Practical information161
208_en_Chap07_informations-pratiques_ed01-2016
Energy load
Load reduction mode
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.
Economy mode
System which manages the period of use of
certain functions to maintain an adequate state
of charge of the battery.
After switching off the engine and for a
maximum cumulative period of around
30 minutes, you can continue to use functions
such as the audio and telematic system, the
wipers, dipped beam, courtesy lamps,
...Entry into the mode
Once this time has elapsed, a message
advising the entry into energy economy mode
appears in the screen and the active functions
on put on standby.
If a telephone call is in progress at this time,
the connection via the audio system's hands-
free function will be maintained for around
10

minutes.
Coming out of the mode
These functions will be automatically restored
the next time the vehicle is used.
To restore the use of these functions
immediately, start the engine and allow it run
for at least 5 minutes. The engine will not start if the battery is
discharged.

In the event of a breakdown209
208_en_Chap08_cas-de-panne_ed01-2016
Starting using another battery
When your vehicle's battery is discharged, the
engine can be started using a slave battery
(external or on another vehicle) and jump lead
cables or a battery booster. F

R
aise the plastic cover on the (+) terminal,
if your vehicle has one.
F

C
onnect the red cable to the positive
terminal (+) of the flat battery A (at
the
metal elbow) then to the positive
terminal
(+) of the slave battery B or the
b o o s t e r.
F

C
onnect one end of the green or black
cable to the negative terminal (-) of the
slave battery B or the booster (or earth
point on the other vehicle).
F

C
onnect the other end of the green or black
cable to the earth point C on the broken
down vehicle.
Never try to start the engine by
connecting a battery charger.
Never use a 24 V or higher battery
b o o s t e r.
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.
The two vehicles must not be in contact
with each other.
Switch off the electrical consumers on
both vehicles (audio system, wipers,
lighting, ...).
Ensure that the jump lead cables do
not pass close to moving parts of the
engine (cooling fan, belts, ...).
Do not disconnect the (+) terminal when
the engine is running.
Some functions, including Stop & Start,
are not available if the battery is not
sufficiently charged.
F
S tart the engine of the vehicle with the
good battery and leave it running for a few
minutes.
F

O
perate the starter on the broken down
vehicle and let the engine run.
I

f the engine does not start straight away,
switch off the ignition and wait a few
moments before trying again.
F

W
ait until the engine returns to idle then
disconnect the jump lead cables in the
reverse order.
F

R
efit the plastic cover to the (+) terminal, if
your vehicle has one.
F

A
llow the engine to run for at least
30
minutes, by driving or with the vehicle
stationary, so that the battery reaches an
adequate state of charge.

In the event of a breakdown
210
208_en_Chap08_cas-de-panne_ed01-2016
If you envisage charging your vehicle's
battery yourself, use only a charger
compatible with lead-acid batteries of a
nominal voltage of 12 V. It is not necessary to disconnect the
battery.
Charging the battery using
a battery charger
For optimum service life of the battery, it is
essential to maintain an adequate state of
charge.
In some circumstances it may be necessary to
charge the battery:
-

i
f you use your vehicle essentially for short
journeys,
-

i
f the vehicle is to be taken off the road for
several weeks.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop. Follow the instructions for use provided
by the manufacturer of the charger.
Never reverse polarities.
If this label is present, it is essential
to use only a 12 V charger, to avoid
causing irreversible damage to the
electrical components related to the
Stop & Start system. Never try to charge a frozen battery.
If the battery has been frozen, have it
checked by a PEUGEOT 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.
F

S
witch off the ignition.
F

S
witch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, lighting, wipers, ...).
F

S
witch off the charger B before connecting
the cables to the battery, so as to avoid any
dangerous sparks.
F

E
nsure that the charger cables are in good
condition. F
R aise the plastic cover, if your vehicle has
one, on the (+) terminal.
F

C
onnect the charger B cables as follows:
-

t
he positive (+) red cable to the
(+)
terminal of the battery A,
-

t
he negative (-) black cable to the earth
point C on the vehicle.
F

A
t the end of the charging operation, switch
off the charger B before disconnecting the
cables from the battery A .

In the event of a breakdown211
208_en_Chap08_cas-de-panne_ed01-2016
Disconnecting the battery
It is recommended that the battery be
disconnected if the vehicle is not to be used
for a very long period, so as to maintain an
adequate state of charge for starting the
engine.
Before disconnecting the battery:
F
c
lose all openings (doors, boot, windows,
roof),
F

s
witch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, wipers, lighting...),
F

s
witch off the ignition and then wait
four


minutes.
At the battery, simply detach the (+) terminal.
The Stop & Start system may not be
operational during the trip following the
first engine start.
In this case, the system will only be
available again after a continuous
period of immobilisation of the vehicle,
a period which depends on the ambient
temperature and the state of charge of
the battery (up to about 8 hours).
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 PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Referring to the corresponding section, you
must yourself reinitialise (depending on
version):

F Raise the lever D fully to release the cable terminal clamp E .
Reconnecting the (+) cable
F Position the open clamp E of the cable on
the positive post (+) of the battery.
F

P
ress vertically on the clamp E to position
it correctly on the battery.
F

L
ock the clamp by spreading the
positioning lug and then lowering
the lever D .
Do not apply excessive force on the
tab as locking will not be possible if the
clamp is not positioned correctly; start
the procedure again.
