E-MEHARI
An elegant design
combined with the latest
technology
Your E-MEHARI is an innovative electric
vehicle with a
new approach to mobility. Some
of the vehicle's systems operate differently from
those on a
conventional internal combustion
engine vehicle.
Your E-MEHARI uses energy stored in an
LMP
® (Lithium Metal Polymer) battery. The
LMP® battery has to be charged before you
can drive your E-MEHARI. The LMP® battery
progressively discharges during use of the
vehicle.
If the state of charge of the LMP
® battery is at
0%, your E-MEHARI cannot be started: the
LMP
® battery must be charged.
A full recharge (from 0% to 100%) on a normal
domestic power supply (standard charge) takes
between 8
and 13 hours on average depending
on the electrical system you have installed.
Your E-MEHARI uses two different types of
battery: the LMP
® battery to drive the vehicle
and a
12
V battery, as on a conventional
vehicle with an internal combustion engine.
The 12
V battery provides the energy needed
for operation of the vehicle's systems: e.g. the
audio system, the exterior and interior lighting,
the windscreen wipers.

Be particularly aware of pedestrians, cyclists,
children and motorcyclists. Your E-MEHARI
is a silent vehicle, and they may not hear you
coming, which could give rise to collisions. To avoid collisions with pedestrians, your
E-MEHARI is fitted with a
special horn. This
special pedestrian horn allows you to announce
your approach in a friendly and less aggressive
way than would be the case with a conventional
horn.
For more information on the Horns , refer to the
corresponding section.
Before moving off, leave your foot on the brake
pedal until you are ready to drive. Before
getting out of your E-MEHARI, do not forget
to put the drive selector back to position "N",
apply the manual parking brake and switch off
your vehicle. -
Y
our E-MEHARI has a system for energy
recovery on deceleration. The main goal of
the recovery of energy is to recover in the
LMP
® battery part of the energy generated
when the vehicle is slowing down, in order
to improve the range of the LMP
® battery
and thus the driving distance. In your
E-MEHARI, it is the braking effect of the
electric motor that plays this role.
-
S
pecial case: following a
full charge of
the LMP
® battery and during the initial
subsequent use of the vehicle, the
braking effect of the electric motor may
be temporarily reduced. You should adapt
your driving as a consequence.
-
W
e therefore recommend that you
anticipate the need to slow down as much
as possible, so as to obtain the maximum
driving range.
-
T
he brake pedal should be used to slow
or stop the vehicle according to the road
and traffic conditions. Your E-MEHARI's
brakes do not provide any energy
r e c ove r y.
Precautions in the event of
an electrical failure
In the event of a general electric failure, your
E -MEHARI will no longer be driven by the
electric motor. As quickly as possible, you
must place the vehicle in a
safe area obser ving
the driving regulations on road safety (hard
shoulder, side of the road, etc.).
Immobilise your E-MEHARI, switch on the
hazard warning lamps, get out of the vehicle
and stand in a
safe place, put on your high-
visibility vest and call CITROËN ASSISTANCE,
who will contact the emergency and roadside
assistance services.

Use the hazard warning lamps only to
signal unusual action on your part and
only if your vehicle presents a safety
risk to other drivers: an emergency stop
because of a
vehicle failure, the need to
drive abnormally slowly, etc...
While the hazard warning lamps are on,
your E-MEHARI's direction indicators can
no longer be used to indicate changes of
direction.
Horns and audible
warnings
" Standard " horn
To use the "standard" horn: press the central
hub of the steering wheel.
Horn for pedestrians
Operation
Your E-MEHARI produces no noise from its
electric motor.
It has a
special horn for warning pedestrians of
your approach.
This horn sounds when the vehicle's speed is
between approximately 0.6
and 18 mph (1 and
30
km/h).
Deactivation
In certain driving conditions you can deactivate
the system.
Make a
short press on the end of the wiper
control stalk.
Another press reactivates the system.
Before deactivating the system, make
sure that you are not driving in an area
frequented by pedestrians. The system is reactivated automatically at
every new start.
Audible warning emergency
services
Your E-MEHARI has an audible warning
system should there be a
problem with the
LMP
® battery fitted to the vehicle. A message
also appears on the dashboard instrument
panel.
For more information on the Instruments and
indicators on your E-MEHARI , refer to the
corresponding section.
If operation of this system is triggered (the
audible warning cannot be switched off), you
must stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do
so, get out of the vehicle, and call CITROËN
ASSISTANCE.
Please tell the call handler that your
vehicle is an electric vehicle.
Stay at least ten metres away from your
vehicle when an LMP
® battery warning
has been triggered.
An LMP
® battery is an energy storage
device.
