n

eutral,   then   switch   off   the   ignition.
Check
  that   all   electrical   equipment   is  
s

witched   off.

  refitting   the   battery,   the   Stop   &   Start
 
s

ystem   will   only   be   active   after   a
 c

ontinuous   period   of   immobilisation   of   the
 v

ehicle,   a   period   which   depends   on   the
 c

limatic   conditions   and   the   state   of   charge
 o

f   the   battery   (up   to   about   8   hours).Do not push the vehicle to start the
engine
  if   you   have   an   ETG   electronic

General points
Lead-acid starter batteries
Batteries contain harmful substances such   as   sulphuric   acid   and   lead.
They
  must   be   disposed   of   in  
a

ccordance   with   regulations   and   must  
n

ot,   in   any   circumstances,   be   discarded  
w

ith   household   waste.
Take
  used   remote   control   batteries   and  
v

ehicle batteries to a special collection
point. Protect
  your   eyes   and   face   before  h
andling   the   battery.
All
  operations   on   the   battery   must   be  
c

arried   out   in   a   well   ventilated   area   and  
a

way   from   naked   flames   and   sources  
o

f   sparks,   so   as   to   avoid   the   risk   of  
e

xplosion   or   fire.
Wash
  your   hands   after wards.

Never try to charge a frozen battery.
I f 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.
Charging the battery using
a battery charger
F Disconnect   the   battery   from   the   vehicle.
F  F ollow   the   instructions   for   use   provided   by

Some
  functions,   including   Stop   &   Start,  
a

re not available if the battery is not
sufficiently
 c

harged.Before disconnecting the battery
Wait 2 minutes after switching off the ignition before   disconnecting   the   battery.
Close

QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
There
 
is   a   difference   in  
s

ound
 
quality   between   the  
d

ifferent   audio   sources  
(

radio,
 U
SB...). For
  optimum   sound   quality,   the   audio   settings   (Volume,   Treble,  
M

edium,   Bass)   can   be   adapted   to   the   different   sound   sources,  
w

hich   may   result   in   audible   differences   when   changing   source  
(

radio,
 U
SB...). Check
  that   the   audio   settings   are   adapted   to  
t

he   sources   listened   to.   It   is   advisable   to   select  
a

utomatic   sound   adjustment   (Low,   Medium,  
Hig

h).
Check
  the   quality   and   format   of   your   recording.
With
 
the   engine   off,   the  
s

ystem
  switches   off   after   a  
f

ew
 
minutes   of   use. When
  the   engine   is   switched   off,   the   system's   operating   time  
d

epends   on   the   battery   charge.
The
  switch-off   is   normal:   the   system   changes   to   economy   mode  
a

nd   switches   off   to   preserve   the   state   of   charge   of   the   vehicle's  
b

attery. Start
