Precautions related to high
voltage
Your E- MEHARI uses a high voltage
b attery that can reach 450 volts.
The temperature of the system can be
high during and after starting and when
the vehicle is switched off. Be aware of the
high voltage.
For more information on High voltage
safety , refer to the corresponding section.
Never dismantle, remove, replace or
handle the high voltage components,
cables and connectors as they can cause
serious burns and an electric shock which
could cause serious or fatal injuries.
The high voltage cables are orange in colour.
There is no part of the high voltage system of
your E-MEHARI that can be replaced by the
user; this must only be done by a
qualified
professional.
Take your E-MEHARI to a
CITROËN
authorised repairer or a
qualified professional
for all maintenance and repair of the vehicle's
high voltage system.
Precautions related to road
accidents
In the event of collision
- I f you can drive the vehicle: move the
vehicle to the side of the road, put the
drive selector at position "N" (neutral),
apply the manual parking brake and
switch off your E-MEHARI.

arr y out a visual check of the
condition of your E-MEHARI to verify
that no high voltage cable or component
is visible. To avoid injury: never touch the
cables, the connectors, the charger, the
LMP
® battery or any other part of the high
voltage system on your E-MEHARI. You
could suffer an electric shock if exposed
cables are visible, whether you are inside
or outside the vehicle. Never touch visible
electric cables.

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.

Temporary puncture
repair kit
Access to the repair kit
Your E-MEHARI's puncture repair kit is located
under the boot floor hatch.
The boot floor hatch is opened with the grip
located at the left-hand side of the boot floor
(only if your E-MEHARI is unlocked using your
personal RFID key ring).
Using the repair kit
Refer to the instructions provided with the
compressor.Never remove from a
tyre a foreign body
that has caused a puncture.
The sealant product contained in the
compressor is toxic and is an irritant.
Never ingest it, never spray it onto the
body, face or eyes. If it is ingested, call the emergency services
immediately (fire service, ambulance, etc.) or
go to a


hospital's emergency department.
If it enters the eyes, wash with abundant
clean water and consult a doctor without
d e l ay.
If the symptoms persist, consult a specialist.
Keep the sealant product out of the reach
of children.
Do not simply throw the old cartridge
away after use; take it to your CITROËN
authorised repairer or to a waste recovery
organisation that specialises in this type
of product.
Once the tyre has been repaired, go
to a
CITROËN authorised repairer or
a
qualified professional as soon as
possible.
If you are unable to obtain the desired
pressure after a
few minutes of operation
of the compressor, this means that the
tyre cannot be repaired.
Contact CITROËN ASSISTANCE who will
send a


roadside recovery agent.
Replacing a bulb
All maintenance on the vehicle's lamps must be
carried out by a
CITROËN authorised repairer
or a


qualified professional.
If a
headlamp has to be replaced on your

Replacing a fuse
Fuses under the bonnet
All maintenance on the vehicle's fuses must be
carried out by a
CITROËN authorised repairer
or a


qualified professional.
Your E-MEHARI is an electric vehicle that
includes systems operating at high voltage
and high currents. The maintenance
on the fuses under the bonnet of your
E-MEHARI must be carried out by
a


qualified person.
Incorrect handling could cause an electric
shock resulting in serious injury or death.
Fuses in the passenger
compartment
If an electric system is not working, check the
condition of the fuses. Remove the nut from the access cover
(1)
located below the passenger storage
compartment.
The tweezers for extracting fuses (1) are
located under the bonnet. To check and replace a fuse:
-
E
xtract the fuse using the tweezers (1)
-
S
lide it sideways to release it from the
tweezers
-
I
t is recommended not to use the free fuse
locations
-
D
o not forget to return the tweezers (1)
to
their holder
Check the condition of the fuse and, if
necessary, replace it with a new fuse,
which must be of the same rating as the
original fuse.
A fuse of too high a rating could cause
overheating of the electrical system (risk
of fire) if there were abnormal current
consumption in a circuit.
