►


Refit the plastic cover to the (+) terminal, if
the vehicle has one.
►


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).
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:
•

the positive (+) red cable to the (+) terminal
of battery

A.
•

the negative (-) black cable to the (-) terminal
of battery

A.
►

At the end of the charging operation, switch
off charger B

before disconnecting the cables
from battery A.
If this label is present, use only a 12 V
charger to avoid causing irreversible
damage to the electrical components.

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, boot, windows,
roof).

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.
Referring to the relevant section, reinitialise
certain equipment:
–

Remote control key or electronic key
(depending on version).
–

Sunroof.
–

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 the vehicle
General recommendations
Observe the legislation in force in the
country where you are driving.
Ensure that the weight of the towing vehicle is
higher than that of the towed vehicle.
The driver must remain at the wheel of the
towed vehicle and must have a valid driving
licence.

before issuing a voice command, ask any
other passengers to refrain from speaking.

Danish, Dutch, English, Farsi, French,
German, Italian, Norwegian, Polish,
Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Swedish,

previously chosen and set in the system.
For some voice commands, there are
alternative synonyms.

When voice commands are activated, by
briefly pressing the button, help is
displayed on the touch screen, offering various
menus and enabling voice-based interaction with
the system.


A number of commands are available when a
menu is selected.


Press the Push To Talk button and tell me
what you'd like after the tone. Remember
you can interrupt me at any time by pressing this
button. If you press it again while I'm waiting for
you to speak, it'll end the conversation. If you
need to start over, say "cancel". If you want to
undo something, say "undo". And to get
information and tips at any time, just say "help".
If you ask to me do something and there's some
information missing that I need, I'll give you
some examples or take you through it step by
step. There's more information available in
"novice" mode. You can set the dialogue mode to
"expert" when you feel comfortable.
