Your vehicle’s electrical sys-
tem is designed to operate
with either standard or op-
tional equipment.
Before installing electrical equip-
ment or accessories on your vehi-
cle, consult a CITROËN dealer.
CITROËN declines all responsibil-
ity for the consequences and costs
that are caused by faults or repairs
on your vehicle resulting from the
installation of accessories that
are not supplied and/or not rec-
ommended by CITROËN and not
installed in conformity with its re-
quirements, particularly when the
total consumption of additional de-
vices exceeds 10 milliamperes.
The Maxi fuses give additional pro-
tection to electrical systems. any
work on them must be carried out
by a CITROËN dealer.

After a repair, carefully refi t the
cover.

If the cover is not correctly po-
sitioned or not properly closed,
this could cause serious prob-
lems on your vehicle. For the
same reason, take care not to
spill any liquid in the fusebox.

BATTERY
Procedure for charging your battery
when it is fl at or for starting the en-
gine using another battery. Access to the battery
V6 HDi engine
The battery is located under the
bonnet.
For access to it:

 open the bonnet using the interi-
or release lever, then the exterior
safety catch,

 secure the bonnet stay,

 remove the plastic cover to gain
access to the two terminals,

 unclip the fusebox to remove the
battery, if necessary. The battery is located in the boot under
the left-hand wing trim.
For access to it:

 open the boot,

 open the fl ap and remove 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 special
technology and specifi cation, for
which the involvement of a CITROËN
dealer is required when replacing or
disconnecting the battery.
Failure to observe this recommen-
dation may cause premature wear
of the battery.
After refi tting the battery, the Stop &
Start system will only be active after
a continuous period of immobilisa-
tion of the vehicle, a period which
depends on the climatic conditions
and the state of charge of the bat-
tery (up to about 8 hours).

Starting using another
battery

 Lift the pins to remove the front left
headlamp cover (V6 HDi engine).

 Connect the red cable to the
positive terminal (+) of the fl at
battery A , then to the positive
terminal (+) of the slave battery B .

 Connect one end of the green or
black cable to the negative ter-
minal (-) of the slave battery B .
V6 HDi engine: the positive ter- minal (-) is located under the red
cover.


Connect the other end of the green
or black cable to the earth point C
on the broken down vehicle.

 Operate the starter, let the engine run.

 Wait until the engine returns to
idle and disconnect the cables. Charging the battery
using a battery charger
The batteries contain harmful
substances such as sulphuric
acid and lead. They must be
disposed of in accordance with
regulations and must not, in any
circumstances, be discarded with
household waste.
Take used remote control batteries
and vehicle batteries to an autho-
rised collection point.
It is advisable to disconnect the
battery if the vehicle is to be left un-
used for more than one month. Do not disconnect the ter-
minals while the engine is
running.
Do not charge the batteries without
disconnecting the terminals fi rst.
Do not touch the clips during the
operation.
Do not lean over the batteries.
Disconnect the cables in the re-
verse order to connection, ensuring
that they do not touch.
Before disconnecting the battery
Wait 2 minutes after switching off
the ignition before disconnecting
the battery.
Close the windows and the doors
before disconnecting the battery.
Following reconnection of the
battery
Following reconnection of the bat-
tery, switch on the ignition and wait
1 minute before starting to permit
initialisation of the electronic sys-
tems. However, if slight malfunctions
remain following this operation, con-
tact a CITROËN dealer. Referring to the corresponding sec-
tion, you must yourself reinitialise:
- the remote control key,
- the glass panoramic roof blind,
- the GPS satellite navigation system.

 Disconnect the battery from the
vehicle.

 Follow the instructions for use
provided by the manufacturer of
the charger.

 Reconnect starting with the nega-
tive terminal (-).

 Check that the terminals and
connectors are clean. If they are
covered with sulphate (whitish or
greenish deposit), remove them
and clean them.
The Stop & Start battery does not
have to be disconnected for charging.

ENERGY ECONOMY MODE
System which manages the duration
of use of certain functions to con-
serve a suffi cient level of charge in
the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can
still use functions such as the audio
and telematics system, windscreen
wipers, dipped headlamps, courtesy
lights, etc. for a maximum combined
duration of thirty minutes.
Switching to economy mode
Once the thirty minutes are over,
a message appears on the multi-
function screen indicating that the
vehicle has switched to economy
mode and the active functions are
put on standby.
If the telephone is being used at this
time:
- it will be maintained for 5 minutes with radio-CD hands-free kit,
-
it will be interrupted after 10 minutes
with the MyWay audio-navigation
system,
- you can complete your call with the NaviDrive system.
This period may be signifi cantly re-
duced if the battery charge is low. Exiting economy mode
These functions are reactivated auto-matically next time the vehicle is
driven.

 In order to resume the use of
these functions immediately,
start the engine and let it run for
a few minutes.
The time available will then be
double the duration for which the
engine was left running. However,
this time will always be between fi ve
and thirty minutes.
A fl at battery prevents the en-
gine from starting (refer to the
corresponding paragraph).
