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.

Electrical equipment POssIBLE CAUsEsACTION rEqUIrED
The headlights
are not working. Only one:
– blown bulb, Replace the bulb.
– disconnected wire or incorrectly-posi -
tioned connector, Check and reconnect the wire or the con-
nector.
– faulty earth connection. See above.
Both: – if the circuit is fused. Check and replace if necessary.
The headlights do not switch off. Faulty electrical controls.Consult an approved dealer.
Traces of condensation in the lights. This is not a fault. The presence of traces
of condensation in lights is a natural phe-
nomenon linked to variations in tempera-
ture.
These traces soon disappear when the
lights are switched on.
