Starting using another
battery
Never try to start the engine by
connecting a battery charger.
Never use a 24 V or higher battery
b o o s t e r.
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.
The two vehicles must not be in contact
with each other.
Switch off the electrical consumers on
both vehicles (audio system, wipers,
lighting, ...).
Ensure that the jump lead cables do
not pass close to moving parts of the
engine (cooling fan, belts, ...).
Do not disconnect the (+) terminal when
the engine is running.F
R
aise the plastic cover on the (+) terminal,
if your vehicle has one.
F
C
onnect the red cable to the positive
terminal (+) of the flat battery A (at
the metal elbow) then to the positive
terminal
(+) of the slave battery B or the
b o o s t e r.
F
C
onnect one end of the green or black
cable to the negative terminal (-) of the
slave battery B or the booster (or earth
point on the other vehicle).
F
C
onnect the other end of the green or black
cable to the earth point C on the broken
down vehicle.
F
S
tart the engine of the vehicle with the
good battery and leave it running for a
few
m
inutes.
F
O
perate 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.
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 or a battery booster.
Some functions, including Stop & Start,
are not available if the battery is not
sufficiently charged.
F
W
ait until the engine returns to idle then
disconnect the jump lead cables in the
reverse order.
F
R
efit the plastic cover to the (+) terminal, if
your vehicle has one.
F
A
llow the engine to run for at least
30 minutes, by driving or with the vehicle
stationary, so that the battery reaches an
adequate state of charge.

In the event of a breakdown
318
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.
Charging the battery using
a battery charger
F Switch off the ignition.
F S witch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, lighting, wipers, ...).
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. Follow the instructions for use provided
by the manufacturer of the charger.
Never reverse polarities.
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 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. It is not necessary to disconnect the
battery.
F
S
witch off the charger B before connecting
the cables to the battery, so as to avoid any
dangerous sparks.
F
E
nsure that the charger cables are in good
condition.
F
R
aise the plastic cover, if your vehicle has
one, on the (+) terminal. F
C
onnect the charger B cables as follows:
-
t
he positive (+) red cable to the
(+) terminal of the battery A
,
-
t
he negative (-) black cable to the earth
point C on the vehicle.
F
A
t the end of the charging operation, switch
off the charger B before disconnecting the
cables from the battery A .
In the event of a breakdown
319
Do not force the lever as locking will
not be possible if the clamp is not
positioned correctly; start the procedure
again.
Disconnecting the battery
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.
Wait 2 minutes after switching off the ignition
before disconnecting the battery.
F
c
lose the windows and the doors before
disconnecting the battery,
F
s
witch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, wipers, lighting, ...),
F
s
witch off the ignition and wait for
four
m
inutes.
Having exposed the battery, it is only
necessary to disconnect the (+) terminal.
Quick release terminal
Disconnecting the (+) terminal
F Raise the lever A fully to release the clamp B.
Following reconnection of the battery
Reconnecting the (+) terminal
F Position the open clamp B of the cable on
the positive post (+) of the battery.
F
P
ress down on the clamp to position it
correctly on the battery post.
F
L
ock the clamp by lowering the lever A .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 reinitialise 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.
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 ambient
temperature and the state of charge of
the battery (up to about 8 hours).
