Managing sets of wheels
and tyres
Selection of the other set of wheels and tyres is
done via the instrument panel screen, with the
ignition on and the vehicle stationary.
After fitting the new set of wheels and
tyres, you should check and adjust the
tyre pressures to the values specified
on the tyre pressure label.
For more information on the
Identification markings , refer to the
corresponding section. The system automatically reinitialises
the reference pressure based on the
pressure in the new set (the under-
inflation detection warning lamp flashes
during the operation).
If you have had a second set of wheels and
tyres registered by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop, every time you change the
set of wheels (fitting a set of winter tyres, for
example), you must select the set you have just
fitted in the configuration menu.

F Check that the charging lamp in the instrument panel and
the green CHARGING lamp of
the control unit are on fixed.
The start of charging may be
accompanied by the noise of a fan
running. This noise is per fectly normal.
The charge may be interrupted at any
time by withdrawing the charging plug.
If this is not the case, charging has not
started; repeat the procedure, ensuring that all
connections are correct.
The state of charge indicator for the main
battery is displayed in the instrument panel and
the number of bars illuminated increases as the
battery is charged.
If exceptionally you have to interrupt the
charge by disconnecting the charging
cable from the power point, it is
essential to first press the Manual Stop
button on the control unit.Control unit
There are four indicator lamps:
- S TOP: on red.

interrupted by a press on the Manual Stop
button . This action is essential before
disconnecting the charging cable from the
power point when charging.
-

been established. If it does not come on,
check that the connections are correct. If
the problem persists, contact a CITROËN

This type of control unit that has a system for
recognising the type of power point (depending
on country). It detects the power rating of your
domestic power point and is able to support
and select the best current rating to ensure
safe charging:
-

A (FAST): if your electrical installation
supports it.
-
8 A
(NORMAL): if your electrical
installation is standard. 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.
The charge lamp in the instrument panel going

While charging, do not do anything
under the bonnet, even with the ignition
off, as the cooling fan may start at any
time (risk of injury).
You must wait for at least one hour
after the end of the charging procedure
before doing anything under the bonnet,
as some areas may be extremely hot
(risk of burns).

After removing the charging plug from
the vehicle's socket, do not leave
the cable connected to the electric
power point (risk of short circuit or
electrocution if there is contact or
immersion in water). After charging, close the charging
socket cover and flap.
Take care to avoid the ingress of water
or dust to the socket and its cover
or the charging plug (risk of fire or
electrocution).
In the event of an accident or an impact
to the underbody of the vehicle (contact
with a raised kerb, a bollard, street
furniture, etc.), the electric circuit or the
main battery may be damaged. Have
your vehicle checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Never touch the 300 V components, nor
the orange cables.
Vehicle out of use for a long
period
When your vehicle is going to be out
of use for a long period, charge the
main battery completely every three
months (following the normal charging
procedure).
Before charging, check that the
12 V battery is not disconnected or
discharged. If this is the case, refer
to the "12 V battery" section for
reconnecting or charging the battery.
In the event of serious damage to
the main battery, never touch liquids
coming from this component.
In the event of contact with your body,
wash abundantly with water and contact
a doctor without delay.
To optimise the ser vice life of the
main battery, recharge it completely
ever y
2 weeks.
For a complete charge, follow the
normal charging procedure (domestic
power point) without interruption, until it
stops automatically (charging warning
lamp goes off in the instrument panel).
In addition, ever y 3 months, carr y
out
this complete recharge of the
main batter y from a state of charge
of 2 bars or less .

F Check that the charging warning lamp in the instrument panel is
on fixed.
Fast charging stops automatically
when the main battery is around 80%
charged. It is possible to attain a charge
of 100% by restarting the procedure.
However, the time taken by this
additional charge will be relatively long,
as the charging rate is reduced. During fast charging, the vehicle's air
conditioning may start automatically,
if needed to cool the main battery. It is
therefore per fectly normal to hear the
noise of a fan running from outside the
vehicle and to see a puddle of water
form under the vehicle. 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 to
the vehicle's socket, then to restart the
charging following the instructions for
using the charging station.If the exterior temperature is
below
0 °C, the charging time may be
longer.
If the exterior temperature is
below
-25 °C, charging may not be
possible.
If this is not the case, charging has not started;
check the operating instructions for the
charging station. The charging warning lamp in the instrument
panel goes off when charging is complete.

Take care to avoid the ingress of water
or dust into the socket, under its cover
or into the charging plug. Risk of fire or
electrocution.
Vehicle out of use for a long
period
When your vehicle is going to be out
of use for a long period, charge the
main battery completely every three
months (following the normal charging
procedure).
Before charging, check that the
12 V battery is not disconnected or
discharged. If this is the case, refer

However, if the vehicle is not to be used
for a prolonged period of more than a
month, it may be necessary, in winter,
to disconnect and store the battery to
avoid the electrolyte freezing.
After prolonged disconnection of the
battery, you must contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop to have
the electronic control unit reinitialised.
