Starting and switching off
BATTERY STANDBY SYSTEM
If the vehicle is not to be used for a
prolonged period, such as for winter storage,
for example, it is strongly recommended that
the battery be placed on standby in order to
protect it and optimise its service life.
To place the battery on standby:
- Switch off the engine ( STOP position).
- Press the red button, then turn the key
to the BATT position.
The battery goes into standby about
7 minutes later.
This time is necessary to:
- Allow the user to get out of the vehicle
and lock the doors with the remote
control.
- Ensure that all of the vehicle's electrical
systems are deactivated.
When the battery is on standby,
access to the vehicle is only possible
by unlocking the vehicle using the key in the
lock barrel in the driver's door.
After placing the battery on standby,
settings (time, date, radio station
presets...) are memorised.
To take the battery out of standby:
- Turn the key to the MAR position.
- Start the engine normally ( AV V position).
