Towing The Vehicle - CITROEN C4 Handbook

Reconnecting the (+) terminal
► Raise lever A fully.
► Refit open clamp B on the (+) terminal.
► Push clamp B fully down.
► Lower lever A to lock clamp B.
► Depending on equipment, lower the plastic
cover on the (+) terminal.
Do not force the lever when pressing on
it, as if the clamp is not positioned
correctly, locking will then not be possible.
Start the procedure again.
Following reconnection
After reconnecting the battery, turn on the
ignition and wait 1 minute before starting the
engine, to enable the electronic systems to
initialise.
If minor problems nevertheless persist following
this operation, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Referring to the relevant section, reinitialise
certain equipment:
– Remote control key or electronic key
(depending on version).
– Sunroof.
– Electric windows.
– Date and time.
– Preset radio stations.
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 with the
vehicle immobilised, the duration of which
depends on the exterior temperature and the
state of charge of the battery (up to about 8
hours).

Observe the legislation in force in the
country where you are driving.
