Do not touch the metal end of the fast
charging socket or of the charging cable.
Risk of electrocution and/or malfunctions.The start of charging is confirmed by
flashing of the direction indicators.
Completion of charging is indicated by the
charging point.
-

c
onnect the charging point's cable to the
vehicle's socket following the instructions
for use of the charging point. Fast charging stops automatically when
the main battery is charged to around
80%. You can reach 100% by restarting
the procedure. However, the time required
for this extra charge will be relatively long,
the charging speed having slowed down.
As a safety measure, the motor will
not start when the charging cable is
connected to the vehicle's socket.
After recharging, ensure that the socket
cover and access flap are closed.
Take care to avoid allowing water or
dust to enter the socket, under its cover
or in the charging plug. Risk of fire or
electrocution.If the ambient temperature is below 0°C,
charging times may be longer.
If the ambient temperature is below -25°C,
charging may not be possible.
Immobilising the vehicle for a long
period
When your vehicle is to be immobilised for
an indefinite period, carry out a complete
charge of the main battery every three
months (following the normal charging
procedure).
Before carrying out the charging
operation, ensure that the ancillaries
battery is not disconnected or discharged.
If this is the case, refer to the "Ancillaries
battery" section for information on
connecting or charging it.

Other information
Traction battery
Do not make any modification to the
drive train, this could cause a risk of
malfunction.
300 Volt electrical system
The 300 Volt electrical system is identified by
o range coloured cables, and its components
are marked with this symbol:
Please note the following point: the fitting
of electrical equipment or accessories
which are not listed by the manufacturer
may result in the failure of your vehicle's
electronic system. We ask you to take
note of this consideration and to contact
a franchised dealer 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 hot while the ignition is on
and can remain so after switching off.
Obser ve the warning messages on the
labels present in the vehicle. Any work on
or modification 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 a qualified
workshop.
Driving in a flood
It is strongly recommended not to drive in
flooded 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 qualified
workshop to check the condition of your
vehicle's electrical systems.
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. You do not
have to wait until the battery reaches reser ve
status to charge your traction battery.

In the event of an accident or
impact under the vehicle or on
one of the charging flaps
In the event of an accident or an impact to the
underbody of the vehicle (for example: contact
with a pole, a raised kerb or other urban
roadside fixture) or in the event of an impact,
even slight, to one of the charging flaps, these
circumstances may have serious repercussions
for your vehicle's electrical system or traction
battery and cause damage to them. Have
your vehicle checked as soon as possible by a
franchised dealer or a qualified workshop.
Never touch the 300 Volt components or the
orange cables exposed and visible inside or
outside of the vehicle.
In the case of serious damage to the traction
battery:
-
d
o not try to do anything to the vehicle
yourself,
-

n
ever touch liquids coming from the traction
battery and in the event of skin contact with
these products, wash abundantly with water
and contact a doctor as soon as possible. In the event of exposure to a fire
In the event of exposure to a fire, you and
your passengers should exit the vehicle
immediately. Never intervene yourself (risk
of electrocution). Contact the emergency
ser vices immediately. Warn them that your
vehicle is electric.
Washing precautions
Never wash the vehicle while the battery is on
charge.
Before washing the vehicle, check that the
access flaps are closed and the cover on each
charging socket is correctly closed.
In order to avoid damaging the electric units,
the use of a high pressure jet wash is strictly
forbidden:
-

u
nder the bonnet,
-
u

nder the vehicle, around the battery packs.
Do not use a pressure greater than 80
bar
when washing the bodywork.
Audible environment
On the outside
The driver must be particularly vigilant when
driving the electric vehicle as it makes very little
noise when moving.
On the inside
While in operation, you may hear noises that
are specific to an electric vehicle, such as:
-

t
he traction battery relays when starting,
-

t
he vacuum pump when braking,
-

t
yre or wind noise from the vehicle when
driving.
When parking on a slope, it is recommended
that you apply the parking brake before putting
the drive selector in P . When moving off, a
knock and a clicking sound may be heard,
which is normal.

Vehicle immobilisation
Long term
When your vehicle is to be immobilised for an
indefinite period, carry out a complete recharge
of the traction battery every three months
(following the normal charging procedure).
Before carrying out the charging operation,
ensure that the ancillaries battery is not
disconnected or discharged. If this is the case,
refer to the "Ancillaries battery" section for
information on connecting or charging it.Precautions to take when charging the
battery
-

D
o not stay inside or near the vehicle.

during the operation ("Ready" lamp in the
instrument panel) and charging phases.If the ancillaries battery is discharged,
the electric motor cannot be started and
charging of the traction battery is no
longer possible.
It is recommended that the ancillaries
battery be disconnected if the vehicle is
not to be used for more than a month.
