fuses with an amperage of 7.5 A, 25 A
or 30 A. If one of the fuses with these
amperages develops a fault, replace it
with the following fuse:
A 7.5 A fuse must be replaced with the
10 A spare fuse
, a 25 A fuse with the
20 A spare fuse and a 30 A fuse with

General
If your vehicle has an automatic
gearbox, do not try to start the engine
by pushing the vehicle.
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.
Before handling the battery, protect
your eyes and face.
All work on the battery must be carried
out in a ventilated area and away from
naked flames or sources of sparks, to
avoid any risk of explosion and fire.
Wash your hands when you have
finished.

a battery charger
Follow the instructions for use provided
by the manufacturer of the charger.
Never invert the polarities.
Never start the engine by connecting a
battery charger.
Never use a battery booster of 24 V or
higher.
Check first that the slave battery has a
nominal voltage of 12 V and a capacity
at least equal to that of the discharged
battery.
The two vehicles must not touch.
Switch off all power-consuming
equipment on the two vehicles (audio
system, wipers, lamps, etc.).
Ensure that the slave cables do not
pass near the moving parts of the
engine (fan, belt, etc.).
Do not disconnect the (+) terminal while
the engine is running.

Do not invert the polarities 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.
Do not push the vehicle to start the engine if it is fitted with a CVT gearbox.
Disconnecting the battery
To maintain a sufficient level of charge
to start the engine, it is advisable to
disconnect the battery if the vehicle is not
going to be used for a very long period.
Before disconnecting the battery:
F
C
lose all the doors and windows,
the
tailgate and the roof.
F
S
witch off all power-consuming
equipment (audio system, wipers,
lamps, etc.).
F
S
witch off the ignition and wait
4
m
inutes.
Once you have gained access to
the
battery, start by disconnecting
the (-) terminal.
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 CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Referring to the corresponding section, you
must reinitialise certain equipment yourself,
such as:
-
T
he remote control key or the electronic
key (depending on version).
-
T
he electric blind(s).
-
T
he electric windows.
-
T
he date and time.
-
T
he stored radio stations. Some functions, including Stop & Start,
are not available if the battery is not
sufficiently charged.
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.
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).
