Fuses
Changing a fuse
All work must be carried out only by a

The replacement of a fuse by a third party
could cause a serious malfunction of the
vehicle.
Installing electrical accessories
The vehicle's electrical system is
designed to operate with standard or optional
equipment.
Before fitting other electrical equipment
or accessories to your vehicle, contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
CITROËN accepts no responsibility for
the cost incurred in repairing the vehicle
or for rectifying malfunctions resulting from
the installation of accessories not supplied or
not recommended by CITROËN and not
installed in accordance with its
recommendations, in particular when the
combined power consumption of all of the
additional equipment connected exceeds 10
milliamperes.

Frozen battery
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 verify that the internal components
have not been damaged and that the case
has not cracked, which could lead to a risk of
leakage of toxic and corrosive acid.
Disconnecting/reconnecting
the battery
In order to maintain an adequate state of
charge for starting the engine, we recommend disconnecting the battery if the vehicle is to be
unused for an extended period.
Before disconnecting the battery:
►
Close all openings (doors, tailgate, windows,
roof).
►
Switch off all electricity-consuming devices
(audio system, wipers, lamps, etc.).
►
Switch off the ignition and wait for 4
minutes.
After accessing 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

by lifting it off.
Reconnecting the (+) terminal
► Raise lever A fully.
► Refit 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 when pressing on
it, as if the clamp is not positioned
correctly, locking will then not be possible.
Start the procedure again.
Following 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 CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
218

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.
