Battery and fuse
- Battery
Maintenance free battery
A maintenance free battery must never be opened. Never add coolant or
electrolyte
Traditional battery
Battery electrolyte
Check and keep the level between the «upper» (maximum) and «lower»
(minimum) marks.
Use demineralized water or special lead battery water only for your battery;
tap water will reduce its life.
When you replace the battery, make sure that the air vent hose is properly in
place and is not blocked or pinched. Please call a PEUGEOT dealer if you
have excessive electrolyte loss.
Connections to battery wires :
- Connect the red wire to the battery's (+) terminal,
- Connect the green wire to the battery's (-) terminal.
- Charging the battery
The level of battery liquid must always be checked before charging.
The charge must be carried out with a suitable battery charger with a maxi-
mum output of 0.4 to 1 ampere ; we recommend that this operation is done
by a dealer.
Note : you can damage the battery if the battery charger that you
use is too powerful.

the eyes or clothing.

The battery releases explosive gases. Do not bring sparks, flames or
cigarettes close. When charging or using in a closed location, make
sure that the ventilation is good. Protect eyes when working close to
a battery.
Always keep batteries out of children’s reach.
A used battery must always be taken to a certified recycling point.
- Fuse
A fuse protects the electrical equipment against short circuits or circuit
overloads.
It is located in a fuse holder at the side of the battery.
It melts and breaks the circuit if there is a fault in the installation.
- 10A accessory fuse
- 25 A main fuse
Precaution
The fuse only burns out if there is a fault in the electrical circuit.
Please call a PEUGEOT dealer.
Only use standard fuses.
Replace a burnt out fuse by a fuse of the same capacity.
Replacing a fuse with an inappropriate fuse can cause irreversible
damage to the equipment and can even cause safety faults, placing the
user at risk.
