Overview
Safety precautions -
Electric vehicles
An electric vehicle has two types of electrical
circuit:
–
vehicle traction provided by a 48 V battery
module.
–
power supply for the on-board circuit
(instrument panel, lights, ventilation/heating,
USB socket, etc.), provided by a 12
V battery

.
Precautions relating to the 48 V electrical
circuit
The components and cables which make
up the traction electrical circuit are
marked with this symbol.
The electric vehicle's charging system may become hot during use and after the
ignition is switched off.
All work on or modifications to the vehicle’s
electrical system (traction battery, cables and
other components visible from the interior or
exterior) is strictly prohibited - risk of severe
burns or electric shock (short-circuit)!
If required, call a dealer or qualified
workshop.
Precautions relating to the electrical
installation
Before any connection is made, check
that the electrical installation to be used
complies with applicable standards and is
compatible with the vehicle.
In case of doubt, contact a professional
installer.
Precautions related to vehicle cleaning
Before cleaning the vehicle, check that
the windows and doors are properly
closed.
Do not wash the vehicle while the traction
battery is being charged.
Precautions in the event of a breakdown
In the event of a complete loss of power, the
vehicle is no longer driven by the electric motor.
Quickly move the vehicle to a safe place in
accordance with all roadside safety regulations.
Immobilise the vehicle, activate the hazard
warning lamps, put on the high visibility safety
vest, leave the vehicle and find a safe place.
Call a dealer or qualified workshop as soon as
possible.
Precautions related to road accidents
In the event of an accident or impact
to the vehicle's underbody
In situations like these, the electrical circuit or
traction battery may be seriously damaged.
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Apply the parking brake and switch off the
ignition.
Call a dealer or qualified workshop as soon
as possible.
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 explosion!
You must immediately contact the emergency
services, informing them that the incident
involves an electric vehicle.

CARGO version

The CARGO version is an electric mobility
solution for professional use.
The passenger seat is replaced by a modular
load space bounded by:
–
a fixed vertical partition, separating the driver
and the entire load.
–
an upper movable shelf, leaving the right door
mirror visible.
The loading (e.g. mail, parcels, tools) is always
accessible from the outside as well as from the
inside by raising the upper movable shelf.
An additional closed storage compartment (e.g.
smartphone, pens, glasses) is located at the
back of the upper movable shelf.

Eco-driving
Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices
that enable you to optimise your vehicle's
consumption of electrical energy.
Optimising driving range
How much electrical energy your vehicle
consumes depends on your speed, driving style,
vehicle load and route.
Apply pressure gradually to the accelerator pedal
and maintain safe distances between vehicles.
Anticipate the need to slow down well in advance
and, where possible, brake smoothly or slow
the vehicle using engine braking with the
regenerative braking function.
Control the use of electrical equipment
Before setting off, if the passenger compartment
is too warm, cool it down by opening the
windows in order to reduce the use of the
ventilation system.
In the event of a frost, remove the ice from all
glass surfaces using a scraper in order to reduce
the use of the heating/demister function.
Comply with the servicing instructions
Check tyre pressures regularly when the tyres
are cold, referring to the label affixed to the base
of the passenger seat.
Perform this check particularly at each change of
season and after the vehicle has been stationary
for a long period.If the tyres need to be replaced, you must fit
tyres which are identical to the original ones
(size, load/speed rating, type and structure).
Ensure the vehicle is serviced regularly and
observe the schedule of service checks indicated
in the Manufacturer's service schedule.

Warning and indicator
lamps
Displayed as warning lamps on the sides of the
instrument panel and symbols on the display
screen, the indicator lamps inform you of a fault
or when a system is in operation.
Certain lamps may come on in one of two
modes: fixed (continuous) or flashing.
An active lamp may be accompanied by an
audible signal.
When the ignition is switched on
The red or orange warning lamps come on for a
few seconds. These warning lamps should go off
as soon as the motor is switched on.
If a lamp remains lit
If a warning lamp remains lit (red or orange), this
indicates the presence of a fault which needs
further investigation.
For more information on a system or a function,
refer to the corresponding section.
