Access to the battery
Procedure for starting the engine using another battery or charging a discharged battery.
general points
Lead-acid starter batteries
Batteries contain harmful substances
such as sulphuric acid and lead.
They must be disposed of in
accordance with regulations and must
not, in any circumstances, be discarded
with household waste.
Take used remote control batteries and
vehicle batteries to a special collection
point.
Versions equipped with Stop &
Start are fitted with a 12 V lead-acid
battery of specific technology and
specification.
Its replacement should be carried
out only by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Protect your eyes and face before
handling the battery.
All operations on the battery must be
carried out in a well ventilated area and
away from naked flames and sources
of sparks, so as to avoid the risk of
explosion or fire.
Wash your hands afterwards.
If you have an electronic or automatic
gearbox, never try to start the engine
by pushing the vehicle.
The (-) battery terminal is not accessible.
A remote earthing point is located on the front
left-hand wing panel.
DS3_en_Chap08_info-pratiques_ed02-2015
Some functions, including Stop & Start,
are not available if the battery is not
sufficiently charged.
Never try to start the engine by
connecting a battery charger.
Never use a 24 V or higher battery
booster.
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.
The two vehicles must not be in contact
with each other.
Switch off the electrical consumers on
both vehicles (audio system, wipers,
lighting, ...).
Ensure that the jump lead cables do
not pass close to moving parts of the
engine (cooling fan, belts, ...).
Do not disconnect the (+) terminal when
the engine is running.
Starting using another
battery
When your vehicle's battery is discharged, the
engine can be started using a slave battery
(external or on another vehicle) and jump lead
cables or a battery booster.
F
Raise the plastic cover on the (+) terminal,
if your vehicle has one.
F Connect the red cable to the positive
terminal (+) of the flat battery A (at the
metal elbow) then to the positive terminal
(+) of the slave battery B or the booster.
F
Connect one end of the green or black
cable to the negative terminal (-) of the
slave battery B
or the booster (or earth
point on the other vehicle).
F
Connect the other end of the green or black
cable to the earth point C
on the broken
down vehicle.
F
Start the engine of the vehicle with the
good battery and leave it running for
a few minutes.
F
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.
F
Wait until the engine returns to idle then
disconnect the jump lead cables in the
reverse order.
F
Refit the plastic cover to the (+) terminal, if
your vehicle has one.
F
Allow the engine to run for at least
30 minutes, by driving or with the vehicle
stationary, so that the battery reaches an
adequate state of charge.
229
Practical information
DS3_en_Chap08_info-pratiques_ed02-2015
If you envisage charging your vehicle's
battery yourself, use only a charger
compatible with lead-acid batteries of a
nominal voltage of 12 V.
If this label is present, it is essential
to use only a 12 V charger, to avoid
causing irreversible damage to the
electrical components related to the
Stop & Start system.
Follow the instructions for use provided
by the manufacturer of the charger.
Never reverse polarities.
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:
-
if you use your vehicle essentially for short
journeys,
- if the vehicle is to be taken off the road for
several weeks.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
It is not necessary to disconnect the
battery.
F
Switch off the ignition.
F
Switch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, lighting, wipers, ...).
F
Switch off the charger B before connecting
the cables to the battery, so as to avoid any
dangerous sparks.
F
Ensure that the charger cables are in good
condition.
F
Connect the charger B cables as follows:
- the positive (+) red cable to the (+)
terminal of the battery A,
- the negative (-) black cable to the earth
point C
on the vehicle.
F
At the end of the charging operation, switch
off the charger B before disconnecting the
cables from the battery A
.
Never try to charge a frozen battery.
If the battery has been frozen, have
it checked by a CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop, who will check
that the internal components have not
been damaged and the casing is not
cracked, which could cause a leak of
toxic and corrosive acid.
DS3_en_Chap08_info-pratiques_ed02-2015
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.
Wait 2 minutes after switching off the ignition
before disconnecting the battery:
F
close all openings (doors, boot, windows,
roof (for Cabrio versions)),
F
switch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, wipers, lighting, ...),
F
switch off the ignition and wait for
four minutes.
Having exposed the battery, it is only
necessary to disconnect the (+) terminal.
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 CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Referring to the corresponding section, you
must yourself reinitialise or reset certain
systems, such as:
-
the remote control,
-
the electric windows
-
the date and time,
- the radio preset stations.
Quick release terminal
Disconnecting the (+) terminal
F Raise the lever A fully to release the
clamp B
.
Reconnecting the (+) terminal
F Position the open clamp B of the cable on
the positive post (+) of the battery.
F Press down on the clamp to position it
correctly on the battery post.
F
Lock the clamp by lowering the lever A.
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).
Do not force the lever as locking
will not be possible if the clamp is
not positioned correctly; start the
procedure again.

Load reduction mode
System which manages the use of certain
functions according 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 heated rear screen...
The deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically as soon as conditions permit.
Energy economy mode
System which manages the period of use of certain functions to conserve a sufficient level of
charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can still use functions such as the audio equipment, windscreen
wipers, dipped beam headlamps, courtesy lamps, etc. for a maximum combined period of
thirty minutes.
This period may be greatly reduced if
the battery is not fully charged.
A flat battery prevents the engine from
starting.
If the telephone is being used at the
same time, it will be interrupted after
10 minutes.
Switching to economy mode
Once this period has elapsed, a message
appears in the screen indicating that the
vehicle has switched to economy mode and the
active functions are put on standby.
Exiting economy mode
These functions are reactivated automatically
the next time the vehicle is driven.
F In order to resume the use of these
functions immediately, start the engine and
let it run for a few minutes.
The time available to you will then be double
the period for which the engine is left running.
However, this period will always be between
five and thirty minutes.

When towing a vehicle with all four wheels on the ground, always use an approved towing
arm; 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 always call on a professional recovery service:
- vehicle broken down on a motorway 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 arm available...

Distribution of loads
F 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
1 000 metres, the maximum towed load must
be reduced by 10 % for every 1 000 metres of
altitude.
Refer to the "Technical data" section for
details of the weights and towed loads
which apply to your vehicle.
Towing a trailer
Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage, but it may
also be used for towing a trailer.
We recommend the use of genuine
CITROËN towbars and their harnesses
that have been tested and approved
from the design stage of your vehicle,
and that the fitting of the towbar is
entrusted to a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the towbar is not fitted by a
CITROËN dealer, it must still be
fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.
Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and the
driver must take particular care.
Driving advice
DS3_en_Chap08_info-pratiques_ed02-2015
Towing with the PERFORMANCE version
Your vehicle cannot be fitted with a
towbar. The space occupied by the
sport diffuser prevents this.
Side wind
F
Take into account the increased sensitivity
to side wind.
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.
F
To lower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
The maximum towed load on a long incline
depends on the gradient and the ambient
temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.
F
If the warning lamp and the
STOP
warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
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
F
Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F
Check the electrical lighting and signalling
on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a genuine
CITROËN towbar is used.

Textured paint
Recommendations on the care and maintenance your vehicle are given in the maintenance and warranty guide.
Observe the following recommendations to avoid damaging the paint finish:
- Choose a high pressure wash, or at least a high water delivery; roller brush washing is
compatible.
- Gently wipe the body with a clean microfibre cloth.
- Carefully wipe off any fuel spilt on the body using a soft cloth, then allow to dry.
- Clean off any minor marks (for example, finger marks...), using the product in the
"TECHNATURE" range intended for removing insects.
On the other hand:
- Do not use a wash programme that includes a final hot wax cycle.
- Do not use waterless cleaning.
- Never polish the vehicle.
- Do not use paint restorers, abrasive or polishing products, or bright paint preservers
(wax polish, for example).
It is always preferable to have paint repairs carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Advice on care and maintenance
The textured paint reacts to light with variations
of appearance and finish that emphasise
the car's lines and form. This paint contains
particles that remain visible and create
a unique satin effect with relief. Its lightly
granulated texture gives it a surprising feel.
DS3_en_Chap08_info-pratiques_ed02-2015
Leather
Leather is a natural product. Appropriate
regular care and cleaning is essential for its
durability.
Refer to your vehicle's maintenance
and warranty guide for information on
the special precautions to observe.
Care of the expressive
stickers
These styling stickers are treated to give good
resistance to ageing and tearing.
They have been designed to allow you to
customise your vehicle's bodywork.
Available also as accessories, we recommend
that you have them fitted by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
When using a high pressure jet wash,
keep the end of the lance at least
30 centimetres from the stickers
