air conditioning and heating. Its charge level is
represented by an indicator and a reserve power
warning lamp on the instrument panel.
The 12 V accessory battery 3 powers the
vehicle’s conventional electrical system. It is
recharged automatically by the traction battery
via the on-board charger.
The heat pump
4 provides passenger
compartment heating and regulates traction
battery and on-board charger cooling.
The on-board charger 5 manages the domestic
charging
(mode 2) and accelerated charging
(mode 3) of the traction battery as well as the
recharging of the 12
V accessory battery.
The electric motor
6 provides propulsion in
accordance with the selected driving mode and
driving conditions. It recovers energy during
vehicle braking and deceleration
phases.

ways (fixed or flashing) and/or in several colours.
Associated warnings
The illumination of a lamp may be accompanied
by an audible signal and/or a message displayed
in a screen.
Relating the type of alert to the operating status
of the vehicle allows you to determine whether
the situation is normal or whether a fault has
occurred: refer to the description of each lamp
for further information.
When the ignition is switched on
Certain red or orange warning lamps come on
for a few seconds when the ignition is switched
on. These warning lamps should go off as soon
as the engine is started.
For more information on a system or a function,
refer to the corresponding section.

may be fault which needs further investigation.
If a lamp remains lit
The references (1), (2) and (3) in the warning
and indicator lamp description indicate whether
you should contact a qualified professional in
addition to the immediate recommended actions.
(1): You must stop the vehicle .
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so and switch off
the ignition.
