Practical information

replaced by a fuse; contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Compatibility of fuels
Diesel fuels conforming to the EN590, EN16734
and EN16709 standards and containing up to
7%, 10%, 20% and 30% fatty acid methyl ester
respectively. The use of B20 or B30 fuels, even
occasionally, imposes special maintenance
conditions referred to as "Arduous conditions".

Paraffinic Diesel fuel conforming to the EN15940
standard.
The use of any other type of (bio) fuel (vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel, etc.) is strictly prohibited (risk
of damage to the engine and fuel system).
The only Diesel fuel additives authorised for use are those that meet the B715000
standard.
Diesel at low temperature
At temperatures below 0 °C (+32 °F), the
formation of paraffins in summer-type Diesel fuels could prevent the engine from operating
correctly
. In these temperature conditions, use
winter-type Diesel fuel and keep the fuel tank
more than 50 % full.
At temperatures below -15 °C (+5 °F) to avoid
problems starting, it is best to park the vehicle
under shelter (heated garage).
Travelling abroad
Certain fuels could damage your vehicle’s
engine.
In certain countries, the use of a particular
fuel may be required (specific octane rating,
specific trade name, etc.) to ensure correct
operation of the engine.
For all additional information, consult a dealer.
Charging system
(Electric)
400 V electrical system
The electrical traction 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.
Observe the warning messages shown on
labels, particularly inside the flap.
All work on or modifications to the vehicle’s
electrical system (including the traction
battery, connectors, orange cables and
other components visible from the interior or
exterior) is strictly prohibited - risk of severe
burns or potentially fatal electric shock
(short-circuit/electrocution)!
In the event of a problem, always contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
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 PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
In the event of exposure to a fire
Immediately exit and evacuate all
passengers from the vehicle. Never attempt
to fight the fire yourself - risk of electrocution!
You must immediately contact the emergency
services, informing them that the incident
involves an electric vehicle.

Practical information
7Charging the traction
battery (Electric)
To charge, connect the vehicle to a domestic
charging unit or a fast public charger (superfast
charging).
For a full charge, follow the desired charging
procedure without interrupting it, until it ends
automatically.
To stop charging at any time, press the locking
button on the remote control for 5 seconds
and remove the charging nozzle. For superfast
charging, also refer to the fast public charger.
The display of information linked to the charging
is integrated into the rear view mirror. For more
information on the Display integrated into the
rear view mirror , refer to the corresponding
section.
As a safety measure, the engine will not start if the charging cable is plugged into
the vehicle's charging connector.
Cooling the traction battery
The cooling fan in the engine
compartment comes on during charging to
cool the on-board charger and the traction
battery.
Balancing the traction battery voltage
After carrying out a full charge (100%)
at least once per week, we recommend not
using the vehicle for about 4 hours.
This time allows the voltage to balance across
all of the traction battery's cells (ensuring a
level voltage across all of its cells).
This process helps keep the traction battery in
good condition and aids in the calculation of
its charging level.
Completely discharged traction
battery
T
o preserve the lifespan of the traction battery
and avoid damaging it, make sure that it is
never completely discharged (0%).
When the charge level drops to 15%, the
message "LOW POWER MODE" appears
on the display integrated into the rear view
mirror. If this message appears while driving,
avoid heavy acceleration and charge the
vehicle as soon as possible.
Long-term parking
Before parking the vehicle for an
extended period, carry out a full charge of the
traction battery.
Park the vehicle in a place where the
temperature will be between 0°C and 45°C
(parking in a place which will experience
extreme temperatures can damage the
traction battery).
Disconnect the cable from the (-) terminal of
the 12
V accessory battery.
Check the level of charge in the traction
battery periodically and charge it if necessary.
When parking the vehicle for more than one
month, keep the level of charge above 50%.
When parking the vehicle for a very long
period, charge the vehicle every 2 months.
Do not leave the charging cable connected.
Lack of use of the traction battery temporarily
affects its performance. At the end of the
parking period, carry out several charge/
discharge cycles to restore the normal
operation of the traction battery.
Precautions
Our electric vehicles have been developed in
accordance with the recommendations on the
maximum limits for electromagnetic fields, as
issued by the International Commission on Non-
Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP - 1998
Guidelines).
Wearers of pacemakers or equivalent
devices
Ask your doctor about what precautions you should take, or ask the manufacturer
of your implanted electro-medical device about
whether its operation is guaranteed in an
environment which complies with the ICNIRP
recommendations.
If in doubt
Accelerated charging: do not remain
inside or near the vehicle, or near the
charging cable or charging unit, even for a
short time.

► Insert the nozzle into the vehicle's charging
connector .
The indicator lamp in the flap comes on fixed to
indicate that the nozzle is locked.
When charging has started, the message
"CHARGING" appears on the display integrated
into the rear view mirror and the level of current
flowing into the traction battery is shown.
If this is not the case, charging has not started.
Depending on the message displayed in the rear
view mirror, proceed as follows:
–
"UNPLUG&PLUG": remove and then reinsert
the nozzle.
–
"WAITING x SEC": wait several seconds until
the message "DC CHARGE READY " appears.
Disconnection
Charging is complete when the message
"CHARGE FULL" is shown on the display
integrated into the rear view mirror.
Before disconnecting the nozzle from the
charging connector:
►

Switch off the current to the charging unit (if
applicable).
or
►


Press the locking button on the remote
control for 5 seconds.
The charging nozzle unlocks (confirmed when
the indicator lamp above the charging connector
goes out).
Accelerated charging, mode 3
When the nozzle is unlocked, the message
"PLUGGED IN" appears in the display integrated
into the rear view mirror.
►

Remove the charging nozzle within 30
seconds

.
If the charging nozzle is not removed
within 30 seconds, it automatically locks
again inside the flap and charging
recommences (the message " CHARGING"
appears on the display integrated into the rear
view mirror).
Superfast charging, mode 4
When the nozzle is unlocked, the message
"CHARGE STOP" appears on the display
integrated into the rear view mirror.
►

W
ait until the message "UNPLUG" appears,
then remove the charging nozzle.
Never try to remove the charging nozzle
when it is locked (indicator lamp on fixed)
- risk of irreversibly damaging the locking
mechanism and preventing charging of the
traction battery!
►

Replace the protective covers over the
charging connector and close the charging flap.
► Disconnect the cable from the charging unit
(if applicable).
Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve
traction as well as the behaviour of the
vehicle when braking.
The snow chains must be fitted only to the front wheels. They must never be
fitted to "space-saver" type spare wheels.
Observe the legislation in force in your
country on the use of snow chains and
the maximum authorised speed.
Only use chains that have been designed to be
fitted to the type of wheel on the vehicle:
Original tyre size Maximum link size.
