ELECTRIC VEHICLE: introduction (3/6)
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.
Battery 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, the outdoor
temperature and the type of road.
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).

FRONT WINDSCREEN WASHER, WIPER (1/2)
Special note
When the vehicle is being driven, the
wiping speed slows down whenever
the vehicle stops. For example, fast
wiping speed will slow to normal wiping
speed. As soon as the vehicle moves
off, wiping will return to the speed origi-
nally selected.
If stalk 1 is operated, it overrides and
cancels the automatic function.
If for any reason the wipers are
jammed (e.g. frozen to windscreen
by ice etc.), the system will auto-
matically cut the power supply to
the wipers.

Approximately every year (refer to
the information on “Wiper blades” in
section 5).
Precautions for using the
wipers
– In freezing or snowy weather, clear the screen before starting
the wipers (risk of motor over-
heating);
– ensure that no objects are ob- structing the travel of the blade.
