F Check that the charging lamp in the instrument panel and 
the green CHARGING  lamp of 
the control unit are on fixed.
The start of charging may be 
accompanied by the noise of a fan 
running. This noise is per fectly normal.
The charge may be interrupted at any 
time by withdrawing the charging plug.
If this is not the case, charging has not 
started; repeat the procedure, ensuring that all 
connections are correct.
The state of charge indicator for the main 
battery is displayed in the instrument panel and 
the number of bars illuminated increases as the 
battery is charged.
If exceptionally you have to interrupt the 
charge by disconnecting the charging 
cable from the power point, it is 
essential to first press the Manual Stop  
button on the control unit.Control unit
There are four indicator lamps:
-  S TOP: on red.
 I
t indicates that charging has been 
interrupted by a press on the Manual Stop 
button. This action is essential before 
disconnecting the charging cable from the 
power point when charging.
-

After removing the charging plug from 
the vehicle's socket, do not leave 
the cable connected to the electric 
power point (risk of short circuit or 
electrocution if there is contact or 
immersion in water). After charging, close the charging 
socket cover and flap.
Take care to avoid the ingress of water 
or dust to the socket and its cover 
or the charging plug (risk of fire or 
electrocution).
In the event of an accident or an impact 
to the underbody of the vehicle (contact 
with a raised kerb, a bollard, street 
furniture, etc.), the electric circuit or the 
main battery may be damaged. Have 
your vehicle checked by a CITROËN 
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Never touch the 300 V components, nor 
the orange cables.
Vehicle out of use for a long 
period
When your vehicle is going to be out 
of use for a long period, charge the 
main battery completely every three 
months (following the normal charging 
procedure).
Before charging, check that the 
12  V battery is not disconnected or 
discharged. If this is the case, refer 
to the "12 V battery" section for 
reconnecting or charging the battery.
In the event of serious damage to 
the main battery, never touch liquids 
coming from this component.
In the event of contact with your body, 
wash abundantly with water and contact 
a doctor without delay.
To optimise the ser vice life of the 
main battery, recharge it completely 
ever y
 2 weeks. 
For a complete charge, follow the 
normal charging procedure (domestic 
power point) without interruption, until it 
stops automatically (charging warning 
lamp goes off in the instrument panel).
In addition, ever y 3 months, carr y 
out
 
this complete recharge of the 
main batter y from a state of charge 
of 2 bars or less .

F Check that the charging warning lamp in the instrument panel is 
on fixed.
Fast charging stops automatically 
when the main battery is around 80% 
charged. It is possible to attain a charge 
of 100% by restarting the procedure. 
However, the time taken by this 
additional charge will be relatively long, 
as the charging rate is reduced. During fast charging, the vehicle's air 
conditioning may start automatically, 
if needed to cool the main battery. It is 
therefore per fectly normal to hear the 
noise of a fan running from outside the 
vehicle and to see a puddle of water 
form under the vehicle. As a safety measure, the motor will 
not start when the charging cable is 
connected to the vehicle's socket.
Also, any attempt to start the motor 
interrupts the charging procedure. It 
will then be necessary to disconnect 
and reconnect the charging cable to 
the vehicle's socket, then to restart the 
charging following the instructions for 
using the charging station.If the exterior temperature is 
below
  0   °C, the charging time may be 
longer.
If the exterior temperature is 
below
  -25   °C, charging may not be 
possible.
If this is not the case, charging has not started; 
check the operating instructions for the 
charging station. The charging warning lamp in the instrument 
panel goes off when charging is complete.
F
 
D
 isconnect the charging cable following 
the instructions for the charging terminal.
F
 
C
 lose the charging socket cover and 
the
  flap.
After charging, close the charging 
socket cover and flap.
Take care to avoid the ingress of water 
or dust into the socket, under its cover 
or into the charging plug. Risk of fire or 
electrocution.
Vehicle out of use for a long 
period
When your vehicle is going to be out 
of use for a long period, charge the 
main battery completely every three 
months (following the normal charging 
procedure).
Before charging, check that the 
12   V battery is not disconnected or 
discharged. If this is the case, refer 
to the "12 V battery" section for 
reconnecting or charging the battery.
