PRACTICAL INFORMATION
215









Charging the battery using a
battery charger
It is advisable to disconnect the
battery if the vehicle is to be left
unused for more than one month.












The batteries contain harmful
substances such as sulphuric
acid and lead. They must be
disposed of in accordance with
regulations and must not, in any
circumstances, be discarded
with household waste.
Take used remote control bat-
teries and vehicle batteries to a
special collection point.



Disconnect the battery from the vehicle.



Follow the instructions for use pro-
vided by the manufacturer of the
charger.


Connect the battery starting with the
negative terminal (-).


Check that the terminals and con-
nectors are clean. If they are covered
with sulphate (whitish or greenish
deposit), remove them and clean
them.

Protect your eyes and face be-
fore handling the battery.
All operations on the battery
must be carried out in a well
ventilated area and away from
naked fl ames and sources of
sparks, so as to avoid the risk of
explosion or fi re.
Do not try to charge a frozen
battery; the battery must fi rst
be thawed out to avoid the risk
of explosion. If the battery has
been frozen, before charging
have it checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop
who will check that the inter-
nal components have not been
damaged and the casing is not
cracked, which could cause a
leak of toxic and corrosive acid.
Do not reverse the polarity and
use only a 12 V charger.
Do not disconnect the terminals
while the engine is running.
Do not charge the batteries with-
out disconnecting the terminals
fi rst.
Wash your hands afterwards.



Reinitialisation after
reconnection

After any reconnection of the battery,
switch on the ignition and wait at least
one minute before starting, to allow
time for the initialisation of the electron-
ic systems.
By referring to the corresponding sec-
tions, you should set or initialise the fol-
lowing systems yourself:


- one-touch electric windows,

- time and date,

- audio and navigation system set-
tings.
Check that no alert message or warn-
ing lamp comes on after switching on
the ignition.
However, if minor problems persist af-
ter carrying out these operations, con-
tact a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.


Some functions are not available
if the battery is not suffi ciently
charged.









Do not push the vehicle to start
the engine if you have an elec-
tronic or automatic gearbox.
With Stop & Start, the battery
does not have to be disconnect-
ed for charging.
