Ideally you should drop the driver's window and close all of the doors before reconnectiong. Then once it's hooked up turn on the sidelights through the window (Don't open the door). This initiates a 'soft boot' of the BSI. Opening a door may cause the BSI to panic and has been known in rare cases to brick the BSI/ECU. The risk is very low but that's what the folk on here recommend.

Pretty much what has been said above but you can also have someone sit in the car and turn the sidelights on. Here's a detailed set of instructions: www.206info.co.uk/Foru...20314.html
