In order to offer its optimum range,
your E-MEHARI's LMP® batter y must
be charged whenever possible,
par ticularly during periods when it is
parked for several hours.
A batter y charged to 100% cannot
remain parked for more than 48
hours
without being recharged.
Due to its intrinsic characteristics,
and in contrast to Li-ion batteries, the
LMP
® battery is not sensitive to exterior
temperature conditions.
The vehicle's range has been type-approved
in accordance with European Regulation ECE
101R01.
For more information on the ser vice life of the
LMP
® battery, contact your CITROËN customer
services. IT IS PROHIBITED to recycle or scrap the
LMP
® battery from your E-MEHARI. The
LMP® battery is the property of Bluecar
and must never be discarded.
To help you charge your E-MEHARI's
LMP
® battery correctly, Bluecar may
contact you to tell you that the charge
level is becoming too low.
Driving with a discharged LMP®
battery
When the level of charge of your LMP® battery
becomes too low (20%): a warning lamp
appears on the upper screen of the dashboard.
Your E-MEHARI must be connected to
a
charging point that meets CITROËN's
specifications without delay.
The distance that your E-MEHARI can cover
will be very limited and the output from the
motor (the torque) will be automatically reduced
to increase the potential range.
To charge the LMP
® battery, the vehicle has to
be connected to a
power supply. To improve its
range, your E-MEHARI has an energy recovery
system using the braking effect of the electric
motor on deceleration.
Your E-MEHARI is a
vehicle that emits no
polluting gases, such as CO
2, nor micro-
particles. Your E-MEHARI is also completely
silent.
The LMP® (Lithium Metal
Polymer) battery
Your E-MEHARI contains a high
v oltage LMP® battery isolated from its
surroundings by its unique packaging
arrangement. The LMP
® battery must
only be handled by trained and qualified
persons. Never handle the LMP
® battery
yourself: risk of severe burns, electric
shock that could cause serious or fatal
injuries and risks for the environment.
NEVER HANDLE THE LMP
® B AT T E RY
YOURSELF.
Precautions on the use of the
LMP® battery
To avoid damaging the LMP® battery, it is
recommended that:
•
T
he vehicle be placed on charge straight
away if the charge indicator drops to 0%.
•
T
HE LMP® BATTERY NEVER BE USED
FOR ANY OTHER PURPOSE.
