Charging the battery using
a battery charger
For optimum service life of the battery, it is essential   to   maintain   an   adequate   state   of  
c

harge.
In
  some   circumstances   it   may   be   necessary   to  
c

harge   the   battery:
-
 
i
f   you   use   your   vehicle   essentially   for   short  
j

ourneys,
-
 
i
f   the   vehicle   is   to   be   taken   off   the   road   for  
s

everal   weeks.
Contact
  a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
w

orkshop. It
  is   not   necessary   to   disconnect   the  
b

attery.
Never
  try   to   charge   a   frozen   battery.
If the battery has been frozen, have
it
  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.
If
  you   envisage   charging   your   vehicle's  
b

attery   yourself,   use   only   a   charger  
c

ompatible   with   lead-acid   batteries   of   a  
n

ominal   voltage   of   12   V.
If this label is present, it is essential
to
  use   only   a   12   V   charger,   to   avoid  
c

ausing   irreversible   damage   to   the  
e

lectrical   components   related   to   the  
S

top   &   Start   system. Follow
  the   instructions   for   use   provided  
b

y   the   manufacturer   of   the   charger.
Never
  reverse   polarities.
