Practical information
Fuel
The capacity of the tank is about 90 litres.
Fuel tanks of different capacities may be fitted,
60 and 120 litres, depending on the engine.
Low fuel level
When the low fuel tank level E (Empty) is
reached, this warning lamp comes on.
At this moment, you have approximately 10 or
12 litres left in the reserve, depending on the
capacity of your tank and the engine.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out of fuel.
Refuelling
The fuel tank must be filled with the engine off.
► Open the fuel filler flap.
►

Hold the black filler cap with one hand.
►


With the other hand, insert the key and turn it
anti-clockwise.


► Remove the black filler cap and hang it on
the hook located on the inside of the filler flap.
A
label inside the fuel filler flap indicates the type
of fuel to use.
Do not continue past the 3
rd cut-off of the nozzle.
This may cause malfunctions.
►

After filling the fuel tank, lock the black filler
cap and close the filler flap.
With the Stop & Start system, never
refuel with the engine in STOP mode;
you must switch off the ignition using the key.
Fuel system cut off
In the event of an impact, a device automatically
cuts off the fuel supply to the engine and the
vehicle's power supply.
It triggers the hazard warning lamps and the
courtesy lamps, as well as the unlocking of the
doors.
After the impact and before restoring these power supplies, check that there
are no fuel leaks or sparks to avoid any risk of
fire.


► To restore the fuel supply, press the first
button, located on the front right-hand side.

Compatibility of fuels
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 (vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel, etc.) is strictly prohibited (risk
of damage to the engine and fuel system).
The only Diesel fuel additives authorised for use are those that meet the B715000
standard.
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.

Traction battery
This battery stores the energy that powers
the electric motor and the thermal comfort
equipment in the passenger compartment. It is
discharged during use and must be recharged as
often as possible, even partially.
The range of the battery may vary according
to the type of driving, the route, the use of
thermal comfort equipment and the ageing of its
components.
The lifespan of the traction battery depends on multiple factors, such as
climatic conditions, distance travelled and
how often it has been fast-charged.
To conserve the traction battery's capacity
and range:
–

A

void driving too often with a battery
charge level below 15%.
–

Carry out a full charge (100%) at least once
per week and then do not use the vehicle for
about 4 hours to allow the traction battery to
level out the charge across the cells (thus
ensuring a balanced voltage across the cells).
–


In summer
, park the vehicle in the shade
and away from any source of heat.
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.

Practical information
7Charging the traction
battery (Electric)
To charge, connect the vehicle to a domestic
charging unit or a fast public charger (superfast
charging).
For a full charge, follow the desired charging
procedure without interrupting it, until it ends
automatically.
To stop charging at any time, press the locking
button on the remote control for 5 seconds
and remove the charging nozzle. For superfast
charging, also refer to the fast public charger.
The display of information linked to the charging
is integrated into the rear view mirror. For more
information on the Display integrated into the
rear view mirror , refer to the corresponding
section.
As a safety measure, the engine will not start if the charging cable is plugged into
the vehicle's charging connector.
Cooling the traction battery
The cooling fan in the engine
compartment comes on during charging to
cool the on-board charger and the traction
battery.
Balancing the traction battery voltage
After carrying out a full charge (100%)
at least once per week, we recommend not
using the vehicle for about 4 hours.
This time allows the voltage to balance across
all of the traction battery's cells (ensuring a
level voltage across all of its cells).
This process helps keep the traction battery in
good condition and aids in the calculation of
its charging level.
Completely discharged traction
battery
T
o preserve the lifespan of the traction battery
and avoid damaging it, make sure that it is
never completely discharged (0%).
When the charge level drops to 15%, the
message "LOW POWER MODE" appears
on the display integrated into the rear view
mirror. If this message appears while driving,
avoid heavy acceleration and charge the
vehicle as soon as possible.
Long-term parking
Before parking the vehicle for an
extended period, carry out a full charge of the
traction battery.
Park the vehicle in a place where the
temperature will be between 0°C and 45°C
(parking in a place which will experience
extreme temperatures can damage the
traction battery).
Disconnect the cable from the (-) terminal of
the 12
V accessory battery.
Check the level of charge in the traction
battery periodically and charge it if necessary.
When parking the vehicle for more than one
month, keep the level of charge above 50%.
When parking the vehicle for a very long
period, charge the vehicle every 2 months.
Do not leave the charging cable connected.
Lack of use of the traction battery temporarily
affects its performance. At the end of the
parking period, carry out several charge/
discharge cycles to restore the normal
operation of the traction battery.
Precautions
Our electric vehicles have been developed in
accordance with the recommendations on the
maximum limits for electromagnetic fields, as
issued by the International Commission on Non-
Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP - 1998
Guidelines).
Wearers of pacemakers or equivalent
devices
Ask your doctor about what precautions you should take, or ask the manufacturer
of your implanted electro-medical device about
whether its operation is guaranteed in an
environment which complies with the ICNIRP
recommendations.
If in doubt
Accelerated charging: do not remain
inside or near the vehicle, or near the
charging cable or charging unit, even for a
short time.

102
Practical information
