All operations on the battery must be carried
out in a well ventilated area and away from
naked flames and sources of sparks, to avoid
any risk of explosion or fire.
Wash your hands afterwards.

Flat accessory battery
It is not possible to start the motor or
recharge the traction battery.
Precautions before working on the
accessory battery
Select mode P, switch off the ignition, check
that the instrument panel is off and that the
vehicle is not plugged in.
Recharging the accessory battery
Do not recharge the battery without first
disconnecting the terminals and removing the
battery from the motor compartment.
Do not disconnect the battery terminals while
the READY lamp is lit, or while the vehicle is
charging.
Access to the battery
The battery is located under the bonnet.

For access to the (+) terminal:
►  Release the bonnet by pulling the internal
release lever, then the external safety catch.
►  Raise the bonnet.
(+) Positive terminal.
This terminal has a quick-release clamp.
(-) Negative terminal.
As the battery's negative terminal is not

the battery.
Vehicles equipped with DS MATRIX LED
VISION headlamps
Never connect jump leads to the metal part on
the back of the headlamps.
Risk of headlamp damage!
Starting using another battery
If your vehicle's battery is flat, the engine can be
started using a backup battery (either external or
from another vehicle) and jump leads or using a
battery booster.
Never start the engine by connecting a
battery charger.
Never use a 24 V or higher battery booster.
Check beforehand that the backup 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.

164In the event of a breakdown08
► At the end of the charging operation, switch
off charger B before disconnecting the cables
from battery A.

24v 12v
If this label is present, use only a 12 V
charger to avoid causing irreversible
damage to the electrical components related
to the Stop & Start system.
Never try to charge a frozen battery - risk
of explosion!
If the battery has frozen, have it checked by
a dealer or by a qualified workshop who will
verify that the internal components have not
been damaged and that the case has not
cracked, which would mean a risk of toxic and
corrosive acid leaking.
Some functions, including Stop & Start,
are not available if the battery is not
sufficiently charged.
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. Before disconnecting the battery:
► 
Close all openings (doors, boot, windows,
roof).
►  Switch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, wipers, lighting, etc.).
►  Switch off the ignition and wait for 4 minutes.
At the battery, it is only necessary to disconnect
the (+) terminal.
Quick-release terminal clamp
Disconnecting the (+) terminal

►  Depending on equipment, lift the plastic cover
on the (+) terminal.
►  Raise lever A fully to release clamp B.
►  Remove clamp B by lifting it off.
Reconnecting the (+) terminal

► Raise lever A fully.
►  Refit the open clamp B on the (+) terminal.
►  Push clamp B fully down.
►  Lower lever A to lock clamp B.
►  Depending on equipment, lower the plastic
cover on the (+) terminal.
Do not force the lever as locking will be
impossible if the clamp is not positioned
correctly; start the procedure again.
After reconnection
After reconnecting the battery, turn on the
ignition and wait 1 minute before starting the
engine, to enable the electronic systems to
initialise.
If minor problems nevertheless persist following
this operation, contact a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Referring to the relevant section, reset certain
equipment:
– Electronic key.
– Electric windows.
– Date and time.
– Preset radio stations.
After reconnection of the battery, the
“Collision risk detection system fault”
message is displayed on the instrument panel
when the ignition is switched on. This
operation is perfectly normal. The message
will disappear while driving.
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
