To avoid all risk of sparks:
– Switch off the vehicle ignition.
– Ensure that any electrical consumers
(courtesy lights, etc.) are switched
off before disconnecting or recon -
necting the battery.
– When charging, stop the charger
before connecting or disconnecting
the battery.
– Do not place metal objects on the
battery to avoid creating a short cir-
cuit between the terminals.
– Make sure that you reconnect the
battery terminals after refitting.
12 volt battery: troubleshooting
12 VOLT BATTEr Y: breakdown recovery (1/2)
Connecting a battery charger
The battery charger must be com -
patible with a battery with nominal
voltage of 12 volts.
Before disconnecting the battery, check
that:
– the ignition is switched off;
– the gear control should be in posi -
tion P (please refer to the information
on the “Gear control” in Section 2;
– the charging cable is disconnected.
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.
Handle the battery with care
as it contains sulphuric acid,
which must not come into
contact with eyes or skin. If
it does, wash the affected area with
plenty of cold water. If necessary,
consult a doctor.
Ensure that naked flames, red hot
objects and sparks do not come into
contact with the battery as there is a
risk of explosion.
The engine may be hot when car -
rying out operations in close prox -
imity. In addition, the engine cooling
fan can come on at any moment.
Risk of injury.
Disconnect the leads connected to both
battery terminals, starting with the
negative terminal.
Follow the instructions given by the
manufacturer of the battery charger
you are using.
Do not work on the 12 volt
battery (charging, replac -
ing, etc.):
– without switching off the
ignition;
– if your traction battery is charg -
ing.
Please refer to the information
on “Electric vehicle: charging” in
Section 1.
Risk of serious injury.

Keep monitoring the condition of the
wiper blades. How long they last de-
pends on you:
– clean the blades and the wind -
screen regularly with soapy
water;
– do not use them when the wind-
screen is dry;
– free them from the windscreen
when they have not been used
for a long time.
A
– In frosty weather, make
sure that the wiper blades
are not stuck by ice (to
avoid the risk of the motor
overheating).
– Check the condition of the wiper
blades.
They should be replaced as soon
as they become less efficient: ap-
proximately once a year.
When changing the blade, when it
has been removed, do not let the
wiper arm fall against the window:
risk of breaking the window.
