Ensure that the jack is stable. If the
ground is slippery or loose, the jack may
slip or drop – Risk of injury!
Take care to place the jack only at the
jacking points A or B under the vehicle,
ensuring that the contact point of the
vehicle is centred on the jack head.
Other wise, there is a risk of damage to the
vehicle and/or the jack dropping – Risk of
injury!Stowing the damaged wheel
The damaged wheel can be stowed under
the floor, in the housing for the standard
spare wheel.
To stow an alloy wheel, first remove the
hub cap from the middle of the wheel so
that the fastening device (nut and bolt) can
be put in place.
In the case of a "space-saver" type spare
wheel, the damaged wheel cannot be
stowed under the floor. It must be stowed
in the boot; use a cover to protect the
inside of the boot.
F

E

xtend the jack 2

until its head comes
into contact with the jacking point A or B ,
whichever is used; the contact area A or B
on the vehicle must be correctly inserted
into the central part of the head of the jack.
F

Ra

space between the wheel and the ground
to admit the spare (not punctured) wheel

Never try to charge a frozen battery – risk
of explosion!
If the battery has frozen, have it checked
by a CITROËN dealer or by a qualified
workshop who will check that the internal
components have not been damaged and
that the container has not cracked, which
would mean a risk of toxic and corrosive
acid leaking.
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 ser vice for a long
period.
Before disconnecting the battery:
F
C
lose all accesses (doors, boot, windows).
F

S
witch off all electrical connsumers (audio
system, wipers, lighting, etc.).
F

S
witch off the ignition and wait for four
minutes.
After accessing the battery, you only have to
disconnect the (+) terminal.
Quick-release terminal clamp
Disconnecting the (+) terminal
Reconnecting the (+) terminal
Do not force the lever as locking will be
impossible if the clamp is not positioned
correctly; start the procedure again.
After reconnecting the
battery
F Raise the lever A fully to release the clamp B.
F

R
emove the clamp B by lifting it off.
F

Ra
ise the lever A fully.
F

R

F

L
ower the lever A to lock the clamp B .After reconnecting the battery, turn on the
ignition and wait 1
minute before starting
the engine, in order to enable the electronic
systems to initialise.
If minor problems nevertheless persist
following this operation, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Referring to the corresponding section, you
must reset certain systems yourself, such as:
-

T
he key with remote control.
-

T
he date and time.
-

T
he preset radio 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 exterior
temperature and the state of charge of the
battery (up to about 8
hours).
