Starting using another battery
If the vehicle’s battery is flat, the engine can be started using a backup battery (either external or from another vehicle) and jump leads or using a battery booster.
Never start the engine by connecting a battery charger.
Never use a 24 V or higher battery booster. Check beforehand that the backup battery has a nominal voltage of 12 V and a capacity at least equal to that of the discharged battery.
The two vehicles must not be in contact with each other.
Switch off all electricity-consuming equipment on both vehicles (audio system, wipers, lighting, etc.).
Make sure that the jump leads are well away from the engine’s moving parts (fan, belt, etc.).
Do not disconnect the (+) terminal while the engine is running.
- Connect the red cable to the (+) terminal of flat battery A (at the metal elbow), then to the (+) terminal of the backup battery B or of the booster.
- Connect one end of the green or black cable to the (-) terminal of the backup battery B or of the booster (or to an earth point on the assisting vehicle).
- Connect the other end of the green or black cable to the earth point C.
- Start the engine on the assisting vehicle and leave it running for a few minutes.
- Operate the starter on the broken down vehicle and let the engine run.
If the engine does not start immediately, 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, with the vehicle stationary, so that the battery reaches an adequate state of charge.
Driving immediately without having reached a sufficient level of charge may affect some of the vehicle’s functions (e.g. Stop & Start).
To disconnect, proceed in reverse order.
Automatic gearbox
Never try to start the engine by pushing the vehicle.
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:
- When using the vehicle mainly for short journeys.
- If the vehicle is to be taken off the road for several weeks.
Contact a CITROËN 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 the ignition off.
- 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.
If this label is present, use only a 12 V charger to avoid causing irreversible damage to the electrical components.
Frozen battery
Never try to charge a frozen battery – risk of explosion! If the battery has frozen, have it checked by a CITROËN 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 could lead to a risk of leakage of toxic and corrosive acid.
