Driving
6Noise (Electric)
On the outside
Due to the vehicle’s quiet operation when
driving, the driver must pay particular attention.
When manoeuvring, the driver must always
check the vehicle's immediate surroundings.
At speeds of up to 19 mph (30 km/h), the
pedestrian horn warns other road users of the
vehicle’s presence.
Cooling the traction battery
The cooling fan comes on during
charging to cool the on-board charger and the
traction battery.
On the inside
During use, you may hear certain perfectly
normal noises specific to electric vehicles, such
as:
–
T
raction battery relay when starting.
–
V
acuum pump when braking.
–
V
ehicle tyres or aerodynamics when driving.
–
Jolting and knocking noise during hill starts.
Towing
Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and
particular care must be taken.
Do not exceed the maximum towable
weights.
At altitude: reduce the maximum load by
10% per 1,000 metres of altitude; the lower
air density at high altitudes decreases engine
performance.
New vehicle: do not tow a trailer until the
vehicle has driven at least 620 miles
(1,000 kilometres).
If the outside temperature is high, let the
engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the
vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.
Before setting off
Nose weight
► Distribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest items are located as close as possible
to the axle, and the nose weight (at the point
where it joins your vehicle) approaches the
maximum permitted, without exceeding it.
Tyres
► Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer , observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
► Check the electrical signalling on the trailer
and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.
If a genuine PEUGEOT towing device is
used, the rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid activating
the audible signal.
When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill causes the coolant
temperature to increase. The maximum towable
load depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature. The fan’s cooling capacity does not
increase with engine speed.
►
Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to
limit the amount of heating produced.
►
Pay constant attention to the coolant
temperature.
If this warning lamp and the STOP
warning lamp come on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as
possible.
Brakes
Using the engine brake is recommended to limit
the overheating of the brakes. Braking distances
are increased when towing a trailer.
Side wind
Bear in mind that the vehicle will be more
susceptible to wind when towing.

workshop.
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.
Traction battery
The 48 V Li-ion (Lithium-ion) traction battery
stores the electrical energy needed to propel the
vehicle.
The traction battery is automatically charged to
ensure that the charge level is always around
50% of the maximum level, in order to fully
exploit the hybrid functionality and, at the same
time, always have some capacity available for
the energy recovery operation.
It is located under the front left seat.
The traction battery's range varies depending on
the type of driving, the route and the ageing of its
components.
The traction battery ageing depends on several factors, such as climatic
conditions and the distance travelled.
To preserve the mileage of your vehicle and the durability of your traction battery,
PEUGEOT recommends that you:
–
Do not expose the vehicle to temperatures
below -30°C and above +60°C for more than
24
hours.
–
Do not use a generator to recharge your
vehicle's traction battery
.
Vehicle in storage for more than
1 month
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).
Carry out the charging procedure for the
traction battery (48V) via the accessory
battery (12V) and the DC/DC converter.
Refer to the 12 V battery/Accessory
batteries section for the charging the
batteries using a battery charger procedure.
