ELECTRIC VEHICLE: charging (4/5)
Recharging the traction 
battery
Ignition switched off:
– open flap  3;
–  take out the entire charging cord 2  located in the storage compartment 
at the front of your vehicle, pulling it 
by the plug using reasonable force. 
The maximum length of the charging 
cord is approximately 3 metres;
–  plug in the end of the cord to the  power supply (domestic plug socket, 
etc);
–  make sure that the stretch limiter 8 of  the charging cord  2 is not exceeded 
during charging. NB:
It is not necessary to wait:
–  until you reach reserve levels in 
order to recharge your vehicle;
–  for a full charge of the traction bat- tery in order to use the vehicle.

When charging, the following informa-
tion is displayed:
– warning light  4. This flashes to indi-
cate that the traction battery is re-
ceiving energy;
–  the completed charge percentage  5;
– warning light  6 indicates that the 
cord is attached to the power supply;
– the battery  7 indicates the amount of 
energy stored in the traction battery.
At the end of a full charge, the instru-
ment panel switches off.

The vehicle can only be charged 
with the ignition switched off.
In the absence of any protection 
against overvoltage, you are ad-
vised not to charge the vehicle in 
stormy weather (lightning, etc).

\bLow traction battery level 
warning light
This comes on when the traction bat-
tery charge level has reached the re-
serve threshold. Please see the infor-
mation on “Displays and indicators” in 
Section 1.
Electrotechnical system 
warning light
If it lights up while driving, this means 
there is an electrotechnical fault in the 
“58 volt” electrical circuit. Please see an 
authorised dealer as soon as possible.
When the vehicle is started or while 
driving, if it flashes accompanied by 
the 
® warning light and a beep, 
this indicates that the charging flap is 
open or not correctly closed. Stop and 
switch off the ignition, make sure that 
the charging cord is disconnected and 
that the flap is fully closed.

WARNING LIGHTS (3/3)
Electrotechnical system 
warning light
When the warning light comes on, this 
indicates the traction battery or the 
engine temperature is too high. Opt for 
a calmer driving style.
The warning light can be accompa-
nied by a drop in vehicle perform-
ance. The presence and operation of the warning lights DEPEND ON THE EQUIPMENT\
 AND COUNTRY.

DISPLAYS AND INDICATORS (1/2)
Charge level 1
The gauge indicates the level of energy 
remaining.
NB: Each time you switch off the igni-
tion, the remaining energy level will be 
calculated.
Once you switch on the ignition again, 
you will see a slight change in the level 
display. The presence and operation of the display and indicators DEPENDS ON THE \
LEVEL OF EQUIPMENT AND THE COUNTRY.
Immobilisation threshold imminent
When the battery reaches less than 6% 
charge, a beep repeats every 20 sec-
onds and warning light 
Ṏ flashes on 
and off.
Motor performance gradually de-
creases until the vehicle comes to a 
stop.
Please see the information on “Towing: 
in the event of energy loss” in Section 5.

Forecast range display features
–  Sporty driving will strongly affect the forecast range value. Once you 
return to a calmer driving style, you 
will need to drive for several miles to 
return to an estimate that is closer to 
the real situation;
–  the forecast range displayed after  charging the traction battery is calcu-
lated based on the power consump-
tion over the last 93 miles (150 kilo-
metres) travelled.
Instrument panel in miles
It is possible to switch to km/h.
Press button 5 and switch on the igni-
tion.
The speed measurement unit indica-
tor flashes for approximately three sec-
onds, then the new unit flashes on the 
display and is then lit up continuously: 
release button  5.
To return to miles, proceed in the same 
manner.Display 4
Press and hold button  5 to reset the trip 
mileage recorder. The display must be 
set to “Trip mileage recorder”. Zones

play the information detailed below by 
pressing button  5 repeatedly:
– estimated range;
–   total mileage recorder;
–   trip mileage recorder;
– Eco score;
–  clock (CS : Clock setting).
Note:  resetting is automatic when 
the maximum capacity of any of the 
memories is exceeded.

CHARGE METER/ECO-CONSUMPTION
Eco-consumption (Éco ScorE)This function shows the driver whether 
their driving style is suitable for an opti-
mum vehicle range.
To display this function, press the end 
of the windscreen wiper stalk as many 
times as necessary.
The squares C indicate increased 
range: the more squares there are, the 
more range there is remaining for the 
vehicle.
Éco ScorE is calculated using the aver-
age from the last 1.8 miles (3 kilome-
tres) travelled. After the traction battery 
is charged, it is calculated based on the 
last 93 miles (150 kilometres).
Power recovery 
B
When driving, if you lift your foot off the 
accelerator pedal, the motor generates 
electrical current during deceleration, 
and this energy is used to recharge the 
traction battery.Charge meter
The charge meter gives the driver a 
real-time view of the vehicle’s remain-
ing power.
Power consumption  A
The traction battery supplies the elec-
trical energy required for the motor to 
move the vehicle.
