Compatibility of fuels
Petrol fuels conforming to the EN228 standard
containing up to 5% and 10% ethanol respectively.

Diesel fuels conforming to the EN590, EN16734
and EN16709 standards and containing up to
7%, 10%, 20% and 30% fatty acid methyl ester
respectively. The use of B20 or B30 fuels, even
occasionally, imposes special maintenance
conditions referred to as "Arduous conditions".

Paraffinic Diesel fuel conforming to the EN15940
standard.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(e.g. pure or diluted vegetable or animal
oils, domestic fuel) is strictly prohibited - risk
of damaging the engine and fuel system!
The only fuel additives authorised for use
are those that meet the B715001 (petrol)
or B715000 (Diesel) standards.
Diesel at low temperature
At temperatures below 0 °C (+32 °F), the
formation of paraffins in summer-type Diesel
fuels could prevent the engine from operating correctly. In these temperature conditions, use
winter-type Diesel fuel and keep the fuel tank
more than 50 % full.
At temperatures below -15 °C (+5 °F) to avoid
problems starting, it is best to park the vehicle
under shelter (heated garage).
Travelling abroad
Certain fuels could damage your vehicle’s engine.
In certain countries, the use of a particular fuel
may be required (specific octane rating, specific
trade name, etc.) to ensure correct operation of
the engine.
For all additional information, consult a dealer.
Refuelling
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 55
litres (Diesel), 62 litres (Petrol) or 43 litres
(Rechargeable hybrid).
Reserve level: approximately 6 litres.
Low fuel level
When the low fuel level is reached, this
warning lamp lights up on the instrument
panel, accompanied by the display of a message
and an audible signal. When it first comes on,
about 6 litres of fuel remain.
Until sufficient fuel is added, this warning lamp
appears every time the ignition is switched on,
accompanied by the message and the audible
signal. When driving, this message and audible
signal are repeated with increasing frequency as
the fuel level drops towards 0.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out of fuel.
For more information on Running out of fuel
(Diesel), refer to the corresponding section.
A small arrow by the warning lamp
indicates which side of the vehicle the
fuel filler flap is located on.
Stop & Start
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition.
Refuelling
Any addition of fuel must be in quantities of at
least 10 litres, in order to be registered by the fuel
gauge.
Opening the filler flap may create a noise caused
by an inrush of air. This vacuum is entirely normal,
resulting from the sealing of the fuel system.
To refuel in complete safety:
►  Always switch off the engine.

off the ignition.
Contact a dealer or a qualified workshop.
When washing
Before washing the vehicle, always check
that the charging flap is closed correctly.
Never wash the vehicle while the battery is on
charge.
High-pressure washing
To avoid damaging the electrical
components, it is expressly prohibited to
use high-pressure washing in the engine
compartment or under the body.
Do not use a pressure greater than 80 bar
when washing the bodywork.
Never allow water or dust to enter the
connector or charging nozzle - risk of
electrocution or fire!
Never connect / disconnect the charging
nozzle or cable with wet hands - risk of
electrocution!
Traction battery
The Li-ion (Lithium-ion) traction battery stores the
electrical energy needed to propel the vehicle.
It is located under the rear seats.
The traction battery's range varies depending
on the type of driving, the route, the use of
thermal comfort equipment and the ageing of its
components.
The traction battery ageing depends on
several factors, such as climatic
conditions and the distance travelled.
To preserve the mileage of your vehicle
and the durability of your traction battery,
the Manufacturer recommends that you:
–

Do no
t fully charge the battery of your
electric vehicle daily (charge the traction
battery below 80% as often as possible).
–

Do no
t completely discharge the battery.
–

Do no
t store the vehicle for a long period
of non-use (more than 12 hours) when the
traction battery has a low or high charge level.
Prefer a charge level between 20 and 40%.
–

Limit the use o
f fast charging.
–

Do no
t expose the vehicle to temperatures
below -30°C and above +60°C for more than
24 hours.
–

A

void charging the vehicle at negative
temperatures (except if the vehicle ran more
than 20 minutes) or above +30°C.
–

Do no
t use the vehicle's traction battery as a
generator of energy.
–

Do no
t use a generator to recharge your
vehicle's traction battery.
In the event of damage to the traction
battery
It is strictly prohibited to work on the vehicle
yourself.
Do not touch liquids coming from the battery,
and in the event of skin contact with these
products, wash abundantly with water and
contact a doctor as soon as possible.
Contact a dealer or a qualified workshop to
have the system checked.
Disposal of the traction battery
The traction battery is designed for the life
of the vehicle if the recommendations of the
Manufacturer are followed.
If it becomes necessary to replace the battery,
contact the dealer for instructions on its disposal.
Improper disposal carries the risk of severe burns,
electric shock, and damage to the environment.
In accordance with regulations, the Manufacturer
ensures a second life or recycling of this
component in collaboration with qualified
operators.
Charging flap
The charging flap is located on the rear left-hand
side of the vehicle.
