BATTERY
This is housed in a compartment located
underneath the oor, in front of the front right seat.
Before disconnecting the battery, you must
wait for 2 minutes after switching off the
ignition.
Never disconnect a terminal when the
engine is running.
Never charge a battery without first
disconnecting the terminals.
After every reconnection of the battery,
switch on the ignition and wait 1 minute
before starting to allow the electronic
systems to be initialised. If some problems
persist after this operation, please contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
It is advisable to disconnect the battery
if the vehicle is not to be used for a
period of more than one month.
To charge the battery using a battery
charger
- Disconnect the battery,
- Follow the instructions for use given by
the battery charger manufacturer,
- Reconnect starting with the negative (-)
terminal,
- Check that the terminals and connectors
are clean. If they are covered with
sulphate (white or greenish deposit),
disconnect them and clean them.
To start the vehicle from another
battery
- Connect the red cable to the positive (+)
terminals of the two batteries,
- Connect one end of the green or black
cable to the negative (-) terminal of the
slave battery,
- Connect the other end of the green or
black cable to an earth point on the
broken down vehicle as far as possible
from the battery,
- Operate the starter, let the engine run,
- Wait for the engine to return to idle, then
disconnect the cables.
The presence of this label indicates
the use of a 12 V lead-acid battery
with special technology and specification,
for which the involvement of a PEUGEOT
dealer or qualified workshop is required
when replacing or disconnecting the battery.
Failure to observe this recommendation may
cause premature ageing of the battery.
