Power cut-off in the event
of an impact
In the event of an impact or accident, an impact
detection system on your E-MEHARI cuts off
the vehicle's high voltage power supply.
Anti-theft protection/
Electronic immobiliser
Your E-MEHARI is fitted with an electronic
immobiliser.
This immobiliser is directly linked to your
personal RFID key ring.
Only your personal RFID key ring gives
authorisation to use your E-MEHARI.Check that your key is at the STOP
position of the starting switch or removed
from the starting switch before locking
your E-MEHARI.
Assistance call
Your E-MEHARI is equipped with an assistance
call control button.
This ser vice puts you in 24/7 contact with an
adviser trained to help you take the appropriate
action and who will have answers for situations
where you may encounter problems.
The assistance call button is connected to
a
hands-free communication system, allowing
you to remain attentive while driving your
vehicle.
To call CITROËN ASSISTANCE or end the call,
press the assistance call button.
If you receive a
call while you are in the vehicle,
the system answers it automatically.
ABS – ESP
These systems are additional aids when
driving in critical situations, allowing the
behaviour of the vehicle to be adapted to
the driver's wishes.
However these systems do not inter vene
in place of the driver.
They cannot extend the vehicle's limits
and should not encourage you to drive
f a s t e r.
They cannot, in any circumstances,
replace the need for vigilance, or
the responsibility of the driver when
manoeuvring the vehicle (the driver must
always be watchful for sudden events that
could occur while driving).
ABS (anti-lock braking
system)
The ABS prevents locking of the wheels under
heavy braking, so optimising the stopping
distance and allowing control of the vehicle to
be retained.
In these conditions, avoidance manoeuvres
during braking are therefore possible.
In addition, this system optimises the stopping
distance on sur faces offering poor grip (wet
roads, etc.).

Stopping the charge
The charging nozzle will only disconnect if
your E-MEHARI is unlocked using the personal
RFID key ring.
1.Press the charging shut-off button in
the charging socket panel, wait until the
charging nozzle is unlocked then pull it
out. If you do not remove the charging
nozzle within the next 10
seconds, the
vehicle star ts charging again. You will
then have to star t the operation again.
2. Refit the protective cover on the charging
nozzle.
3. Disconnect the plug from the power point.
4.
Charging starts automatically. The
CHARGING indicator lamp on the control
unit comes on to indicate that charging is
in progress.
Several signals indicate that the vehicle's
battery is charging:
-
T
he right-hand rear lamp flashes 5
times at
the start of the charge.
-
T
he charging indicator lamp (in the form of
a
green plug) in the display screen flashes
continuously.
Flashing green continuously: charging is in
progress.
Fixed green: charging is complete.
-
T
he indicator lamp on the charging shut-off
button gives the same indication as the
charging indicator lamp on the display.
Flashing green continuously: charging is in
progress.
Fixed green: charging is complete.
If the central screen is lit, the message
"Charging" will be displayed as well as an
estimate of the charge time remaining. Notes on charging
Once you have connected your
E-MEHARI, you have 30
seconds to lock
the vehicle.
After this, your E-MEHARI will remain
unlocked.
However, as a
security measure, the
driving permissions will be cancelled.
-
I
f you wish to use your E-MEHARI
again, offer up your key ring in front of
the RFID reader to regain the driving
permissions.
-
T
o lock your E-MEHARI, scan twice.
The 1
st time will be interpreted as
a
recovery of the driving permissions, the
2
nd time will lock the vehicle.
