Removing - retting the battery*
* Valid only for Saloon and SW.
This procedure allows you to safely remove the
battery when needed to change a failed bulb.
You can also call on a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop to carry
out this procedure.
Before removal
- Place the vehicle in a ventilated location,
with free access and preferably on a level
surface.
- Apply the parking brake.
- Put the gear lever into neutral (position N
for an automatic or electronic gearbox).
- If the vehicle has an alarm, leave the
bonnet open to avoid triggering the alarm.
- Leave at least one window open if in a
secure location, otherwise lock all the
doors and the boot.
- If the vehicle has a motorised tailgate,
it will not be possible to open it after
disconnecting the battery.
- Switch off the ignition and remove the key.
- If the vehicle has Keyless Entry and
Starting, take the remote control at least
3 metres away from the vehicle.
- Wait about 4 minutes (or 12 minutes with
an automatic or electronic gearbox) before
disconnecting the battery.
