To start the vehicle from another
battery, use the front additional
terminal:

 open the bonnet,

 remove the left side cover,

 use the two additional (+) and (-)
terminals located under the bonnet
and only these,


open the red cover of the (+) terminal,

 connect the red cable between the
(+) terminal and the (+) terminal of
the slave battery,

 connect the green or black cable
between the (-) terminal and the
negative (-) terminal of the slave
battery,

 start the engine and let it run,

 wait for the engine to return to idle
then disconnect the cables,


close the red cover of the (+) terminal,

 rei t the left side cover,

 close the bonnet. Never disconnect a terminal
when the engine is running.
Close the windows and sun-
roof fully before disconnecting
the battery.
It is imperative that cables of professional
quality and suitable cross-section are
used; for further information, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer. Batteries contain harmful
substances such as sulphu-
ric 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 batteries to an approved
collection point.
To charge the battery:

 open the bonnet,

 remove the left side cover,

 use the two additional (+) and (-)
terminals located under the bonnet,

However, if slight difi culties are ex-
perienced after this, please contact a
PEUGEOT dealer. If electrical work is
carried out, disconnect the battery.
When charging or replacement of the
battery is necessary, do not close the
boot as, since it is only opened elec-
trically, it would then be necessary to
use the emergency control (see cor-
responding section).

the (+) and (-) terminals located un-
der the bonnet if there is no battery
in the boot (risk of short circuit).
