To top up the screenwash fluid: remove the cap
from the reser voir, place a funnel in the neck
of the reser voir and fill the reser voir up to the
"MAX" mark.
In low temperatures, use a
screenwash
fluid with adequate protection against
freezing.
Always be extremely vigilant when
filling the screenwash reservoir and
take account of the general safety
recommendations mentioned in this
handbook.
Hibernation mode
Hibernation mode allows the consumption
of energy from the battery to be reduced to
a
minimum.
In this way you can park your E-MEHARI, not
connected and therefore with no consumption
of electrical energy, for several weeks or even
several months.
Coming out of hibernation mode takes 4
hours
and is followed by the charging time (a
maximum of between 8
and 13 hours).
You cannot put your E-MEHARI into
hibernation with a
battery state of charge
of less than 25%.
Going into hibernation
mode
Maximum hibernation period
depending on the state of charge
of the battery
In hibernation, the battery will self-discharge by
between 0.5% and 1% per day.
Therefore, the maximum duration of
hibernation depending on the battery charge
level is:
100%: 4
months
75% – 99%: 3
months
50% – 74%: 2
months
25% – 49%: 1
month 2.
If necessary, unlock your vehicle and
disconnect the charging plug.
3. Turn the ignition key to the first position,
the screen then displays:
4. Press the settings button (1) on the
right of the screen. The screen displays
various possible choices.
5. Select "Extended dormancy" using the
arrows.
6. Press and hold the settings button for
5
seconds.
7. Switch off the ignition. Entry into
hibernation mode is confirmed.
1. Move your vehicle close to a
charging
point.

The screen goes off after 30 seconds.
T he switch to hibernation mode takes effect
after approximately 4
hours.
During this time, it is possible to cancel
switching to hibernation mode, as well as to
unlock or lock the vehicle.
Once this time has passed, your vehicle can no
longer be locked or unlocked.
If you intend to lock your vehicle, make sure to
take out your charging cable beforehand.
If the vehicle is to be put into hibernation
mode for a
long period, to prolong the ser vice
life of the 12
V ancillaries battery, you can
remove it or disconnect its (-) terminal.
Cancelling the switch to
hibernation mode
The switch to hibernation mode takes effect
after approximately 4 hours.
During this time, it is possible to cancel
switching to hibernation mode.
It will not necessarily be possible to use your
E-MEHARI right away (a long warm-up phase
may take place depending on the time between
starting hibernation and cancelling it).
If the screen displays "Standby – Connect the
plug" (with the vehicle logo circled in red), you
will not be able to start. Switch off the ignition
and connect your E-MEHARI.
Coming out of hibernation
mode
You have to be in possession of the charging
cable and be able to connect your vehicle to
a
power supply to be able to wake the vehicle
from hibernation. 1.
Press the settings button on the right of
the screen. The screen asks if you wish
to cancel the hibernation.
2. Press and hold the settings button
for 5 seconds to cancel the switch to
hibernation mode. It is imperative that you do not
disconnect the vehicle during the
warm-up phase.
After the warm-up phase, the charging of
the battery begins.
Wait until the charge level reaches 100%
before disconnecting your E-MEHARI.
Audio system
Radio
Your E-MEHARI is pre-wired to receive any
audio system with ISO connectors.
You can install the model of your choice.
However, as your E-MEHARI can only
accommodate one audio system, installing
a
new audio system means that the Bluetooth
audio system which is already fitted must be
disconnected. To come out of hibernation mode, simply
connect the charging cable.
It takes approximately 4
hours for the battery
to wake up.
During this warm-up phase, the indicator
lamp on the charging shut-off button and the
charging indicator lamp on the display flash
rapidly.
