12 V battery
Procedure for starting the engine using another
battery or for charging a discharged battery.
Lead-acid starter batteries
These batteries contain harmful substances (sulphuric acid and lead).
They must be disposed of in accordance
with regulations and must never under any
circumstances be discarded with household
waste.
Take used remote control batteries and
vehicle batteries to a special collection point.
Protect your eyes and face before
handling the battery.
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.
Natural battery discharge
In certain severe climatic conditions
(temperature, humidity), the battery can
discharge after 2 months, even with terminals
disconnected.
To store the vehicle or the battery, use a
location protected from heat and humidity.
Battery power loss
A battery can be discharged due to
power losses:
–
Continuous electrical consumption of a
component (e.g. alarm, anti-theft device).
–
Device powered up when the engine is off
(e.g. audio system, USB charger).
–
Electrical leakage due to poor insulation of
electrical components.
If the power loss cannot be located, contact a
PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop to
have the vehicle's electrical system checked.
Battery charge check
For batteries with a charge status
indicator, read the value indicated on the
battery directly.
For other types of batteries, the check can be
carried out with a voltmeter:
►
Connect the voltmeter to the battery
terminals (respect the polarities).
►
Read the voltage value.
►
T
urn the main beam headlamps on.
If the battery voltage remains at or above 10
V without rapidly decreasing, the charge is
correct.
If the battery voltage drops quickly or is less
than 10 V, the battery must be recharged or
replaced.
Accessing the battery
The battery is located under the bonnet.

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

In the event of a breakdown
► 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 functionalities.
With an automatic gearbox, never try to
start the engine by pushing the vehicle.
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 PEUGEOT
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.).

on the vehicle.
►
At 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
PEUGEOT 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.
Disconnecting the battery
