Traction battery - State of charge indicator

The state of charge of the traction
battery is displayed continuously when
the vehicle is switched on.
Low energy alerts
Two successive energy level alerts
indicate that the energy available has
dropped to a low level:
With the motor stopped, ignition
off, opening the driver's door
wakes the indicator.
1st level: Reserve

This warning lamp comes
on when the state of charge
of the traction battery is low.
Illumination of this warning
lamp is accompanied by an
audible signal.
2nd level: Critical


This warning lamp, associated
with the reserve warning lamp,
comes on in the instrument
panel when the state of charge
of the traction battery is critical.
Illumination of this warning
lamp is accompanied by a
regular audible warning.
Check the remaining range
indicated in the instrument panel
screen.
Put the vehicle on charge as soon as
possible. Put the vehicle on charge.
The remaining range is no longer
calculated. The power of the drive
train is progressively reduced.
The heating and air conditioning are
stopped (even if the needle indicating
their consumption is not in the ECO

position). From this state of charge of the
battery, the level of heating or
air conditioning is progressively
reduced.

immobilised (drive selector not in
position P
).
An alert message is displayed in the screen.

If this is not the case, charging ha snot
started; repeat the procedure ensuring
that all connections are correct.
If the ambient temperature is lower
than -25° C, charging may not be
possible.
-
check that the charging
lamp in the instrument panel
and the green CHARGING
indicator in the controller are
on (not fl ashing).

The traction battery state of charge
indicator is displayed in the instrument
panel and the position of the needle
progresses as the battery is charged.
As a safety measure, the motor
will not start when the charging
cable is connected to the vehicle's
socket. Also, any attempt to start
the motor interrupts the charging
procedure. It will then be necessary to
disconnect and reconnect the charging
cable plug to continue charging.

To optimise the service life of
the main battery, recharge it
completely every fi fteen days.
For a complete charge, follow the
normal charging procedure without
interruption until it stops automatically,
confi rmed by charging lamp going off
in the instrument panel. Opening the
driver's door temporarily wakes the
state of charge indicator allowing the
state of charge of the traction battery to
be checked.
The commencement of charging
is confi rmed by fl ashing of the
direction indicators.
