12 V battery
Access to the battery
The battery is located under the bonnet.
To gain access to it:
F open the bonnet using the interior release
lever, then the exterior safety catch,
F secure the bonnet stay,
F remove the plastic cover on the (+)
terminal.
The presence of this label, in particular with the
Stop & Start system, indicates the use of a 12 V
lead-acid battery with special technology and
specification; the involvement of a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop is essential
when replacing or disconnecting the battery.
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.
Procedure for starting the engine using another
battery or charging a discharged battery.
Disconnecting the (+) cable
F Raise the locking tab 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 Press vertically on the clamp E to position
it correctly on the battery.
F Lock the clamp by spreading the
positioning lug and then lowering the tab 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.
