Then, reconnect the wall socket first. For more information, refer to the handbook.
Rechargeable hybrid
system
Electrical system
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on
electrified vehicles and the Specific
recommendations on rechargeable hybrid
or electric vehicles.
The electrical circuit of the rechargeable hybrid
system is identified by orange cables and its
components are marked with this symbol:


The rechargeable hybrid powertrain uses a voltage of between 240 V and 400 V.
This system may be hot both when the
ignition is on and after switching it off.
Comply with the warning messages shown
on the labels, particularly inside the charging
flap.
Traction battery
The Li-ion (Lithium-ion) traction battery stores
the electrical energy needed to propel the
vehicle.
It is located in the boot.
The traction battery's range varies depending
on the type of driving, the route, the use of
thermal comfort equipment and the ageing of its
components.
The traction battery ageing depends on several factors, such as climatic
conditions and the distance travelled.

The estimated charging time is indicated on the instrument panel when the vehicle
is connected. It may vary depending on
various factors such as the outside
temperature or the quality of the electricity
supply.
If the outside temperature is below -10°C, it
is recommended to connect the vehicle as
soon as possible as the charging time may
increase significantly. The traction battery
may not charge fully.Domestic charging cable (mode 2)
It is essential to avoid damaging the
cable and to keep it intact.
In the event of damage, do not use it and
contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified
workshop to replace it.

Charging the traction
battery (Rechargeable
hybrid)
Principle
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on
electrified vehicles and the Specific
recommendations on rechargeable hybrid
or electric vehicles.

171
Practical information
7For a full charge, follow the charging procedure
without interrupting it, until it stops automatically.
Charging may be performed either immediately
(by default) or deferred.
Deferred charging is set via the touch
screen or the MYPEUGEOT APP
application.
When the vehicle is connected, the following
information is displayed on the instrument panel:
–

T

raction battery charge status (%).
–

Remaining range (miles or km).
–


Estimated charging time (calculation may take
a few seconds).
–


Charging speed (miles or km gained per hour).
After the instrument panel has been put into
standby mode, this information can be displayed
again by unlocking the vehicle or opening a door

.
It is also possible to monitor the charging
progress using the MYPEUGEOT APP
application.
For more information on Remotely
operable additional functions , refer to the
corresponding section.
Lounge mode
When the vehicle is connected, it is
possible to switch on the ignition and use
certain functions such as the audio and
telematics system and the air conditioning
system for several hours.
Low charging / Driving
Driving when the charge level of the
traction battery is too low can lead to the
vehicle breaking down and can lead to
accidents or serious injuries. ALWAYS make
sure the traction battery has a sufficient
charge level.
Low charging / Parking
If the outside temperature is negative,
it is recommended not to park your vehicle
outside for several hours at a low charging
(less than 20%).
Vehicle in storage for more than
1 month
In the event of a long period of non-use of
the vehicle (beyond 4
weeks) without the
possibility of charging when restarting, the
self-discharge may make it impossible to
restart if the traction battery charge level
is a low or very low, especially at negative
ambient temperatures. ALWAYS make sure
that the traction battery has a charge between
20% and 40% if you do not plan to use your
vehicle for several weeks.
Do not connect the charging cable.
Always park the vehicle in a place with
temperatures between -10°C and 30°C
(parking in a place with extreme temperatures
can damage the traction battery).
Refer to the 12 V battery/Accessory
batteries section for the battery disconnection
procedure.
Precautions
Before charging
Depending on the context:
►

Have a professional check that the
electrical system to be used complies with
applicable standards and is compatible with
the vehicle.
►


Have a professional electrician install
a dedicated domestic power socket or
accelerated charging unit (W

allbox)
compatible with the vehicle.
Use the charging cable supplied with the
vehicle.
For more information, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
During charging
As a safety measure, the engine will
not start if the charging cable is plugged into
the connector on the vehicle. A warning is
displayed on the instrument panel.
While charging is in progress, unlocking the
vehicle will cause the charging to stop.
If no action is taken on one of the openings
(door or boot) or on the charging nozzle, the
vehicle will lock again after 30 seconds and
charging will resume automatically.

172
Practical information
Never work under the bonnet:
– Some areas remain very hot, even an hour
after charging ends - risk of burns!
–

The fan may start at any time - risk of cuts
or strangulation!
After charging
Check that the charging flap is closed.
Do not leave the cable connected to the
domestic power socket - risk of short-circuit
or electrocution in the event of contact with or
immersion in water!
Deferred charging

Charging system
(Electric)
400 V electrical system
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on
electrified vehicles and the Specific
recommendations on rechargeable hybrid
or electric vehicles.
The electric drive system, which operates at a
voltage of approximately 400 V, is identified by
orange cables and its components are marked
with this symbol:


An electric vehicle’s power train can become hot during use and after
switching off the ignition.
Comply with the warning messages shown
on the labels, particularly inside the charging
flap.
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
