PRACTICAL INFORMATION

12 V BATTERY

Access to the battery

The battery is located under the bonnet.

To gain access to it:

 open the bonnet using the interior

release lever, then the exterior safe-

ty catch,

 secure the bonnet stay,

 remove the plastic cover on the (+)

terminal.

The presence of this label, in par-

ticular with the Stop & Start system,

indicates the use of a 12 V lead-acid

battery with special technology and

speciﬁ cation; the involvement of

a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualiﬁ ed

workshop is essential when replac-

ing or disconnecting the battery.

After reﬁ tting the battery, the

Stop & Start system will only be

active after a continuous period of

immobilisation of the vehicle, a pe-

riod which depends on the climatic

conditions and the state of charge

of the battery (up to about 8 hours).

Procedure for starting the engine us-

ing another battery or charging a dis-

charged battery.

Before doing any work
Immobilise the vehicle: apply the

parking brake, put the gearbox into

neutral (or position

P if your ve-

hicle has an automatic gearbox),

then switch off the ignition.

Check that all electrical systems

are off.

Do not reverse the polarity and

use only a 12 V charger.

Do not disconnect the terminals

while the engine is running.

Do not charge the batteries with-

out disconnecting the terminals

ﬁ rst.

Ensure that the battery posts and

terminals are clean. If covered in

sulphate (white or green deposits),

remove and clean them.

The batteries contain harmful sub-

stances such as sulphuric acid

and lead. They must be disposed

of in accordance with regulations

and must not, in any circumstanc-

es, be discarded with household

waste.

Take used remote control batter-

ies and vehicle batteries to a spe-

cial collection point.

162

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

Disconnecting the (+) cable
 Raise the locking tab

D fully to re-

lease the cable terminal clamp

E .

Reconnecting the (+) cable
 Position the open clamp

E of the

cable on the positive post (+) of the

battery.

 Press vertically on the clamp

E to

position it correctly on the battery.

 Lock the clamp by spreading the po-

sitioning lug and then lowering the

tab

D .

Do not apply excessive force on the

tab as locking will not be possible

if the clamp is not positioned cor-

rectly; start the procedure again.

Starting using another battery

When your vehicle's battery is dis-

charged, the engine can be started using

a slave battery (external or on another

v ehicle) and jump lead cables.

First check that the slave battery

has a nominal voltage of 12 V and

a capacity at least equal to that of

the discharged battery.

Do not try to start the engine by

connecting a battery charger.

Do not disconnect the (+) terminal

when the engine is running.

 Connect the red cable to the posi-

tive terminal (+) of the ﬂ at battery

A ,

then to the positive terminal (+) of

the slave battery

B .

 Connect one end of the green or

black cable to the negative termi-

nal (-) of the slave battery

B (or

earth point on the other vehicle).

 Connect the other end of the green

or black cable to the earth point

on the broken down vehicle (or on

the engine mounting).

 Start the engine of the vehicle with

the good battery and leave it run-

ning for a few minutes.

 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 until the engine returns to idle

then disconnect the jump lead ca-

bles in the reverse order.

163

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

With Stop & Start, the battery does

not have to be disconnected for

charging.

Charging the battery using

a battery charger

When your vehicle's battery is dis-

charged or when the vehicle is to be

out of use for a prolonged period, you

can charge the battery using a battery

charger.

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-

ﬁ ed workshop for the speciﬁ cation of

chargers compatible with your battery.

Before disconnecting
 Go to the battery.

 Close the retractable roof.

 Check that the doors and boot are

closed but not locked.

 Switch off the ignition and wait for at

least four minutes.

If the vehicle is to not going to be used for

more than a month, it is recommended

that the battery be disconnected.

Charging
 Disconnect the (+) terminal.

 Follow the instructions for use pro-

vided by the manufacturer of the

charger.

 Connect the charger's red cable to

the (+) terminal of the battery, then

the black cable to the (-) terminal.

 Once the battery is fully charged,

disconnect the charger cables in re-

verse order.

Charging should be carried out in

a well-ventilated area and away

from naked ﬂ ames and sources of

sparks, so as to avoid any risk of

explosion and ﬁ re.

Do not try to charge a frozen bat-

tery; ﬁ rst thaw it out so as to avoid

the risk of explosion.

If the battery had frozen, before

charging, have it checked by a

PEUGEOT dealer or qualiﬁ ed

workshop who will ensure that

the internal components have not

been damaged and that the casing

is not cracked, which would cause

a leak of toxic and corrosive acid.

Some functions are not available

if the battery is not sufﬁ ciently

charged.

Reinitialisation after

reconnection

After any reconnection of the battery,

switch on the ignition and wait at least

one minute before starting, to allow time

for the initialisation of the electronic sys-

tems.

By referring to the corresponding sec-

tions, you should set or initialise the fol-

lowing systems yourself:

remote control,

- electric windows and automatic par-

tial opening of door glasses,

time and date,

audio and navigation system set-

tings.

Check that no alert message or

warning lamp comes on after

switching on the ignition.

However, if minor problems persist

after carrying out these operations,

contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a

qualiﬁ ed workshop.

164

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

Observe this minimum period of

engine running to maintain the cor-

rect level of charge in the battery.

Do not repeatedly restart of the en-

gine to restore immediate use of

systems.

If a telephone call is being made at this

time, it will be maintained for 5 min-

utes with the hands-free kit of your

PEUGEOT Connect Sound (RD5)

or PEUGEOT Connect Navigation

(RT6).

ENERGY ECONOMY MODE

System which manages the duration of use of certain functions to conserve a suf-

ﬁ cient level of charge in the battery.

After the engine has stopped, you can still use functions such as the audio and

telematics system, windscreen wipers, dipped beam headlamps, courtesy lamps,

etc. for a maximum combined duration of thirty minutes.

This period may be reduced considerably if the battery is not fully charged.

Coming out of economy mode

These functions are reactivated auto-

matically next time the vehicle is started.

To resume the use of these functions

immediately, start the engine and let it

run for at least 5 minutes.

Going into to economy mode

Once this period has elapsed, a mes-

sage appears in the multifunction

screen indicating that the vehicle has

gone into economy mode and the ac-

tive functions are put on standby.

System which manages the use of

certain functions in relation to the level

of charge remaining in the battery.

When the vehicle is being driven, the

load reduction function temporarily

deactivates certain functions, such as

the air conditioning, the "AIRWAVE"

systems, the heated rear screen...

Certain deactivated functions are reac-

tivated automatically as soon as condi-

tions permit.

A ﬂ at battery prevents the engine

from starting (refer to the "12 V bat-

tery" section).

165

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

CHANGING A WIPER BLADE

Removing

 Raise the corresponding wiper arm.

 Unclip the wiper blade and remove it.

Fitting



TOWING THE VEHICLE

Procedure for having your vehicle

towed or for towing another vehicle us-

ing a removable towing eye.

Access to the tools

The towing eye is installed in the boot

under the ﬂ oor.

For access to it:

 change to the "coupé" conﬁ guration,

 open the boot,

 raise the ﬂ oor,

 secure it by hooking its handle on

the boot seal,



remove the towing eye from the

holder.

General recommendations

Observe the legislation in force in

your country.

Ensure that the weight of the tow-

ing vehicle is higher than that of the

towed vehicle.

The driver must remain at the

wheel of the towed vehicle and

must have a valid driving licence.

When towing a vehicle with all four

wheels on the ground, always use

an approved towing bar; rope and

straps are prohibited.

The towing vehicle must move off

gently.

When towing a vehicle with the

engine off, there is no longer any

power assistance for braking or

steering.

In the following cases, you must

a lways call on a professional re-

covery service:

- vehicle broken down on a mo-

torway or fast road,

four-wheel drive vehicle,

- when it is not possible to put the

gearbox into neutral, unlock the

steering, or release the parking

brake,

- towing with only two wheels on

the ground,

where there is no approved

towing bar available...

166

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

Towing your vehicle

 On the front bumper, unclip the cover

by pressing on its left part.

 Screw the towing eye in fully.

 Install the towing bar.

 Place the gear lever in neutral (posi-

tion

N on the automatic gearbox).

 Release the steering by turning the

ignition key one position and re-

lease the parking brake.

 Switch on the hazard warning lamps

on the towed vehicle.

 Move off gently and drive slowly for

a limited distance.

Failure to observe this instruction

could result in damage to certain

components (braking, transmis-

sion...) and the absence of braking

assistance the next time the en-

gine is started.

 On the rear bumper, unclip the cover

by pressing at the bottom.

 Screw the towing eye in fully.

 Install the towing bar.

 Switch on the hazard warning lamps

on both vehicles.

 Move off gently and drive slowly for

a limited distance.

Towing another vehicle

167

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

TOWING A TRAILER

Your vehicle is primarily designed for

transporting people and luggage, but it

may also be used for towing a trailer.

Distribution of loads
 Distribute the load in the trailer so

that the heaviest items are as close

as possible to the axle and the nose

weight approaches the maximum

permitted without exceeding it.

Air density decreases with altitude, thus

reducing engine performance. Above

1000 metres, the maximum towed load

must be reduced by 10 % for every

1000 metres of altitude.

Refer to the "Technical data" section for

details of the weights and towed loads

which apply to your vehicle.

Side wind


Take into account the increased

sensitivity to side wind.

Towbar suitable for the attachment of a

trailer or installation of a bicycle carrier,

with additional lighting and signalling.

Driving advice

We recommend the use of genuine

PEUGEOT towbars and their har-

nesses that have been tested and

approved from the design stage

of your vehicle, and that the ﬁ t-

ting of the towbar is entrusted to

a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualiﬁ ed

workshop.

If the towbar is not ﬁ tted by a

PEUGEOT dealer, it is imperative

that it is ﬁ tted in accordance with

the vehicle manufacturer's instruc-

tions.

Driving with a trailer places greater de-

mands on the towing vehicle and the

driver must take particular care.

In all cases, keep a check on the cool-

ant temperature.

Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking

distance.

To avoid overheating of the brakes on a

long mountain type of descent, the use

of engine braking is recommended.

Tyres
 Check the tyre pressures of the tow-

ing vehicle and of the trailer, observ-

ing the recommended pressures.

Lighting
 Check the electrical lighting and sig-

nalling on the trailer.

The rear parking sensors will be de-

activated automatically if a genuine

PEUGEOT towbar is used.

 If the warning lamp and the

STOP warning lamp come

on, stop the vehicle and

switch off the engine as

soon as possible.

The maximum towed load on a long in-

cline depends on the gradient and the

ambient temperature.

Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases

the temperature of the coolant.

As the fan is electrically controlled, its

cooling capacity is not dependent on

the engine speed.

 To lower the engine speed, reduce

your speed.

168

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

VERY COLD CLIMATE SCREEN *

Removable protective screen which

prevents the accumulation of snow at

the radiator cooling fan.

Fitting

 Offer up the very cold climate screen

to the front of the lower section of

the front bumper.

 Press around its edge to engage its

ﬁ xing clips one by one.

Do not forget to remove the very

cold climate screen when:

the ambient temperature ex-

ceeds 10 °C,
