Disconnecting the battery
In order to maintain an adequate state 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 period.
Before disconnecting the battery:
F close all openings (doors, tailgate, windows,
sunroof),
F switch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, wipers, lighting, ...),
F 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
F Raise the lever A fully to release the
clamp B.
F Remove the clamp B by lifting it off.
Reconnecting the (+) terminal
F Raise the lever A fully.
F Refit the open clamp B on the (+) terminal.
F Push the clamp B fully down.
F Lower the lever A to lock the clamp B.
Do not force the lever as locking will
not be possible if the clamp is not
positioned correctly; start the procedure
again.
In the event of a breakdown
Following reconnection of the
battery
After reconnecting the battery, switch on the
ignition and wait 1 minute before starting to
allow initialisation of the electronic systems.
However, if minor problems persist following
this operation, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Referring to the corresponding section, you
must yourself initialise or reset certain systems,
such as:
- the remote control or electronic key
(depending on version),
- the sunroof and its electric blind,
- the electric windows,
- the date and time,
- the radio preset 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 of immobilisation of the vehicle,
a period which depends on the ambient
temperature and the state of charge of
the battery (up to about 8 hours).
