ELECTRIC VEHICLE: introduction (3/5)
Batteries
Your electric vehicle has two types of
battery:
– a 400V traction battery;
– a standard 12V battery, identical to the one used in conventional vehi-
cles. Traction battery
This battery stores the energy neces-
sary to operate the motor in your elec-
tric vehicle properly. As with any bat-
tery, it discharges after use, and must
be regularly recharged.
You do not have to wait until the traction
battery hits the reserve level in order to
recharge it.
Charging times vary depending on the
type of specific wall unit socket or public
terminal you connect to.
Your vehicle range will depend on the
charge level of the traction battery, and
also on your driving style.
Please refer to information on “Vehicle
range: recommendations” in Section 2. 12 volt battery
The second battery on your vehicle is
a 12V battery, similar to those used
on conventional vehicles: this supplies
the energy required to operate vehicle
equipment (lights, windscreen wipers,
ABS, etc).

IMPORTANT RECOMMENDATIONS
Please read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow these instructions may lead to a risk of fire, serious injury
or electric shock which may present a risk to life.
In the event of an accident or impact
In the event of an accident or an impact to the underside of the vehicle\
(e.g.: striking a post, raised kerb or other street fu rni-
ture), this may damage the electric circuit or the traction battery.
Have the vehicle checked by an authorised dealer.
Never touch the “400 volt” components or orange cables which are e\
xposed and visible inside or outside the vehicle.
In the event of serious damage to the traction battery, leaks may occur:
– never touch the liquids (fluids, etc.) coming from the traction batter\
y;
– in the event of contact with the body, wash the affected area with plenty of water and consult a doctor as soon as possibl\
e.
In the event of an impact, even slight, against the charging flap and/or\
valve, have them checked by an authorised dealer as
soon as possible.
In the event of fire
In the event of fire, make everyone evacuate the vehicle immediately and\
contact the emergency services, informing them that
this is an electric vehicle.
Only use extinguishing agents ABC or BC that are permitted for use with electrical fires. Do not use w\
ater or other extinguish-
ing agents.
In the event of damage to the electrical circuit, please call an authori\
sed dealer.
All towing operations
Please refer to the information on “Towing, breakdowns” in Section 5.
Washing the vehicle
Never wash the engine compartment, the charging connection or the tracti\
on battery with a high-pressure jet.
This risks damaging the electric circuit.
Never wash the vehicle while it is charging.
Risk of electric shock and a risk to life.

1.9
ELECTRIC VEHICLE: charging (2/7)
Important recommendations for charging your vehiclePlease read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow these instructions may lead to a risk of fire, serious injury
or electric shocks which could result in death.
Charging
Do not do anything to the vehicle during charging (washing, working in \
the engine compartment, etc.).
In the event of the presence of water, signs of corrosion or foreign bodies in the charging cord connector or\
in the vehicle ch arg-
ing socket, do not charge the vehicle. Fire hazard.
Do not attempt to touch the cord contacts, the domestic socket or the ve\
hicle charging socket, or introduce objects into them.
Never plug the charging cord into an adapter, multiple socket or extension lead.
The use of generators is prohibited.
Do not remove or change the vehicle charging socket or the charging cord\
. Fire hazard.
Do not modify or perform any action on the installation during charging.\
In the event of an impact, even slight, against the charging socket or v\
alve, have them checked by an authorised dealer as
soon as possible.
Take care of the cord: do not tread on it, immerse it in water or pull on\
it or let anything knock against it.
Check regularly that the charging cord is in good condition.
Do not use in the event of any damage to the charging cord (corrosion, \
discolouring, cuts, etc.) or to the unit. Please see an
authorised dealer for a replacement.

ELECTRIC VEHICLE: charging (3/7)
Charging cord A
This cord, designed for specific wall
sockets or public terminals, enables the
standard charge of the traction battery.
A
Always read the charging cord instruc-
tions carefully before using it B.
B
Charging cord B
This cord allows:
– standard charge, on a socket used
only for the vehicle (14A charge);
– occasional charge using a domestic socket, when you are not at home,
for example (10A charge).
Sockets must be fitted as stated in the
instructions in the instructions supplied
with the charging cord B.
C
If a charging cord malfunctions
during the charging process (red
warning light on the unit D), stop
charging immediately. Please refer
to the cord instructions.
We recommend that you use a
charging cord that enables a stand-
ard charge to charge the traction
battery.
Each charging cord is stored in a
bag in the boot of the vehicle.
Never leave the socket hanging by
the cord. Use the hooks C to attach
it.

ELECTRIC VEHICLE: charging (5/7)
Charging connection 2
The vehicle has a charging connection
located at the front of the vehicle. Avoid charging and parking your ve-
hicle in extreme temperatures (hot or
cold).
When the vehicle is parked in tempera-
tures lower than around -25°C, the bat-
tery cannot be charged.
To preserve the service life of your trac-
tion battery, avoid parking the vehi-
cle for more than one month with high
charge, especially when the weather is
very hot.
Favour charging the traction battery
after driving and/or in mild tempera-
tures. Otherwise, charging may take a
longer period of time or even become
impossible.
2
In the absence of any protection
against overvoltage, you are recom-
mended not to charge the vehicle in
stormy weather (lightning, etc.).
Recommendations
– In extreme heat, favour parking and
recharging the vehicle in a shaded/
covered location.
– Charging can be performed in the rain or snow.
Note:
If in a snowy environment, remove
snow from the vehicle charging area
before plugging in or disconnecting.
Snow in the socket may block the in-
sertion of the charging cord plug.
The traction battery charging time
depends on the amount of energy
remaining and the power delivered
by the charging terminal. The infor-
mation is displayed on the instru-
ment panel during charging. Please
see the information on “Displays
and indicators” in Section 1.
In the event of a problem, we rec-
ommend that you replace it with an
identical cord. Please see an autho-
rised dealer.
