The engine brake should
under no circumstances be
used as a substitute for the
brake pedal.
ELECTRIC VEHICLE: introduction (5/6)
Driving
As with a car with an automatic gear-
box, you will have to get used to not
using your left foot, and not using this
foot to brake.
When driving, if you lift your foot off the
accelerator pedal or depress the brake
pedal, the motor generates electrical
current during deceleration, and this
energy is used to brake the vehicle and
recharge the traction battery. Please
refer to the information on the “Charge
meter” in Section 2.
Special conditions
After a maximum charge of the battery
and during the first few miles of using
the vehicle, the engine brake will be
temporarily reduced. Please adapt your
driving style appropriately. Bad weather, flooded roads:Do not drive through
floods if the depth of water
is above the lower edge of
the wheel rims.
Obstructions to the driver
On the driver’s side, only
use mats suitable for the
vehicle, attached with the
pre-fitted components, and check
the fitting regularly. Do not lay one
mat on top of another.
There is a risk of wedging the
pedals
