BATTERY: troubleshooting (3/4)
Special procedures may be
required to charge some
batteries. Contact your ap-
proved Dealer.
Avoid all risk of sparks which may
cause an immediate explosion and
charge the battery in a well-venti -
lated area. Risk of serious injury.
If your vehicle is to be left stationary for
a relatively long time, disconnect the
battery or have it recharged regularly,
particularly during cold weather. It will
then be necessary, with the engine run-
ning, to move the steering wheel slowly,
from lock to lock and to reprogram the
electronic equipment with a memory
feature, radio, etc. The battery should
be stored in a cool and dry location pro-
tected from frost.
Note: if you have disconnected or re -
charged a battery, move the steering
wheel slowly from lock to lock to reset
the system.
Have the battery’s charge status
checked regularly:
–
especially if you use your vehicle for
short journeys or for frequent driving
in town;
– when the exterior temperature drops
(in winter), the charge decreases .
In winter, only use the electrical
equipment that is really necessary;
– finally, you should understand that
the charge decreases naturally as a
result of certain permanent electrical
consumers such as the clock, after-
sales accessories, etc.
When many accessories are fitted to
the vehicle, have them connected to
the + after ignition feed. In this case, it
is advisable to have your vehicle fitted
with a battery which has an increased
nominal capacity. Contact an approved
Dealer.Connecting a battery charger
The battery charger must be com -
patible with a battery with nominal
voltage of 12 volts.
Switch the engine off and then discon -
nect both battery leads starting with
the negative terminal.
Do not disconnect the battery when the
engine is running. Follow the instruc-
tions given by the manufacturer for
the battery charger you are using.
Only a fully charged and well-main -
tained battery will have a long and
useful life and enable you to start the
vehicle’s engine normally.
The battery must be kept clean and dry.

Insert the key in the ignition switch, or
the card in the reader, to unlock the
steering wheel and use the signalling
lights (brake lights, hazard warning
lights, etc.). The towed vehicle’s lights
must be switched on at night.
The speed specified by current legis -
lation for towing must always be ob -
served. If your vehicle is the towing
vehicle, do not exceed the maximum
towing weight for your vehicle (refer
to the information on “Weights” in
Section 6).
Only use:– at the rear, towing point 4 (depend-
ing on the vehicle);
– at the front, towing hitch 3 (never
the drive shafts).
These towing points may only be used
for towing: never use them for lifting the
vehicle directly or indirectly.Access to towing points
Unclip by pulling towards you and lift
cover 1 or 5 (depending on the vehicle).
Tighten towing hitch 2 fully: as much
as possible by hand at first, then finish
tightening it using the wheelbrace or,
depending on the vehicle, the lever.
Use only the towing eye 2 and the
wheelbrace located under the lug -
gage compartment carpet in the tool kit
(please refer to the information under
“Tool kit” in Section 5).
