ECO-DRIVING

Practical advice


Adopt a gentle driving style
the electrical consumption of your
vehicle depends very strongly on the
route you take, you style of driving and
your speed.
In all cases, adopt a gentle driving
style.
Try to say in the " Optimum
" zone
of the energy consumption and
generation indicator: press the
accelerator pedal progressively,
without sudden movements and if the
conditions allow, try to drive at a steady
and moderate speed.
Recover energy
Driving with anticipation allows you to
recover energy and increase the range
of the vehicle.
Anticipate when you have to slow
down and, if the conditions allow, try to
use deceleration rather than braking,
which will place the needle of the
energy consumption and generation
indicator in the " Charge
" zone.
Limit the causes of excess
consumption
As with any vehicle, limit the load
being carried and keep aerodynamic
resistance to a minimum (windows
open above 30 mph (50 km/h), roof
bars, roof box,…).
Excessive use of the air conditioning
and heating, particularly at low speed,
can reduce the range of your vehicle
considerably. Try to optimise their use.

Observe the servicing and
maintenance recommendations
Check the tyre pressures regularly
and follow the schedule of servicing
operations recommended by the
manufacturer.

ECO-COMFORT

ECO-COMFORT


Control the use of electrical
equipment
The heating and air conditioning
operate using energy supplied by
the traction battery. Excessive use
signifi cantly reduces the range of your
vehicle. Try to optimise their use as
soon as you reached the desired level
of comfort and check the settings at
every start in order to maximise range.
Also limit the use of demisting and
defrosting and of the heated seat.
Stop the heating or air
conditioning and maintain
ventilation.
Stop the heating or air
conditioning and ventilation.

Pressing the ECO
button stops
the heating and air conditioning
(but maintains ventilation). The
needle of the energy consumption and
generation indicator is placed in the
ECO
zone.
Operating the temperature
control activates the heating
or air conditioning and
stops ECO
mode.

MANUAL AIR CONDITIONING AND HEATING



ECO
(stops the air conditioning
and heating).


OFF
(stops the heating, air
conditioning and ventilation).

Windscreen demist.

Rear screen demist on
versions with glazed rear
doors.

Air distribution.

Recirculation of interior air/
Intake of exterior air.

Increase/Reduce air fl ow.
Increase/Reduce temperature.

Ventilation can be used as
soon as this indicator is on.

After a prolonged period without
use of the heating system, its
operation may result in a slight
odour during the fi rst few minutes
of use.



Special features of the air
conditioning and heating
The air conditioning and heating
systems do not regulate the
temperature in the cabin directly, but
ensure a constant temperature at the
fan-fed air vents (a temperature which
is indexed to the level of hot or cold
desired by the users).
if you want to rapidly heat or cool the
vehicle cabin, you can temporarily set
the temperature control to maximum
hot or cold.
It should be noted however that:


- The air conditioning system
(cooling of the air) only operates
when the ambient temperature is
above 15°C,

- The power of the heating system
is progressively restricted when
the ambient temperature is above
20°C.


Manual heating version

Practical advice


Heating and ventilation
In winter, air distribution
towards the footwells is
recommended, allowing a
more uniform ambience to be
obtained in the cabin.
In summer, distribution towards the
face-level vents will increase the
effectiveness of the ventilation and air
conditioning.
In heating mode, try to use
moderate level of ventilation,
that is less than 3 blades. This
will allow the system to deliver
air at a higher temperature.

CHARGING THE TRACTION BATTERY

OTHER INFORMATION

Traction battery

This battery stores the energy needed
for the correct operation of the
motor of your electric vehicle, the air
conditioning and the heating. As with
all batteries, it discharges when used
and so must be recharged regularly. It
is not necessary to wait until you are
on the reserve to charge you traction
battery.

300 Volt electric system

The "300 Volt" electrical system is
identifi ed by the electrical cable,
which are orange in colour, and the
components marked with this symbol:
We draw your attention to
the following point: the fi tting
of equipment or electrical
accessories not listed for the vehicle
by the manufacturer could cause a
breakdown of your vehicle's electronic
system. We ask you to take note
of this consideration and to contact
a franchised dealers to see the
equipment and accessories listed for
the vehicle. The drive train of the electric
vehicle is powered at around
300 Volts. This system can
become in hot and remain so after
switching off. Observe the warning
messages on the labels present
in the vehicle. Any operation on or
modifi cation to the vehicle's electrical
system (components, cables,
connectors, traction battery) is strictly
prohibited because of the risk of
serious burns or electric shock leading
to death.
In the event of a problem, always
contact a franchised dealer or qualifi ed
workshop.

Driving in a fl ood

It is strongly recommended not
to drive in fl ooded areas. In all cases,
the maximum depth of water allowed
is 150 mm (lower edge of the wheel
rims) and the maximum speed is
6 mph (10 km/h). Ensure that these
recommendations are observed
otherwise serious damage to the
electrical system is possible. If it has
not been possible to follow these
recommendations, contact a franchised
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop to check
the condition of your vehicle's electrical
systems.

Do not make any modifi cation to
the drive train, this could create
the risk of malfunctions.

SUPPLEMENT FOR ELECTRIC MODE















MOTOR AND TRACTION BATTERY

The range of the vehicle, approved on the NEDC cycle, is 170 km (105 miles). This range can vary according to
various factors, the main ones being the use of the heating and air conditioning, the style of driving, the type of route
taken and ageing of the traction battery.
Ageing of the traction battery also depends on various factors, such as the ambient temperature, the mileage of the vehicle,
the frequency of fast charges…
