to cool the on-board charger and the traction
battery.
Vehicle unused for an extended period
Fully recharge the traction battery every
three months. Follow the domestic charging
procedure.
Before carrying out the charging operation,
check that the accessory battery is not
disconnected or discharged. If it is, refer to
the corresponding section for information on
reconnecting or recharging it.
Precautions
Electric vehicles were developed in accordance
with the guidelines on maximum electromagnetic
fields issued by the International Commission on
Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP - 1998
Guidelines).
Wearers of pacemakers or equivalent
devices should consult a doctor to enquire
about any applicable precautionary measures, or
contact the manufacturer of their implanted
electronic medical device to check that it is
guaranteed to operate in an environment
compliant with the ICNIRP guidelines.
If in doubt
Domestic or accelerated charging: do
not remain inside or near the vehicle, or near
the charging cable or charging unit, even for a
short time.
Fast charging: do not use the system yourself
and avoid approaching public fast charging
points. Leave the area and ask a third party to
recharge the vehicle.
For domestic or accelerated charging
Before charging
Depending on the context:
►  Have a professional check that the
electrical system to be used complies with
applicable standards and is compatible with
the vehicle.
►  Have a professional electrician install
a dedicated domestic power socket or
accelerated charging unit (Wallbox)
compatible with the vehicle.
Use the charging cable supplied with the
vehicle.
(During charging)
Never work under the bonnet:
– Some areas remain very hot, even an hour
after charging ends - risk of burns!
– The fan may start at any time - risk of cuts or
strangulation!

Checking levels
Check all of the following levels regularly in
accordance with the manufacturer's service
schedule. Top them up if required, unless
otherwise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the
corresponding system checked by a dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The fluids must comply with the
manufacturer's requirements and with
the vehicle's engine.
Take care when working under the
bonnet, as certain areas of the engine
may be extremely hot (risk of burns) and the
cooling fan could start at any time (even with
the ignition off).
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or
fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to health and
very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers or onto the ground.
Empty used oil into the containers reserved
for this purpose at a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Engine oil
The level is checked, with the engine
having been switched off for at least 30
minutes and on level ground, using the dipstick.
It is normal to top up the oil level between two
services (or oil changes). It is recommended that
you check the level, and top up if necessary, every
3,000 miles (5,000 km).
In order to maintain the reliability of the
engine and emissions control system,
never use additives in the engine oil.
