Access to the battery
The battery is located under the bonnet. To gain access to it: open the bonnet using the interior release lever, then the exterior safety catch, secure the bonnet stay, remove the plastic cover on the (+) terminal, if necessary, unclip the fusebox to remove the battery.
Disconnecting the (+) cable
Raise the locking tab D fully to release the cable terminal clamp E .
Reconnecting the (+) cable
Position the open clamp E of the cable on the positive post (+) of the battery. Press vertically on the clamp E to position it correctly on the battery. Lock the clamp by spreading the positioning lug and then lowering the tab D .
The presence of this label, in particular with the Stop & Start system, indicates the use of a 12 V lead-acid battery with special technology and specification; the involvement of a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop is essential when replacing or disconnecting the battery.
After refitting the battery, the Stop & Start system will only be active after a continuous period of immobilisation of the vehicle, a period which depends on the climatic conditions and the state of charge of the battery (up to about 8 hours).
With Stop & Start, the battery does not have to be disconnected for charging.
Procedure for starting the engine using another battery or charging a discharged battery.
Do not apply excessive force on the
tab as locking will not be possible if the clamp is not positioned correctly; start the procedure again.

Starting using another
battery
When your vehicle's battery is discharged, the engine can be started using a slave battery (external or on another vehicle) and jump lead cables.
Remove the plastic cover from the (+) terminal, if your vehicle has one. Connect the red cable to the positive terminal (+) of the flat battery A , then to the positive terminal (+) of the slave battery B . Connect one end of the green or black cable to the negative terminal (-) of the slave battery B (or earth point on the other
vehicle).
Connect the other end of the green or black Connect the other end of the green or black Connect the othercable to the earth point C on the broken down vehicle (or on the engine mounting). Start the engine of the vehicle with the good battery and leave it running for a few minutes. Operate the starter on the broken down vehicle and let the engine run If the engine does not start straight away, switch off the ignition and wait a few moments before trying again. Wait until the engine returns to idle then disconnect the jump lead cables in the reverse order. Refit the plastic cover to the (+) terminal, if your vehicle has one.
Do not try to start the engine by connecting a battery charger. Do not disconnect the (+) terminal when the engine is running.
First check that the slave battery has a nominal voltage of 12 V and a capacity at least equal to that of the discharged battery.

Charging the battery using
a battery charger
Disconnect the battery from the vehicle. Follow the instructions for use provided by the manufacturer of the charger. Connect the battery starting with the negative terminal (-). Check that the terminals and connectors are clean. If they are covered with sulphate (whitish or greenish deposit), remove them and clean them.
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 batteries and vehicle batteries to a special collection point.
It is advisable to disconnect the battery if the vehicle is to be left unused for
more than one month.
Before disconnecting the battery
Wait 2 minutes after switching off the ignition before disconnecting the battery. Close the windows and the doors before disconnecting the battery.
Following reconnection of the battery
Following reconnection of the battery, switch on the ignition and wait 1 minute before starting to permit initialisation of the electronic systems. However, if problems remain following this operation, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. Referring to the corresponding section, you must yourself reinitialise (depending on version): - the remote control key, - the electric blind(s), - ...
Protect your eyes and face before handling the battery. All operations on the battery must be carried out in a well ventilated area and away from naked flames and sources of sparks, so as to avoid the risk of explosion or fire. Do not try to charge a frozen battery; the battery must first be thawed out to avoid the risk of explosion. If the battery has been frozen, before charging have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop who will check that the internal 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 without disconnecting the terminals first. Wash your hands after wards.
Do not push the vehicle to start the engine if you have an electronic or automatic gearbox.
Some functions are not available if the battery is not sufficiently charged.

Exiting economy mode
These functions are reactivated automatically next time the vehicle is driven. To restore the use of these functions immediately, start the engine and let it run for at least 5 minutes.
Load reduction mode Energy economy mode
Switching to economy mode
Once this time has elapsed, a message appears in the screen indicating that the vehicle has switched to economy mode and the active functions are put on standby.
System which manages the use of certain functions according to the level of charge remaining in the battery. When the vehicle is being driven, the load reduction function temporarily deactivates certain functions, such as the air conditioning, the heated rear screen... The deactivated functions are reactivated automatically as soon as conditions permit.
System which manages the duration of use of certain functions to conserve a sufficient level of charge in the battery. After the engine has stopped, you can still use functions such as the audio and telematics system, windscreen wipers, dipped beam headlamps, courtesy lamps, etc. for a maximum combined duration of thirty minutes. This period may be greatly reduced if the battery is not fully charged.
If the telephone is being used at this time:
- it will be maintained for 5 minutes
with the hands-free kit of your PEUGEOT Connect Sound or PEUGEOT Connect Navigation, - it will still be possible to finish the call with the PEUGEOT Connect Media.
Let the engine run for the duration specified to ensure that the battery charge is sufficient.
Do not repeatedly and continuously restart the engine in order to charge the battery. A flat battery prevents the engine from starting (refer to the "Battery" paragraph).

Towing your vehicle
On the front bumper, unclip the cover by pressing at the bottom. Screw the towing eye in fully. Install the towing bar. Switch on the hazard warning lamps on the towed vehicle.
On the rear bumper, unclip the cover by pressing at the bottom. Screw the towing eye in fully. Install the towing bar. Switch on the hazard warning lamps on the towed vehicle.
Towing another vehicle
Put the gear lever into neutral (position N for an electronic or automatic gearbox). Failure to follow this instruction could lead to damage to certain components
(brakes, transmission, ...) and the absence of braking assistance on restarting the engine.
General
recommendations
Observe the legislation in force in your c o unt r y. Ensure that the weight of the towing vehicle is higher than that of the towed vehicle. The driver must remain at the wheel of the towed vehicle and must have a valid driving licence. When towing a vehicle with all four wheels on the ground, always use an approved towing bar; rope and straps are prohibited. When towing a vehicle with the engine off, there is no longer any power assistance for braking or steering.
In the following cases, you must always call on a professional recovery service: - vehicle broken down on a motor way or fast road, - 4 wheel drive vehicle, - when it is not possible to put the gearbox into neutral, unlock the steering, or release the parking brake, - towing with only two wheels on the ground,
- where there is no approved towing bar available...

Towing a trailer
Your vehicle is primarily designed for transporting people and luggage, but it may also be used for towing a trailer.
Driving advice
Towbar suitable for the attachment of a trailer or installation of a bicycle carrier, with additional lighting and signalling.
Distribution of loads
Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to the axle and the nose weight approaches the maximum permitted without exceeding it. Air density decreases with altitude, thus reducing engine performance. Above 1 000 metres, the maximum towed load must be reduced by 10 % for every 1 000 metres of altitude.
We recommend the use of genuine PEUGEOT towbars and their harnesses that have been tested and approved from the design stage of your vehicle, and that the fitting of the towbar is
entrusted to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. If the towbar is not fitted by a PEUGEOT dealer, it is imperative that it is fitted in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer's instructions.
Driving with a trailer places greater demands on the towing vehicle and the driver must take particular care.
Refer to the "Technical data" section for details of the weights and towed loads which apply to your vehicle.
