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
Superfast charging: do not use the system
yourself and avoid approaching public fast
charging points. Leave the area and ask a
third party to recharge the vehicle.
Before charging
Accelerated charging
Depending on the context:
►
Have a professional check that the
electrical system to be used complies with
applicable standards and is compatible with
the vehicle.
►
Have an accelerated charging unit which
is compatible with the vehicle installed by a
professional.
Favour the use of the cable supplied with the
vehicle or as an accessory
.
For more information, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Superfast charging
Check that the fast public charging
station and its charging cable are compatible
with the vehicle.
During charging
Never work under the bonnet:
– Some areas remain very hot, even an
hour after charging ends - risk of burns!
–
The fan may start at any time - risk of cuts
or strangulation!
The performance of the traction battery varies depending on the outside
temperature and the temperature inside the
traction battery itself.
During charging, the outside temperature
must ideally be between 0°C and 45°C.
Charging is not possible when the
temperature inside the traction battery is
below -5°C or above 55°C. Charging time
may be longer if the temperature is below
0°C.
In cold weather, immediately connect the
vehicle after switching off the ignition.
Significant variations in the level of
incoming electric current may stop the
charging process.
►
Disconnect the charging cable and wait for
the level of electric current to return to normal.
After charging

(if applicable).
Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve
traction as well as the behaviour of the
vehicle when braking.
The snow chains must be fitted only to the front wheels. They must never be
fitted to "space-saver" type spare wheels.
Observe the legislation in force in your
country on the use of snow chains and
the maximum authorised speed.
Only use chains that have been designed to be
fitted to the type of wheel on the vehicle:
Original tyre size Maximum link size.
205/70 R15 16 mm
215/70 R15 12 mm
225/70 R15 16 mm
215/75 R16 12 mm
225/75 R16 16 mm
For more information, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.

Practical information
For more information on the precautions
to take before any work on the 12 V
battery, refer to the corresponding section.
Versions equipped with Stop & Start are
fitted with a 12 V lead-acid battery of
specific technology and specification.
Its replacement should be carried out only by
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Air filter
Depending on the environment and the
use of the vehicle (e.g. dusty atmosphere,
city driving), change it twice as often, if
necessary .
Passenger compartment
filter
Depending on the environment and the
use of the vehicle (e.g. dusty atmosphere,
city driving), change it twice as often, if
necessary .
A clogged passenger compartment filter
can adversely affect air conditioning
system performance and generate
undesirable odours.
Oil filter
Change the oil filter each time the engine
oil is changed.
Particle filter (Diesel)
In addition to the catalytic converter, this filter
actively contributes to the preservation of
air quality by trapping the unburnt pollutant
particles. Black exhaust fumes are therefore not
emitted.
Operation
This filter, inserted into the exhaust system,
accumulates the carbonaceous particles. The
engine management computer automatically
and periodically manages the removal of
carbonaceous particles (regeneration).
The regeneration procedure is triggered
according to the amount of accumulated
particles and the conditions of use of the vehicle.
During this phase, you may notice certain
phenomena - accelerated idling, triggering of
the cooling fan, increased smoke and increased
temperature at the exhaust - which have no
impact on the operation of the vehicle and the
environment.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle, you
may, in exceptional circumstances, notice the
emission of water vapour at the exhaust while
accelerating. This has no impact on the
vehicle’s behaviour and the environment.
Due to the high exhaust temperatures
caused by the normal operation of the
particle filter, it is recommended not to park
the vehicle on flammable materials (grass, dry
leaves, pine needles, etc.) to avoid any risk of
fire.
Saturation/Regeneration
If there is a risk of clogging, this warning
lamp comes on, accompanied by a
message on the instrument panel display.
This warning is due to the start of saturation of
the particle filter (exceptionally long urban driving
conditions: reduced speed, traffic jams, etc.).
In order to regenerate the filter, it is
recommended to drive as soon as possible -
when traffic conditions and regulations permit
- at a speed of at least 37 mph (60 km/h), with
an engine speed above 2,000 rpm for about
15 minutes (until the warning lamp and/or the
message disappear).
If possible, avoid switching off the engine
before the end of filter regeneration; repeated
interruptions can lead to early deterioration of the
engine oil. It is not recommended to terminate
the filter regeneration with the vehicle stationary.
Malfunction
If this alert persists, do not ignore this warning;
this indicates that a malfunction has occurred in
the exhaust system/particle filter assembly.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
