In the event of a breakdown
 
► Connect the red cable to the (+) terminal of 
flat battery   A (at the metal elbow), then to the 
(+) terminal of the backup battery
  B or of the 
booster.
►
 
Connect one end of the green or black cable 
to the (-) terminal of the backup battery
  B or of 
the booster (or to an earth point on the assisting 
vehicle).
►
 
Connect the other end of the green or black 
cable to the earth point
 
C
 .
►
 
Start the engine on the assisting vehicle and 
leave it running for a few minutes.
►
 
Operate the starter on the broken down 
vehicle and let the engine run.
If the engine does not start immediately
, switch 
off the ignition and wait a few moments before 
trying again.
►
 
W
 ait for it to return to idle.
►
 
Disconnect the jump leads  in reverse order.
►
 
Allow the engine to run for at least 
30
  minutes, with the vehicle stationary, so that 
the battery reaches an adequate state of charge.
Driving immediately without having 
reached a sufficient level of charge may 
affect some of the vehicle's functions (e.g. 
Stop & Start).
To disconnect, proceed in reverse order. 
Automatic gearbox
Never try to start the engine by pushing 
the vehicle.
Some functions, including Stop & Start, 
are not available if the battery is not 
sufficiently charged.
Charging the battery using a 
battery charger
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:
–
 
When using the vehicle mainly for short 
journeys.
–
 
If the vehicle is to be taken off the road for 
several weeks.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified 
workshop.
To charge the 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.
►
 
Switch the ignition off.
►
 
Switch off all electrical consumers (audio 
system, lighting, wipers, etc.).
 
 
► Switch off charger  B  before connecting 
the cables to the battery, so as to avoid any 
dangerous sparks.
►
 
Ensure that the charger cables are in good 
condition.
►
 
Lift the plastic cover on the (+) terminal, if the 
vehicle has one.
►
 
Connect the cables of charger  B
 as follows:

In the event of a breakdown
Referring to the relevant section, reinitialise 
certain equipment:
– 
Remote control key or electronic key 
(depending on version).
–
 
Electric windows.
–
 
Date and time.
–
 
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 with the 
vehicle immobilised, the duration of which 
depends on the exterior temperature and the 
state of charge of the battery (up to about 8 
hours).
Towing
Procedure for having your vehicle towed or for 
towing another vehicle using the towing eye.
General recommendations
Observe the legislation in force in the 
country where you are driving.
Check that the towing vehicle is heavier than 
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; 
ropes 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.
A professional recovery service must 
be called in the following cases:
–
 
broken down on a motorway or main road;
– not possible to put the gearbox into neutral, 
unlock the steering, or release the parking 
brake;
–
 
not possible to tow a vehicle with an 
automatic gearbox, with the engine running;
–
 
towing with only two wheels on the ground;
–
 
four-wheel drive vehicle;
–
 
no approved towbar available.
Before towing the vehicle, it is essential 
to put the vehicle in free-wheeling mode.
For more information on  Free-wheeling, refer 
to the corresponding section.
Electric motor
An electric vehicle cannot under any 
circumstances be used to tow another 
vehicle.
However, it may be used, for example, to exit 
a rut.

In case of battery or electric parking brake failure, it is essential to call a p
rofessional using flatbed recovery vehicles (excluding manual gearbox). 
Accessing the towing eye
For more information on the Tool kit, 
refer to the corresponding section.
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 
 
► In the front bumper , slide a finger from the 
centre of the cover plate to the upper corner (as 
shown above) to unclip it.
►
 
Screw the towing eye in fully
 .
►
 
Install the towbar
 . ►
 
Switch on the hazard warning lamps on the 
towed vehicle.
►
  
Move off gently
 , drive slowly and for a short 
distance.
