If you notice when driving that the
bonnet is not closed correctly, slow
down and stop where it is safe to do so,
and then close the bonnet correctly.There are high voltage components
under the bonnet of your E-MEHARI.
We recommend that you should not
try to carry out the maintenance and
servicing of your vehicle yourself.
A mistake in handling these
components could cause an electric
shock and serious or fatal injuries.If work is needed on your vehicle,
contact a CITROËN
a
uthorised repairer
or
a qual
ified
pr
ofessional

Closing the bonnet
Disengage the stay while holding the bonnet
with one hand to avoid it suddenly dropping.
Return the stay to its original position and allow
the bonnet to drop and latch home.
Check that the bonnet has latched correctly.

e-mehari_en_Chap04_entretien_ed02-2016
Never wash the underbonnet, the
charging socket or the traction battery
using a high pressure jet wash: risk of
damage to the electrical system.
Never wash the vehicle while it is
charging: risk of electric shock that
could cause death.
Cleaning the vehicle by the regular
use of a high pressure car wash with
rotating brushes is not recommended.
Washing precautions
Not recommended for care
of the bodywork
● Degreasing or cleaning the mechanical components under the body, parts with
hinges, exterior plastic panels using a high
pressure jet wash or spraying products not
intended for this purpose, such as solvents

Going into hibernation
mode
Maximum hibernation period
according to the state of charge
of the battery
100%: 4 months
75% - 99%: 3 months
50% - 74%: 2 months
25% - 49%: 1 monthDo not put your E-MEHARI into
hibernation with a battery state of
charge of less than 25%.
Unlock your vehicle and disconnect the
charging plug.
Turn the ignition key to the first position, the
screen then displays:
Position the hibernation key in the switch
located below the drive selector, turn it to
the right and hold it in this position for a few
seconds.
The screen then displays: entry into hibernation
mode is confirmed.
Remove the hibernation key and the starter key.
The screen goes off after 30
s
econds.
Do not lock the vehicle.
Hibernation mode
Hibernation mode allows the consumption of
energy from the battery to be reduced to a
minimum.
In this way you can park your E-MEHARI,
not connected and with no consumption of
electrical energy, for several weeks or even
several months.
Coming out of hibernation mode takes 4
h
ours
and is followed by the charging time (a
maximum of between 8
a
nd 13
h
ours).

Coming out of hibernation mode
Do not connect the vehicle before step
5 and carry out each step in order.
1.
Po
sition the hibernation key in the switch.
Turn it to the left. 2. Ch
eck the message displayed: the screen
asks you to turn the key.
3.
Tu
rn the ignition key to the first position. The
vehicle wakes up.
4.
Sw
itch off and remove the ignition key. The
screen display is then as shown, 5.
Pl
ug in the charging cable.
Check for the rapid flashing of the green LED,
confirming that the battery is charging.
Leave your vehicle on charge for the period
displayed so that it is 100% operational. Never disconnect the charging cable
while the green LED is flashing rapidly
(a minimum of 4
h
ours).
You have to be in possession of the
charging cable and be able to connect
your vehicle to a power supply to
be able to wake the vehicle from
hibernation.
Wait a few seconds. The hazard warning lamps
flash several times and the boot locks and
unlocks.

Braking system
Your E-MEHARI is fitted with two braking
system:
-
An e
nergy recovery braking system
-
A hy
draulic braking system
Energy recovery braking
system
The level of regeneration braking helping the
hydraulic braking depends on the state of
charge of the LMP
® battery.
If the state of charge of the LMP® battery is
100%, the energy recovery braking does not
intervene.
Hydraulic braking system
The hydraulic braking system is similar to that
used on conventional vehicles.
When driving on slippery sur faces, take
care when braking and accelerating.
Sudden braking could cause the wheels
to loose grip and lead to an accident
and serious injuries.
