200 V high voltage battery
The Ni-Mh (Nickel-Metal Hydride) technology used for the high voltage battery is suited to the frequent partial charging and discharging cycles related to the operation of a hybrid vehicle. The battery is installed close to the electric motor, below the boot trim, behind the storage well.
Charging
The battery recharges automatically while travelling. The battery is charged when the vehicle decelerates and when going downhill, the electric motor then becomes a generator and converts kinetic energy into electrical energy (except if the speed of the vehicle is above 70 mph (120 km/h)). This recovery allows the use of "free" energy. The battery may also be partially charged up to a level of 4 to 5 bars, using the alternator-starter motor (Stop & Start) of the HDi Diesel engine.
The battery charging time is very short.
To preserve the service life of the battery, the level of charge never falls below 20%, even if no bars are displayed on the gauge after ZEVrunning. Where the battery is close to maximum,
vehicle deceleration with your foot off the accelerator pedal will be at a lower level.
The average state of charge is 4 to 5 bars, so preserving a margin for energy recovery when deceleration or going downhill (free energy).
The battery is not recharged from a mains power supply.
Once it is discharged, following ZEV running or high load, the battery will reach its optimum
level of charge after around 10 minutes.

Ventilation of the high voltage battery
The high voltage battery has an air cooling system. This comprises an air intake (located on the rear shelf) and a fan (located behind the left hand boot trim).
This ventilation system does not operate at the same speed at all times: it is continuously adjusted to suit the cooling requirements of the battery. The noise of its operation can be heard, particularly at the rear, after the HYbrid4
system is switched off (post-ventilation).
Safety recommendations
Do not obstruct the air intake with objects such as clothes or bags, in order to avoid any risk of the battery overheating, which could cause a loss of per formance of the HYbrid4 system,
even damage to the battery. Do not spill fluids, as this may damage the battery and cause a short-circuit.

Boot fi ttings
1. Boot lamps2. Rear seat folding controls3. Retractable hooks4. 12 V accessor y socket (120 W max)5. Storage wells With the towing eye, a chock to immobilise the vehicle's wheels and the temporary puncture repair kit (according country of sale and equipment). 6. Load space cover7. Tracks for stowing rings8. Stowing rings Take each ring in turn and then slide them into the oblong location in the track. Pressing the button, move the ring to the desired position.
Observe the direction of fitment: the ring should be towards the outside of the vehicle.

Removing / Refi tting the 12 V battery
This procedure allows you to safely remove the 12 V battery, when needed to change a left hand headlamp bulb.
You can contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop to have this done.
Before removing
 Place the vehicle in a ventilated area, with free access and preferably on level ground.  Apply the parking brake.  Place the gear selector in position N .  If the vehicle has an alarm, leave the bonnet open to avoid triggering the alarm.  Leave at least one window open if parking in a secure area, other wise lock all doors and the boot.  If your vehicle has a motorised tailgate, it will not be possible to open it after disconnecting the battery.  Switch of the ignition and remove the key.  If your vehicle has Keyless Entry and Starting, place the remote control at least 3 metres away.  Wait around 6 minutes before disconnecting the battery.
R e m o v i n g
 Disconnect the positive ( + ) terminal of the + ) terminal of the +battery.

R e f i t t i n g
To refit the battery, carry out the removal operations in reverse order and connect the positive (+) terminal last.
After refitting
 Check that the battery terminals are secure.  Switch on the ignition, without starting the engine.  Check that there are no error messages or warning lamps on. If there is any problem, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system reset.  Check the correct operation of all openings: doors, boot and windows.  After refitting, wait for about 2 minutes.  Start the engine.
 Check the correct operation of the anti-pinch systems: electric windows and panoramic sunroof.  Check the correct operation of the electric parking brake by releasing and applying it again.  Switch off the ignition.  Get out of the vehicle and check the operation of the remote control.  Set: the time, the radio preset stations and the audio settings.
After reconnecting the battery, certain functions may be temporarily
unavailable: air conditioning, navigation.
In all cases, if there is a problem, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
