Ease of use and comfort
USB socket(s)
Socket 1 enables audio files sent to your audio
system to be played through the vehicle's
speakers.
When the USB socket is used, the
portable device charges automatically.
While charging, a message is displayed if the
power drawn by the portable device exceeds
the current supplied by the vehicle.
For more information about how to use this
equipment, refer to the sections describing
the audio and telematics systems.
* Only on the Citroën Berlingo V an.
Socket 1 allows a
smartphone to be
connected
by Android Auto
® or CarPlay®,
enabling certain smartphone applications to be
used on the touch screen.
Sockets 1 and 2* allow a portable device to be
connected in order to charge it.
For best results, use a cable made or approved
by the device manufacturer.
These applications can be managed using the
steering-mounted controls or the audio system
controls.
220 V/50 Hz socket
AC 220V
50Hz 120W
It is located on the side of the central storage
compartment.
This socket (max. power: 150
W) operates with
the engine running, and with the Stop & Start
system in STOP mode.
►
Lift the protective cover
.
►
Check that the green indicator lamp is on.
► Connect your multimedia or other electrical
device (telephone charger , laptop computer,
CD-DVD player, bottle warmer, etc.).
In the event of a malfunction, the
green
indicator lamp flashes.
Have the socket checked by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Connect only one device at a time to the
socket (do not use extension leads or
multi-socket adapters).
Connect only devices with class II insulation
(shown on the device).
Do not use metal-cased devices (e.g. electric
shaver, etc.).
As a safety measure, if power consumption is high and power is
required by the vehicle's electrical system
(due to severe weather conditions, electrical
overload, etc.), power to the socket may be
cut off, in which case the green indicator lamp
goes off.

Practical information
7– Do not inhale the gases emitted by the
traction battery which are toxic.
–
Move away from the vehicle in the event of
incident or accident, the gases emitted being
flammable and could cause a fire.
This label is intended solely for use by firefighters and maintenance services in
the event of any work on the vehicle.
No other person must touch the device shown
on this label.
In the event of an accident or impact
to the vehicle’s underbody
In these situations, the electrical
circuit or the
traction battery can be seriously damaged.
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so and switch
off the ignition.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
When washing
Before washing the vehicle, always
check that the charging flap is closed
correctly.
Never wash the vehicle while the battery is
on charge.
High-pressure washing
To avoid damaging the electrical
components, it is expressly prohibited to
use high-pressure washing in the engine
compartment or under the body.
Do not use a pressure greater than 80 bar
when washing the bodywork.
Never allow water or dust to enter the
connector or charging nozzle - risk of
electrocution or fire!
Never connect / disconnect the charging
nozzle or cable with wet hands - risk of
electrocution!
Traction battery
This battery stores the energy that powers
the electric motor and the thermal comfort
equipment in the passenger compartment. It is
discharged during use, and must therefore be
regularly recharged. There is no need to wait
for the traction battery to fall to its reserve level
before recharging.
The range of the battery may vary according
to the type of driving, the route, the use of
thermal comfort equipment and the ageing of its
components.
The lifespan of the traction battery depends on multiple factors, such as
climatic conditions, distance travelled and
how often it has been fast-charged.
To preserve the mileage of your vehicle and the durability of your traction battery,
CITROËN recommends that you:
–
Do not fully charge the battery of your
electric vehicle daily (charge the traction
battery below 80% as often as possible).
–
Do not completely discharge the battery
.
–
Do not store the vehicle for a long period
of non-use (more than 12
hours) when the
traction battery has a low or high charge level.
Prefer a charge level between 20 and 40%.
–
Limit the use of fast charging.
–
Do not expose the vehicle to temperatures
below -30°C and above +60°C for more than
24
hours.
–
A
void charging the vehicle at negative
temperatures (except if the vehicle ran more
than 20
minutes) or above +30°C.
–
Do not use the vehicle's traction battery as
a generator of energy
.
–
Do not use a generator to recharge your
vehicle's traction battery
.

Practical information
In the event of damage to the traction
battery
It is strictly prohibited to work on the vehicle
yourself.
Do not touch liquids coming from the battery,
and in the event of skin contact with these
products, wash abundantly with water and
contact a doctor as soon as possible.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
Disposal of the traction battery
The traction battery is designed for the life of the
vehicle if the recommendations of CITROËN are
followed.
If it becomes necessary to replace the battery,
contact the CITROËN dealer for instructions on
its disposal. Improper disposal carries the risk of
severe burns, electric shock, and damage to the
environment.
In accordance with regulations, CITROËN
ensures a second life or recycling of this
component in collaboration with qualified
operators.

charging flap, do not use it.
Do not dismantle or modify the charging
connector - risk of electrocution and/or fire!
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Charging cables, sockets
and chargers
The charging cable supplied with the vehicle
(depending on version) is compatible with the
electrical systems in the country of sale. When travelling abroad, check the compatibility of local
electrical systems with the charging cable.
A full range of charging cables is available from
your dealer.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop for more information and to obtain
suitable charging cables.
Identification labels on charging
sockets/connectors
