Some functions, including Stop & Start,

of charge for starting the engine, it is
recommended that the battery be disconnected
if the vehicle is taken out of service for a long

Before disconnecting the battery:
F close all openings (doors, tailgate, windows,
sunroof),
F switch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, wipers, lighting, etc.),
F switch off the ignition and wait for four
minutes.

Following reconnection of the battery
After reconnecting the battery, turn on the
ignition and wait 1 minute before starting
the engine, in order to enable the electronic
systems to initialise.

total distance recorder has reached
62 miles (100 km), it is necessary to wait
approx. 15 minutes before starting the
engine.
Never try to charge a frozen battery – risk
of explosion!
If the battery has frozen, have it checked
by a PEUGEOT dealer or by a qualified
workshop who will check that the internal
components have not been damaged and
that the container has not cracked, which
would mean a risk of toxic and corrosive
acid leaking.
At the battery, it is only necessary to
disconnect the (+) terminal.
However, if minor problems persist following
this operation, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Referring to the corresponding section, you
must yourself reinitialise or reset certain
systems, such as:
