PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Starting using another battery

 Connect the red cable to the posi-
tive terminal (+) of the fl at battery A ,
then to the positive terminal (+) of
the slave battery B . BATTERY
Procedure for charging your battery
when it is fl at or for starting the engine
using another battery.
The battery is located under the bonnet.
To gain access to it:

 open the bonnet using the interior
release lever, then the exterior safe-
ty catch,

 secure the bonnet stay,

 unclip the control unit housing 1 lo-
cated to the right of the battery,

 unclip the fusebox 2 located on top

Access to the battery

The presence of this label, in
particular with the Stop & Start
system, indicates the use of a
12 V lead-acid battery with spe-
cial technology and specifi cation;
the involvement of a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop is
essential when replacing or dis-
connecting the battery.
Failure to observe this recom-
mendation may cause prema-
ture wear of the battery.
After refi tting the battery, the
Stop & Start system will only be
active after a continuous period
of immobilisation of the vehicle,
a period which depends on the
climatic conditions and the state
of charge of the battery (up to
about 8 hours).
