Power cut-off in the event
of an impact
In the event of an impact or accident, an impact
detection system on your E-MEHARI cuts off
the vehicle's high voltage power supply.
Anti-theft protection/
Electronic immobiliser
Your E-MEHARI is fitted with an electronic
immobiliser.
This immobiliser is directly linked to your
personal RFID key ring.
Only your personal RFID key ring gives
authorisation to use your E-MEHARI.Check that your key is at the STOP
position of the starting switch or removed
from the starting switch before locking
your E-MEHARI.
Assistance call
Your E-MEHARI is equipped with an assistance
call control button.
This ser vice puts you in 24/7 contact with an
adviser trained to help you take the appropriate
action and who will have answers for situations
where you may encounter problems.
The assistance call button is connected to
a
hands-free communication system, allowing
you to remain attentive while driving your
vehicle.
To call CITROËN ASSISTANCE or end the call,
press the assistance call button.
If you receive a
call while you are in the vehicle,
the system answers it automatically.
ABS – ESP
These systems are additional aids when
driving in critical situations, allowing the
behaviour of the vehicle to be adapted to
the driver's wishes.
However these systems do not inter vene
in place of the driver.
They cannot extend the vehicle's limits
and should not encourage you to drive
f a s t e r.
They cannot, in any circumstances,
replace the need for vigilance, or
the responsibility of the driver when
manoeuvring the vehicle (the driver must
always be watchful for sudden events that
could occur while driving).
ABS (anti-lock braking
system)
The ABS prevents locking of the wheels under
heavy braking, so optimising the stopping
distance and allowing control of the vehicle to
be retained.
In these conditions, avoidance manoeuvres
during braking are therefore possible.
In addition, this system optimises the stopping
distance on sur faces offering poor grip (wet
roads, etc.).
Safety
37
Operation of the system can be felt by vibration
in the brake pedal.
The ABS does not improve the "physical"
per formance possible, which depends on the
grip between the tyres and the road.
It follows that the normal safe driving practices
must be obser ved (distance between vehicles,
e t c .) .In an emergency, it is recommended that you
apply the brakes firmly and continuously.
It is not necessary to successively apply and
release the brakes (pumping the pedal).
The ABS will modulate the brake effort
applied.
ABS (warning lamp)
It comes on when the vehicle is switched on
and then goes off shortly after wards.
If it comes on when driving, it signals a fault in
the anti-lock braking system.
The braking system then operates as on
a
vehicle not fitted with ABS. Contact
a
CITROËN authorised repairer or a qualified
professional without delay.
ESP
This system helps retain control of the vehicle
in "critical" driving situations (avoiding an
obstacle, loss of grip in a
corner, etc.).
Principle of operation
A steering wheel sensor provides information
on the trajectory wanted by the driver.
Other sensors around the vehicle measure the
actual trajectory.
The system compares the driver's wishes with
the actual trajectory of the vehicle, correcting
the latter if necessary by acting on certain
brakes and/or the motor power.
ESP (warning lamp)
It comes on when the vehicle is switched on
and then goes off shortly after wards.
The ESP warning lamp flashes in regulation
mode, when it is called on to maintain grip.
If it comes on when driving, it signals a
fault
in the ESP system: contact a
CITROËN
authorised repairer or a
qualified professional
without delay.
Seat belts
Your E-MEHARI is fitted with four 3 -point seat
belts:
-
O
ne for the driver's seat.
-
O
ne for the front passenger's seat.
-
T
wo for the rear bench seat.
To correctly position a
seat belt: place the lap
strap as low as possible on your hips, correctly
adjusted.
Ensure that the diagonal belt passes over your
shoulder.
All persons carried in your E-MEHARI
must always wear a
seat belt.

Maintaining and servicing
your E-MEHARI
The maintenance and servicing of your vehicle
must be carried out by a CITROËN authorised
repairer or a
qualified professional and in line
with the principles stated in the Maintenance
and Warranty Guide.
Washing precautions
Never wash the charging socket, the
traction battery or under the bonnet using
a
high pressure jet wash: risk of damage
to the electrical system.
Never wash the vehicle while it is
charging: risk of electric shock that could
cause death.
Cleaning the vehicle by the regular use
of a
high pressure car wash with rotating
brushes is not recommended.
Not recommended for care
of the bodywork
- Degreasing or cleaning the mechanical components under the body, parts with
hinges, exterior plastic panels using a
high
pressure jet wash or spraying products not
intended for this purpose, such as solvents.
-
W
ashing the vehicle in direct sunlight.
-
R
emoving mud or stains without first
soaking with water.
Recommended for care of
the bodywork
- Washing your E-MEHARI regularly using car shampoo specifically created for the
care of vehicles with plastic body parts
(never with abrasive products).
-
R
insing and thoroughly hosing off as
soon as possible resinous deposits from
trees, fallout from industrial pollution and
bird droppings which produce a
chemical
reaction with the bodywork causing rapid
discolouration. Only the seats, covered with an impermeable
material, and the floor can be washed using
a
water jet (check first that the drainage holes,
located at the front on each side of the central
console in the passenger footwells are not
blocked).
Care of interior trim
Stains should always be dealt with quickly.
For all types of stain, you should use warm or
cold soapy water based on natural soap.
Detergents (washing up liquid, powder
products, alcohol-based products, etc.) must
not be used.
-
U
se a soft cloth.
-
R
inse and absorb the excess.
-
F
inish by wiping gently with a dry, soft cloth.
As it is not watertight, the dashboard must
never be washed using water.
