To open, pull handle 1, located on the
left-hand side of the dashboard.
BONNET (1/2)
1
When working in the engine
compartment, certain parts
may be hot. In addition,
the engine cooling fan can
come on at any moment.
Risk of burns or serious injury.
In the event of even a slight
impact involving the radia-
tor grille or bonnet, have the
bonnet lock checked by an
authorised dealer as soon as pos-
sible.
Do not do any work under
the bonnet when the vehicle
is charging or when the igni-
tion is switched on.
Unlocking the bonnet catch
Lift the bonnet by several centimetres
and push lever 2 to the left.
2
When working in the engine
compartment, ensure that
the windscreen wiper stalk
is in the park position.
Risk of injury.

4.3
Opening the bonnet
Lift the bonnet; you will need to guide it
as it is held by a strut.
Ensure that the bonnet is
properly locked.
Ensure that nothing is pre-
venting locking (grit, cloths,
etc.).
After carrying out any work
in the engine compart-
ment, check that nothing
has been left behind (cloth,
tools, etc.).
Otherwise, this may lead to engine
damage.
BONNET (2/2)
Closing the bonnet
Check that nothing has been left in the
engine compartment.
To close the bonnet again, hold the
bonnet in the middle and guide it down,
allowing a 30 cm gap before it is closed,
then release it. It will latch automatically
under its own weight.
Do not press down on the
bonnet: there is a risk that
the bonnet will close inad-
vertently.

4.4
Replacement intervals
Refer to the Maintenance Document for
your vehicle.
LEVELS (1/2)
CoolantThe level is checked with the engine
switched off and on flat ground. The
level when cold must be between the
“MIN” and “MAX” marks on the coolant
reservoir 1. Top this level up when cold before the
“MINIMUM” mark is reached. Checking intervals
Check the coolant level regularly
(very severe damage is likely to be
caused to the engine if it runs out of
coolant).
If the level needs to be topped up, only
use products approved by our Technical
Department which ensure:
– protection against freezing;
– anticorrosion protection of the cool-
ing system.
No operations should be
carried out on the cooling
circuit when the engine is
hot.
Risk of burns.
Consult your approved dealer at
once if you notice an abnormal or
repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels.
Do not do any work under
the bonnet when the vehicle
is charging or when the igni-
tion is switched on.

Brake fluid level
The level should be read with the engine
switched off and on level ground. This
should be checked frequently, and im-
mediately if you notice even the slight-
est loss in braking efficiency.
Consult your approved dealer at
once if you notice an abnormal or
repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels.
Topping up
After any operation on the hydraulic cir-
cuit, a specialist must replace the fluid.
Only use fluids approved by our
Technical Department (and taken from
a sealed container).
Replacement intervals
Refer to the Maintenance Document for
your vehicle.
Level 2
It is normal for the level to drop as
the linings become worn, but it should
never drop below the “MIN” warning
line.
If you wish to check the disc wear your-
self, you should obtain the document
explaining the checking procedure from
our network or from the manufacturer’s
website.
LEVELS (2/2)
When working in the engine
compartment, certain parts
may be hot. In addition,
the engine cooling fan can
come on at any moment.
Risk of burns or serious injury.

4.6
The secondary battery is a 12 V battery:
this supplies the energy required to op-
erate vehicle equipment (lights, wind-
screen wipers, audio system, etc) and
certain safety systems, such as ABS.
You should not open it or add any
fluid.
SECONDARY 12 V BATTERY (1/2)
1
When working in the engine
compartment, certain parts
may be hot. In addition,
the engine cooling fan can
come on at any moment.
Risk of burns or serious injury.
Do not do any work under
the bonnet when the vehicle
is charging or when the igni-
tion is switched on.
For your own safety and for
the proper operation of the
vehicle’s electrical equip-
ment (lights, windscreen
wipers, ABS, etc.), any interven-
tion on the secondary 12 V battery
(removal, disconnection, etc.) must
categorically be performed by a
specialist professional.
Risk of serious burns or electric
shocks.
Respect categorically the replace-
ment intervals (without exceeding
them) as stated in the maintenance
document.
The battery is a specific type.
Please ensure it is replaced with the
same type.
Contact an Authorised Dealer.
Maintenance/replacementThe charge status of the 12 volt bat-
tery 1 can decrease, especially if you
use your vehicle:
– when the outside temperature drops;
– after extended use of energy-con- suming devices with the engine
switched off.

4.7
SECONDARY 12 V BATTERY (2/2)Breakdown recovery
To avoid damaging your vehicle, do
not recharge the secondary 12 V
battery using:
– an external battery charger;
– a battery from another vehicle.
Please contact an Authorised
Dealer.
Do not disconnect the sec-
ondary 12 V battery.
Risk of serious burns or
electric shocks.
Do not use your electric vehicle to
restart the 12 volt battery in another
vehicle. The 12 volt electric power of
an electric vehicle is not enough to
perform such an operation.
