wheels against the kerb and/or place a
chock behind one of the wheels, apply the
parking brake and switch off the ignition.
Drive selector

The drive selector has 3 buttons:
D. Forward (Drive)
N. Neutral
R. Reverse (Rear)
When the ignition is switched on, the instrument
panel lights up.
When the motor is switched on, N mode is
displayed on the instrument panel, along with the
READY warning lamp.
►
To move to

D or R mode, depress the brake
pedal and then press the desired button.
By default, this lamp flashes.
Do not depress the accelerator pedal
when switching to D or R mode.
Engine braking and energy recovery
The vehicle is fitted with an energy
recovery system which operates during
deceleration: regenerative braking.
This system of engine braking consists of
recovering part of the energy generated
during deceleration and feeding it back to
the traction battery in order to improve the
vehicle's driving range.
When the traction battery is fully charged
and during the first few miles/kilometres of
a journey, the regenerative braking does not
operate.
Adapt your driving style and use the brake
pedal.
Engine braking and brake pedal
The engine braking can never replace
the brake pedal.
When driving downhill, it is essential not to
exceed the maximum speed of the vehicle
and to voluntarily limit its speed by using the
brake pedal.
In order to protect the drive chain, a
slight decrease in performance may be
observed at low temperatures or during
prolonged use of maximum power.
Starting/Stopping the

Practical information
Charging the traction
battery
Principle
The traction battery stores the energy needed
to operate the electric motor and the vehicle's
electrical cabin components. 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 traction battery's driving range varies
according to the conditions of use: speed, driving
style, heating, load carried and road surface.
The traction battery's driving range can also
vary depending on whether the age of its
components.
Like any equipment with a lithium-ion battery,
the vehicle incorporates a protection mode to
optimise the durability of its traction battery.
Depending on the charge level and temperature
of its traction battery, power may be limited to
protect the battery cells.
This protection mode affects the maximum
speed of the vehicle at low charge level (< 20%)
and at low or high battery temperature (<
+5°C
or > +45°C).
The relief of the road, such as climbing a steep
slope, also affects the maximum speed that the
vehicle can reach.
The charging cable is permanently attached to
the vehicle. It is stored in its housing located
inside the passenger door frame under the door
latch.
The single-phase AC domestic mains power socket must be standard type E/F
16
A; load is limited to 8 A.
To charge the battery, unfurl the charging cable
fully before connecting it to the domestic power
supply

.
For a full charge, follow the charging procedure
until it stops automatically.
To interrupt the charging process at any time,
disconnect the charging cable, unlock the
passenger door and store the cable in its
housing.
Charging progress is permanently displayed on
the instrument panel.
Charging progress can also be checked
via the MyCitroën App application in
combination with the connector unit (sold
separately).
For safety reasons, the motor will not
start while the charging cable is
connected.
Fully charge the traction battery at least once
a month.
Charging temperature
For vehicles manufactured before
2020/11/23, the charging is possible at
temperatures between 0°C and +50°C.
From this date, the charging is possible at
temperatures between -5°C and +50°C.
Parking in cold wheather
When the outside temperature drops
below +5°C:
–
Park the vehicle in an enclosed area.
–Maintain a charge level of the traction
battery above 50%.
Vehicle immobilised for a long period
(more than 3 weeks)
Park the vehicle in a location that is protected
from the elements and where the temperature
is between 0°C and +40°C (exposure to
extreme temperatures can damage the
traction battery).
The charging level in the traction battery must
be around 50%.
Disconnect the connector unit.
Remove the F7-50
A fuse.
Disconnect the 12 V battery.
