, if the vehicle is not to be
used for a prolonged period of more
than a month, it may be necessary to
disconnect and store it to avoid the
electrolyte freezing.
After prolonged disconnection of the
battery, you must contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop to have
the electronic control unit reinitialised.
