.
–

Accelerated charging in mode 3 using an
accelerated charging unit (W

allbox).
–

Superfast charging in mode 4 using a fast
public charger

.
The 400
V traction battery 2 uses Lithium-Ion
technology. It stores and supplies the energy
required for the operation of the electric motor,
air conditioning and heating. Its charge level is
represented by an indicator and a reserve power
warning lamp on the instrument panel.
The 12
V accessory battery 3 powers the
vehicle’s conventional electrical system. It is
recharged automatically by the traction battery
via the on-board charger.
The heat pump
4 provides passenger
compartment heating and regulates traction
battery and on-board charger cooling.
The on-board charger 5 manages the domestic
charging
(mode 2) and accelerated charging
(mode 3) of the traction battery as well as the
recharging of the 12
V accessory battery.
The electric motor
6 provides propulsion in
accordance with the selected driving mode and
driving conditions. It recovers energy during
vehicle braking and deceleration
phases.

V

iewing the state of charge and range of the
vehicle.
Installation procedure
► Download the MyCitroën App application
from the appropriate online store for your
smartphone.

36
Access
It is not possible to lock the vehicle if the
electronic key is left inside the vehicle.
Deadlocking
Deadlocking renders the interior door
controls inoperative. It also deactivates
the central locking button.
The horn remains operational.
Never leave anyone inside the vehicle
when it is deadlocked.


► Gently press the driver's door handle to lock
the vehicle.
►

Press it again within 3
seconds to deadlock
the vehicle (confirmed by the temporary lighting
of the direction indicators).
A double audible signal indicates that the vehicle
is not deadlocked.
Advice
If one of the doors or the boot is still open
or if the electronic key for the Keyless
Entry and Start

system has been left inside
the vehicle, central locking will not take place.
If the vehicle is unlocked but the doors or
tailgate are not subsequently opened, the
vehicle will automatically lock itself again after
about 30
seconds. If fitted to the vehicle, the
alarm is automatically reactivated (if
previously activated).
Automatic folding/unfolding of the door mirrors is configured in the touch screen.
For more information on Mirrors, refer to the
corresponding section.
As a safety measure, never leave the vehicle, even for a short time, without
taking the Keyless Entry and Start system’s
electronic key with you.
Be aware of the risk of theft of the vehicle if
the key is present in one of the defined areas
while the vehicle is unlocked.
In order to preserve the battery in the
electronic key and the vehicle's battery:
–

The unlocking
on approach function
(zone
C) automatically switches to hibernation
mode after several days (approximately one
week) without being used. To unlock the
vehicle, use the remote control or press on
one of the door handles. The next time the
vehicle is started, the automatic unlocking
and locking functions will be reactivated.
–

If the welcome lighting is triggered
several times in succession without the
vehicle subsequently being started, it will be
deactivated.
–

All "hands-free" functions switch to
hibernation mode after 21 days without being
used.

To restore these functions, unlock the
vehicle using the remote control and start the
engine.
Electrical interference
The electronic key may not work if it is
close to an electronic device (e.g.
mobile
telephone (switched on or on standby), laptop
computer, strong magnetic fields). If this
occurs, move the electronic key away from
the electronic device.
Central locking



Manual
► Press this button to lock/unlock the vehicle
(doors and boot) from inside the passenger
compartment.

Ease of use and comfort
Heated windscreen

In cold weather, this function heats the entire
windscreen and complements the Automatic
Visibility programme to speed up the evacuation
of elements that interfere with visibility (e.g. dew,
mist, frost, snow), located on either side of the
windscreen.
It can be used both before setting off and while
driving.
Switching on/off



► With the engine running, press this button to
activate/deactivate the function (confirmed by an
indicator lamp).
The period of operation depends on the outside
temperature. The function switches off automatically to
prevent excessive power consumption.
Rear screen
demisting/defrosting
This demisting/de-icing only works with the
engine running.
It also demists/de-ices the door mirrors.
► Press this button to activate/deactivate
the function (confirmed by the indicator
lamp coming on/switching off).
The function can be activated whatever the outside temperature may be.
The period of operation depends on the outside
temperature.
Demisting/defrosting therefore switches
off automatically to prevent an excessive
consumption of electrical current.
Temperature pre-conditioning (Electric)
This function allows you to programme the
temperature in the passenger compartment to
reach a pre-defined, non-modifiable temperature
(approx. 21°C) before you enter the vehicle, on
the days and at the times of your choice.
This function is available when the vehicle is
connected or not connected.
