In the event of a breakdown
8Electronic control units/LED
technology headlamps
Never connect the negative jump lead to the
metal part of the electronic control units
or at
the back of the headlamps.
Risk of destroying the electronic control
units
and/or headlamps!
Connect to the remote earth point provided
for this purpose.
Automatic gearbox
Never try to start the engine by pushing
the vehicle.
Natural battery discharge
In certain severe climatic conditions
(temperature, humidity), the battery can
discharge after 2 months, even with terminals
disconnected.
To store the vehicle or the battery, use a
location protected from heat and humidity.
Battery power loss
A battery can be discharged due to
power losses:


Continuous electrical consumption of a
component (e.g. alarm, anti-theft device).



Device powered up when the engine is off
(e.g. audio system, USB charger).



Electrical leakage due to poor insulation of
electrical components.
If the power loss cannot be located, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop to
have the vehicle's electrical system checked.
Battery charge check
For batteries with a charge status
indicator, read the value indicated on the
battery directly.
For other types of batteries, the check can be
carried out with a voltmeter:


Connect the voltmeter to the battery
terminals (respect the polarities).



Read the voltage value.



T

urn the main beam headlamps on.
If the battery voltage remains at or above 10
V without rapidly decreasing, the charge is
correct.
If the battery voltage drops quickly or is less
than 10 V, the battery must be recharged or
replaced.
Symbols
No sparks or naked flames, no smoking.
Always protect your eyes. Explosive gases can cause blindness and injury.
Keep the vehicle's battery out of the reach
of children.
The vehicle's battery contains sulphuric acid which can make you go blind or
cause severe burns.
For more information, refer to the
handbook.
Explosive gases can be present close to
the battery.
Accessing the battery
The battery is located under the bonnet.

Starting using another
battery
If the vehicle's battery is flat, the engine can be
started using a backup battery (either external or
from another vehicle) and jump leads or using a
battery booster.
Never start the engine by connecting a
battery charger.
Never use a 24
V or higher battery booster.
Check beforehand that the backup battery
has a nominal voltage of 12
V and a capacity
at least equal to that of the discharged
battery.
The two vehicles must not be in contact with
each other.
Switch off all electricity-consuming equipment
on both vehicles (audio system, wipers,
lighting, etc.).
Make sure that the jump leads are well away
from the engine’s moving parts (fan, belt,
etc.).
Do not disconnect the (+) terminal while the
engine is running.
