Charging the battery using a battery charger
For optimum service life of the battery, it is
essential to maintain an adequate state of
charge.
In some circumstances it may be necessary to
charge the battery:
-
i
f you use your vehicle essentially for short
journeys,
-
i
f the vehicle is to be taken off the road for
several weeks.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop. It is not necessary to disconnect the
battery.
Never try to charge a frozen battery.
If the battery has been frozen, have
it checked by a CITROËN 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.
If you envisage charging your vehicle's
battery yourself, use only a charger
compatible with lead-acid batteries of a
nominal voltage of 12 V.
If this label is present, it is essential
to use only a 12 V charger, to avoid
causing irreversible damage to the
electrical components related to the
Stop & Start system. Follow the instructions for use provided
by the manufacturer of the charger.
Never reverse polarities.

F Ra ise the lever A fully to release the
clamp

F
R
emove the clamp B by lifting it off. The Stop & Start system may not be
operational during the trip following the
first engine start.
In this case, the system will only be
available again after a continuous
period of immobilisation of the vehicle,
a period which depends on the exterior
temperature and the state of charge of
the battery (up to about 8 hours).
In order to maintain an adequate state
of charge for starting the engine, it is
recommended that the battery be disconnected
if the vehicle is taken out of service for a long
period.
Before disconnecting the battery:
F
c
lose all openings (doors, boot, windows),
F
s
witch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, wipers, lighting, etc.),
F
s

At the battery, it is only necessary to
disconnect the (+) terminal.
Disconnecting the battery
After reconnecting the battery, switch on the
ignition and wait 1 minute before starting to
allow initialisation of the electronic systems.
However, if minor problems persist following
this operation, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Referring to the corresponding section, you
must yourself initialise or reset certain systems,
such as:
-
t
he remote control or electronic key
(depending on version),
-
t
he electric windows,
-
t
he date and time,
-
t
he radio preset stations.
