Charging the battery using
a battery charger
For optimum ser vice 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 only use your vehicle 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.
If you plan to charge your vehicle's battery
yourself, use only a charger compatible
with lead-acid batteries with a nominal
voltage of 12
V.
Follow the instructions provided by the
manufacturer of the charger.
Never reverse polarities.
It is not necessary to disconnect the
battery.

one, on the (+) terminal.

C on the vehicle.
F

A
t the end of the charging operation, switch
off charger B before disconnecting the
cables from battery A . 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 of the accesses (doors, tailgate,
windows, roof), 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.

Do not force the lever as locking will be
impossible if the clamp is not positioned
correctly; start the procedure again.
Following reconnection of the battery
Following reconnection of the battery, turn on
the ignition and wait 1 minute before starting
the engine, in order to enable the electronic
systems to initialise.
However, if minor problems persist following
this operation, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop. The Stop & Start system may not be
operational during the trip following the
next 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).

Procedure for having your vehicle towed or
for towing another vehicle using a removable
mechanical device. Referring to the corresponding section, you
must reinitialise certain systems yourself, such
as:
-
t
he remote control or electronic key
(depending on version),
-
t
he electric windows,
-
t
he electric doors,
-
t
he date and time,
-
t
he radio preset stations.
Access to the eye

, refer
to the corresponding section.
In the event of a breakdown

217
With a manual gearbox, move the gear
lever into neutral.
With an automatic gearbox, place the gear
selector into position N.
Failure to adhere to this instruction
may lead to damage to braking system
components and the lack of braking
assistance on restarting the engine.
Towing your vehicle
F In the front bumper, slide a finger from the centre of the cover plate to the upper corner
(as shown above) to unclip it.
F

S
crew the towing eye in fully.
F

I
nstall the towbar. General recommendations
Obser ve the legislation in force in your
c o u nt r y.
Ensure that the weight of the towing
vehicle is higher than that of the towed
vehicle.
The driver must remain at the wheel of
the towed vehicle and must have a valid
driving licence.
When towing a vehicle with all four wheels
on the ground, always use an approved
towbar: rope and straps are prohibited.
The towing vehicle must move off gently.
When the vehicle is towed with its engine
off, there is no longer braking and steering
assistance.
In the following cases, you must always
call on a professional recovery ser vice:
-

v

main road,
-
f

-
w
hen it is not possible to put the
gearbox into neutral, unlock the
steering, or release the parking brake,
-
t
owing with only two wheels on the
ground,
- w here there is no approved towbar,
etc. available.

Engine technical data and
towed loads
Engines
The engine characteristics are given in the
vehicle's registration document, as well as in
sales brochures.The maximum power corresponds to the
value type-approved on a test bed, under
conditions defined in European legislation
(Directive 1999/99/EC).
For more information, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Weights and towed loads
The weights and towed loads relating to
your vehicle are indicated on the registration
document, as well as in sales brochures.
These values are also indicated on the
manufacturer's plate or label.
For more information, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop. The GTW (Gross Train Weight) and towed load
values indicated are valid up to a maximum
altitude of 1,000
metres. The towed load value
must be reduced by 10% for each additional
1,000 metres of altitude.
The maximum authorised nose weight
corresponds to the weight permitted on the
towball.
When exterior temperatures are high,
the vehicle per formance may be limited
in order to protect the engine. When the
exterior temperature is higher than 37°C,
limit the towed weight.
Towing even with a lightly loaded vehicle
can adversely affect its road holding.
Braking distances are increased when
towing a trailer.
When using a vehicle to tow, never exceed
a speed of 62 mph (100 km/h) (obser ve
the local legislation in force). If the exterior temperature is high, it is
recommended that the engine be allowed
to idle for 1 to 2
minutes after the vehicle
comes to a stop, to facilitate its cooling.
