223Practical information
After refitting the battery, the Stop &
Start system will only be active after a
continuous period of immobilisation of the
vehicle, a period which depends on the
climatic conditions and the state of charge
of the battery (up to about 8 hours).
With Stop & Start, the battery does not
have to be disconnected for charging.
Starting using another
battery
First check that the slave battery has a
nominal voltage of 12 V and a capacity
at least equal to that of the discharged
battery.
Do not try to start the engine by
connecting a battery charger.
Do not disconnect the (+) terminal when
the engine is running.
Connect the red cable to the positive
terminal (+) of the flat battery A
, then to the
positive terminal (+) of the slave battery B
.
Connect one end of the green or black
cable to the negative terminal (-) of the
slave battery B
(or earth point on the other
vehicle).
Connect the other end of the green or black
cable to the earth point C
on the broken
down vehicle (or on the engine mounting).
Start the engine of the vehicle with the
good battery and leave it running for a
few minutes.
Operate the starter on the broken down
vehicle and let the engine run
If the engine does not star t straight away,
switch off the ignition and wait a few
moments before trying again.
Wait until the engine returns to idle then
disconnect the jump lead cables in the
reverse order.
Disconnect the battery from the vehicle.
Follow the instructions for use provided by
the manufacturer of the charger.
Connect the battery starting with the
negative terminal (-).
Check that the terminals and connectors
are clean. If they are covered with sulphate
(whitish or greenish deposit), remove them

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 a special collection point.
It is advisable to disconnect the battery
if the vehicle is to be left unused for
more than one month.
Do not push the vehicle to start the
engine if you have an electronic or
automatic gearbox.
Protect your eyes and face before
handling the battery.
All operations on the battery must be
carried out in a well ventilated area and
away from naked flames and sources
of sparks, so as to avoid the risk of
explosion or fire.
Do not try to charge a frozen battery;
the battery must first be thawed out to
avoid the risk of explosion. If the battery
has been frozen, before charging have
it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop who will check that
the internal components have not been
damaged and the casing is not cracked,
which could cause a leak of toxic and
corrosive acid.
Do not reverse the polarity and use only
a 12 V charger.
Do not disconnect the terminals while
the engine is running.
Do not charge the batteries without
disconnecting the terminals first.
Wash your hands after wards.
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 battery, switch on
the ignition and wait 1 minute before starting to
permit initialisation of the electronic systems.
However, if problems remain following this
operation, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Referring to the corresponding section,
you must yourself reinitialise (depending on
version):
- the remote control key,
- the electric blind(s),
- ...
Some functions are not available if the
battery is not sufficiently charged.

System which manages the use of certain
functions according to the level of charge
remaining in the battery.
When the vehicle is being driven, the load
reduction function temporarily deactivates
certain functions, such as the air conditioning,
the heated rear screen...
The deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically as soon as conditions permit.
System which manages the duration of use of
certain functions to conser ve a sufficient 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

QUESTION
ANSWER
SOLUTION
With the engine off, the
system switches off after
a few minutes of use. When the engine is switched off, the system's operating time depends on
the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the system switches to economy mode and
switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery. Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery
charge.
Playback of my USB
memory stick starts only
after a very long wait
(around 2 to 3 minutes). Some fi les supplied with the memory stick may greatly slow down access
to reading the memory stick (multiplication by 10 of the catalogue time). Delete the fi les supplied with the memory stick
and limit the number of sub-folders in the fi le
structure on the memory stick.
When I connect my
iPhone as telephone and
to the USB port at the
same time, I am unable
to play the music fi les. When the iPhone connects automatically as a telephone, it forces the
streaming function. The streaming function takes the place of the USB
function which is then not useable, there is a period without sound of the
track being played with Apple
®
players. Disconnect and reconnect to the USB port (the
USB function takes priority over streaming).
When I connect my Apple
®
player or my BlackBerry ®
to the USB port, I have
alert messages on the
current consumption by
the USB port. When charging, the current consumption of these smartphones is greater
than the rating of the USB port, which is 500 mA.
