The LMP® battery
This LMP® battery stores, for an equivalent we

traditional battery and can be recharged in a
few hours.
The range of the vehicle has been type-
approved to European Regulation ECE 101R01.
The LMP
® battery is made only of non-polluting
materials.
At the end of its life, the LMP
® battery will be
collected and all of its components will be
recycled or reused.

rly the slowing of traffic by taking
your foot off the accelerator or braking
progressively
Speed and driving style
High speed reduces the range of the vehicle.
Sporty driving reduces the range of the vehicle:
adopt a smooth driving style.
Road profile
On a hill, rather than trying to maintain your
speed, do not depress the accelerator pedal
more than on level ground: rather, keep the
accelerator pedal in the same position.
Temperature setting
Using the heating or air conditioning reduces
the range of the vehicle.
Ty r e s
Low tyre pressures increase energy
consumption.
Observe the tyre pressures recommended for
your vehicle.
When replacing tyres, give preference to tyres
of the same brand, size, type and structure as
the original fitment.
Using tyres of different characteristics
significantly reduces the range of the vehicle.
Vehicle loading
Avoid carrying unnecessary loads in or on the
vehicle.

Braking system
Your E-MEHARI is fitted with two braking

An e

-
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.
