273Practical information

Charging the battery using
a battery charger

If the battery of your vehicle is flat or prior
to taking the vehicle out of ser vice for an extended period, you can charge the battery
using a battery charger.
For information on the specification of batterychargers compatible with your battery, refer to
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.

The Stop & Start battery does not haveto be disconnected for charging.


Reinitialisation after
reconnection
After any reconnection of the battery, switch on
the ignition and wait at least one minute before
starting, to allow time for the initialisation of theelectronic systems.
By referring to the corresponding sections, you should set or initialise the following systems yourself:


- one-touch electric windows,

- time and date,

- audio and navigation system settings.

It is recommended that the battery be disconnected if the vehicle is not be used for more than a month.

Check that no aler t message or warning lamp comes on after switching on the ignition.
However, if minor problems persist after carrying out these operations, contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.



Before disconnecting
)Go to the battery. )Check that all of the openings - doors, boot... - are closed but not locked.)Wait at least four minutes after switchingoff the ignition.
Charging
)
Disconnect the (+)terminal. )
Follow the instructions on use provided by
the manufacturer of the charger.) Connect the red cable of the charger to the (+) post of the battery, then the black cable
to the (-) terminal.) Once charging is complete, disconnect thecharger cables in reverse order.
The charging operation must be carried outin a well ventilated area and well away from naked flames and sources of sparks, so as to avoid any risk of explosion and fire. Do not try to charge a frozen battery; the
battery must first be thawed out to avoid any risk of explosion. If the battery hasfrozen, before charging, have it checkedby a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop, who will ensure that the internal components have not been damaged and that the casing is not cracked, which wouldintroduce the risk of a leak of toxic and corrosive acid.
