The batteries contain harmful substances such   as   sulphuric   acid   and   lead.   They m

ust   be   disposed   of   in   accordance
 w

ith   regulations   and   must   not,   in   any
 c

ircumstances,   be   discarded   with   household
 w

aste.
Take
  used   remote   control   batteries   and
 v

ehicle   batteries   to   a   special   collection   point.Protect your eyes and face before handling   the   battery.
All
  operations   on   the   battery   must   be  
c

arried   out   in   a   well   ventilated   area   and  
a

way   from   naked   flames   and   sources  
o

f   sparks,   so   as   to   avoid   the   risk   of  
e

xplosion   or   fire.
Do
  not   try   to   charge   a   frozen   battery;  
t

he   battery   must   first   be   thawed   out   to  
a

void   the   risk   of   explosion.   If   the   battery  
h

as   been   frozen,   before   charging   have  
i

t   checked   by   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a  
q

ualified   workshop   who   will   check   that  
t

he   internal   components   have   not   been  
d

amaged   and   the   casing   is   not   cracked,  
w

hich   could   cause   a   leak   of   toxic   and  
c

orrosive   acid.
Do
  not   reverse   the   polarity   and   use   only  
a

  12   V   charger.
Do
  not   disconnect   the   terminals   while  
t

he   engine   is   running.
Do
  not   charge   the   batteries   without  
d

isconnecting   the   terminals   first.
Wash
  your   hands   after wards.
It
 
is
 
advisable
 
to
 
disconnect
 
the
 
battery
 
i

f
 
the
 
vehicle
 
is
 
to
 
be
 
left
 
unused
 
for
 
m

ore
 
than
 
one
 
month.
If
  your   vehicle   is   fitted   with   an   electronic  
g

earbox,   do   not   push   the   vehicle   to   start  
t

he
 eng
ine.Charging the battery using
a battery charger
F Disconnect   the   battery   from   the   vehicle.
F  F ollow   the   instructions   for   use   provided   by  
t

he   manufacturer   of   the   charger.
F
 
C
onnect   the   battery   starting   with   the  
n

egative   terminal   (-).
F
 
C
heck   that   the   terminals   and   connectors  
a

re   clean.   If   they   are   covered   with   sulphate  
(

whitish   or   greenish   deposit),   remove   them  
a

nd   clean   them.
With
  Stop   &   Start,   the   battery   does   not  
h

ave   to   be   disconnected   for   charging.

Load reduction mode
System which manages the use of certain functions   according   to   the   level   of   charge  
r

emaining   in   the   battery.
When
  the   vehicle   is   being   driven,   the   load  
r

eduction   function   temporarily   deactivates  
c

ertain   functions,   such   as   the   air   conditioning,  
t

he   heated   rear   screen...
The
  deactivated   functions   are   reactivated  
a

utomatically   as   soon   as   conditions   permit.System
  which   manages   the   duration   of   use   of  c
ertain functions to conserve a sufficient level
of
  charge   in   the   battery.
After
  the   engine   has   stopped,   you   can  
s

till   use   functions   such   as   the   audio   and  
t

elematics   system, windscreen   wipers,   dipped  
b

eam   headlamps, courtesy   lamps,   etc.   for  
a

  maximum   combined   duration   of   about  
f

orty minutes.
Energy economy mode
Switching to economy mode
A message then appears in the instrument p
anel   screen   indicating   that   the   vehicle   has  
s

witched   to   economy   mode   and   the   active  
f

unctions   are   put   on   standby.
If
  a   telephone   call   is   being   made   at   this   time,  
i

t   will   be   maintained   for   around   10   minutes  
w

ith   the   Bluetooth   hands-free   system   of   your  
a

udio system.
Exiting economy mode
These functions are reactivated automatically n ext   time   the   vehicle   is   driven.
In
  order   to   restore   the   use   of   these   functions  
i

mmediately,   start   the   engine   and   let   it   run:
-
 
f
or   less   than   ten   minutes,   to   use   the  
e

quipment   for   approximately   five   minutes,
-
 
f
or   more   than   ten   minutes,   to   use   the  
e

quipment   for   up   to   approximately  
t

hirty minutes.
Let
  the   engine   run   for   the   duration   specified   to  
e

nsure   that   the   battery   charge   is   sufficient.
Do
  not   repeatedly   and   continuously   restart   the  
e

ngine   in   order   to   charge   the   battery.
A
  flat   battery   prevents   the   engine   from  
s

tarting   (refer   to   the   "Battery"   section).

Checks
12 V battery
The battery does not require any maintenance.
H owever,   check   that   the   terminals   are   clean a

nd   correctly   tightened,   particularly   in   summer
 a

nd   winter.Refer to the manufacturer's service   schedule   for   details   of   the  
r

eplacement   intervals   for   these  
c

omponents.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Replace the oil filter each time the e ngine   oil   is   changed.
Refer
  to   the   manufacturer's  
s

ervice   schedule   for   details   of  
t

he   replacement   interval   for   this  
c

omponent.
Oil filterThe presence of this label, in particular with
the   Stop   &   Start   system,   indicates   the   use   of  
a

  specific   12   V   lead-acid   battery   with   special  
t

echnology   and   specification.   The   involvement  
o

f   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified   workshop  
i

s   essential   when   replacing   or   disconnecting  
t

he   battery.
Unless
  other wise   indicated,   check   these   components   in   accordance   with   the   manufacturer's   service   schedule   and   according   to   your   engine.
Other wise,   have   them   checked   by   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified   workshop.
Depending   on   the   environment   (e.g.   dusty  
a

tmosphere)   and   the   use   of   the   vehicle  
(

e.g. city   driving),   replace them twice as often
if necessary .
A   clogged   passenger   compartment   filter   may  
h

ave   an   adverse   effect   on   the   per formance  
o

f   the   air   conditioning   system   and   generate  
u

ndesirable
 o
dours.
Particle filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of the
particle
  filter   is   indicated   by   the  
f

ixed   illumination   of   this   warning  
l

amp   accompanied   by   a   warning  
m

essage.
As
 
soon   as   the   traffic   conditions   permit,  
r

egenerate   the   filter   by   driving   at   a  
s

peed   of   at   least   40   mph   (60   km/h)   until  
t

he
 
warning   lamp   goes   off.
If
 
the
  warning   lamp   stays   on,   this  
i

ndicates   a   low   additive   level.
on a n

ew vehicle, the first particle
filter
 
regeneration   operations   may   be  
a

ccompanied   by   a   "burning"   smell,  
w

hich   is   per fectly   normal.
Following
  prolonged   operation   of   the  
v

ehicle   at   very   low   speed   or   at   idle,  
y

ou
 
may,   in   exceptional   circumstances,  
n

otice   the   emission   of   water   vapour   at  
t

he
 
exhaust   on   acceleration.   This   does  
n

ot affect the behaviour of the vehicle
or
 
the   environment.
When
 
carrying
 
out
 
work
 
on
 
the
 
battery,
 
refer
 
t

o
 
the
 
"12
 
V

section
 
for
 
details
 
of
 
the
 
p

recautions
 
to
 
be
 
taken
 
before
 
disconnecting
