Your E-MEHARI is an electric vehicle
that uses direct current at high voltage.
Failing to observe the handling
instructions can cause serious or fatal
injuries.
Ensure that you read and follow the
charging procedures recommended by
CITROËN.

1. YAZAKI charging nozzle.Charging the LMP® battery fitted
to E-MEHARI
It is recommended that the battery be charged
as often as possible.
With the charge indicator at 100%, if not
charged the LMP
® battery can discharge in
2 d
ays (without using the vehicle).
A hibernation mode is available to reduce
energy consumption from the battery 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.

® battery is completely discharged,

Never use an extension lead.
At a public or private
charging point
You can charge your E-MEHARI at a public or
private charging point, provided that you have a
suitable cable for the type of charging point.
At home
Using a 16A power point
If you have a 16A charging power point or have
had one installed by an electrician, you can use
it to charge your E-MEHARI.
Using an ordinary domestic
power point (230V/10 -16A)
Your E-MEHARI is supplied with a charging
cable that has CCID electronic protection,
allowing you to charge your E-MEHARI from
any 230V/16A domestic power point that can
support a continuous current of 10A.
Using this solution the charging time is longer
than if charged from a 16A power point.

When charging the vehicle, particularly
at the roadside, be especially careful of
children when handling the cable and
the charging point.
The cable reel can operate sharply and
cause injury.
