In the event of a breakdown
Disconnecting the battery
In order to maintain an adequate state of
charge for starting the engine, we recommend
disconnecting the battery if the vehicle is to be
unused for an extended period.
Before disconnecting the battery:
► close all doors, windows and the tailgate and
sunroof,
► switch off all electricity consuming devices
(audio system, wipers, headlamps, etc.),
► switch off the ignition and wait for four
minutes.
At the battery, it is only necessary to disconnect
the (+) terminal.
Quick-release terminal clamp
Disconnecting the (+) terminal
► Raise the lever
A
fully to release the clamp
B
.
► Remove the clamp
B
by lifting it off.
Reconnecting the (+) terminal
► Operate the starter on the broken down
vehicle and let the engine run.
If the engine does not start straight away, switch
off the ignition and wait a few moments before
trying again.
► Wait for it to return to idle.
► Disconnect the jump leads
in reverse order
.
► Allow 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.
To disconnect, proceed in reverse order.
Some functions, including Stop & Start,
are not available if the battery is not
sufficiently charged.
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:
– using the vehicle mainly for short journeys;
– if the vehicle is to be taken off the road for
several weeks.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
To charge the vehicle's battery yourself,
use only a charger compatible with
lead-acid batteries with a nominal voltage of
12 V.
Follow the instructions provided by the
manufacturer of the charger.
Never reverse polarities.
It is not necessary to disconnect the
battery.
► Switch off the ignition.
► Switch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, lighting, wipers, etc.).
► Switch off charger
B
before connecting
the cables to the battery, so as to avoid any
dangerous sparks.
► Ensure that the charger cables are in good
condition.
► Lift the plastic cover on the (+) terminal, if the
vehicle has one.
► Connect the cables of charger
B
as follows:
• the positive (+) red cable to the (+) terminal
of battery
A
,
• the negative (-) black cable to earth point
C
on the vehicle.
► At the end of the charging operation, switch
off charger
B
before disconnecting the cables
from battery
A
.
24v
12v
If this label is present, 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 - risk
of explosion!
If the battery has frozen, have it checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or by a qualified workshop
who will verify that the internal components
have not been damaged and that the case
has not cracked, which would mean a risk of
toxic and corrosive acid leaking.
