Battery and fuse

       - Battery

Battery of maintenance *

A maintenance-free battery should never be opened, do not add
water or electrolyte.

Battery electrolyte

Check and keep the level between the «UPPER» (maximum) and «LOWER»
(minimum) marks.
Only top up using demineralized water or special lead battery
water. Never use acid
When you replace the battery, make sure that the air vent hose is
properly in place and is not blocked or pinched.

Charging the battery

Checking and topping up should be carried out when the battery is fully
charged (if water is added when the battery is flat, it will overflow during
charging)
A battery should never be stored discharged. If the machine is to be unused
for more than 15 days, the battery should be disconnected from the machine
and put to charge every 2 months, (discharged voltage under 11 volts,
immediately recharged, discharged voltage under 6 volts, battery irretriev-
able).
The level of battery liquid must always be checked before charging.
The charge must be carried out with a suitable battery charger with
a maximum 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.

Caution

- 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.
- Keep the battery out of reach of children.
- When checking the battery electrolyte level or adding distilled water,
make sure that the air vent pipe is properly connected to the battery.
Use demineralized water or special lead battery water only for your
battery;  tap water will reduce its life.  Please call a
PEUGEOT dealer if you have excessive electrolyte loss.
It is essential that used batteries must be taken to an approved
recycling point.
- The battery contains sulfuric acid.  Do not allow the electrolyte to
come into contact with your skin, eyes or clothes.
First aid :

External : rinse with water. Immediately call a doctor
Internal : do not drink or provoke vomiting.  Immediately call a doctor

or the nearest anti-poison center.

Eyes :  rinse with water and immediately call first aid.

Connections to battery wires

- Connect the red wire to the battery's (+)terminal
- Connect the green wire to the battery's (-) terminal

       - Fuse

Two fuses protect the electrical installation against short-circuits or
overloads.

-   5A accessory fuse
- 20A general fuse

They are placed in a fuse box next to the battery.
It melts and cuts off the circuit in the event of a failure in the
installation.

Precaution

If one of the fuses is melted, this means there is a failure on
the electric circuit. Contact a PEUGEOT agent.
Use only standard fuses. Replace a burnt out fuse with a fuse
of the same intensity.
