Operating fault
This system requires a specific battery with a special specification and technology
(
reference numbers available from a CITROËN
d
ealer or a qualified workshop).
Fitting
a battery not listed by CITROËN
i
ntroduces the risk of malfunction of the
s
ystem. Before
doing anything under the
b
onnet, deactivate the Stop & Start
s
ystem to avoid any risk of injury
r
esulting from automatic operation of
S
TART mode.
The Stop & Start system makes use
o
f advanced technology. All work on
t
his type of battery must be done only
b
y a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
w
orkshop.
In
the
event
