First
 
check
 
that
 
the
 
slave
 
battery
 
has
 
a
 
n

ominal
 
voltage
 
of
 
12
 
V
 
and
 
a
 
capacity
 
a

t
 
least
 
equal
 
to
 
that
 
of
 
the
 
discharged
 
b

attery.
The
 
two
 
vehicles
 
must
 
not
 
be
 
in
 
contact
 w
ith
 
each
 
other.
Switch

Charging the battery using
a battery charger
For optimum service life of the battery, it is essential   to   maintain   an   adequate   state   of  
c

harge.
In
  some   circumstances   it   may   be   necessary   to  
c

harge   the   battery:
-

i
f you use your vehicle essentially for short
journeys,
-
 
i
f   the   vehicle   is   to   be   taken   off   the   road   for  
s

everal   weeks.
Contact
  a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
w

orkshop. 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  
q

ualified   workshop,   who   will   check   that  
t

he   internal   components   have   not   been  
d

amaged   and   the   casing   is   not   cracked,  
w

hich   could   cause   a   leak   of   toxic   and  
c

orrosive   acid.
If
  you   envisage   charging   your   vehicle's  
b

attery   yourself,   use   only   a   charger  
c

ompatible   with   lead-acid   batteries   of   a  
n

ominal   voltage   of   12   V.
If this label is present, it is essential
to
  use   only   a   12   V   charger,   to   avoid  
c

ausing   irreversible   damage   to   the  
e

lectrical   components   related   to   the  
S

top   &   Start   system. Follow the instructions for use provided
by
  the   manufacturer   of   the   charger.
Never
  reverse   polarities.
F
 
S
witch   off   the   ignition.
F
 
S
witch   off   all   electrical   consumers   (audio  
s

ystem,   lighting,   wipers, ...).
F
 
S
witch   off   the   charger   B   before   connecting  
t

he cables to the battery, so as to avoid any
dangerous
 spar

ks.
F
 
E
nsure   that   the   charger   cables   are   in   good  
c

ondition.
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  
p

oint C   on   the   vehicle.
F
 
A
t   the   end   of   the   charging   operation,   switch  
o

ff   the   charger   B   before   disconnecting   the  
c

ables   from   the   battery   A.

Quick release terminal
Disconnecting the (+) terminal
F Raise the lever A fully to release the clamp  B.
The
  Stop   &   Start   system   may   not   be  
o

perational   during   the   trip   following   the  
f

irst   engine   start.
In
  this   case,   the   system   will   only   be  
a

vailable   again   after   a   continuous  
p

eriod   of   immobilisation   of   the   vehicle,  
a

  period   which   depends   on   the   ambient  
t

emperature   and   the   state   of   charge   of  
t

he   battery   (up   to   about   8   hours).
It
 
is
 
recommended
 
that
 
the
 
battery
 
be
 
d

isconnected if the vehicle is not to be used
for
 
a
 
very
 
long
 
period,
 
so
 
as
 
to
 
maintain
 
an
 
a

dequate
 
state
 
of
 
charge
 
for
 
starting
 
the
 
e

ngine.
Before
 
disconnecting
 
the
 
battery:
F
 
c

lose
 
all
 
openings
 
(doors,
 
boot,
 
windows,
 
r

oof),
F
 
s

witch
