7Charging the traction
battery (Electric)
To charge, connect the vehicle to a domestic
charging unit or a fast public charger (superfast
charging).
For a full charge, follow the desired charging
procedure without interrupting it, until it ends
automatically.
To stop charging at any time, press the locking
button on the remote control for 5 seconds
and remove the charging nozzle. For superfast
charging, also refer to the fast public charger.
The display of information linked to the charging
is integrated into the rear view mirror. For more
information on the Display integrated into the
rear view mirror , refer to the corresponding
section.
As a safety measure, the engine will not start if the charging cable is plugged into
the vehicle's charging connector.
Cooling the traction battery
The cooling fan in the engine
compartment comes on during charging to
cool the on-board charger and the traction
battery.
Balancing the traction battery voltage
After carrying out a full charge (100%)
at least once per week, we recommend not
using the vehicle for about 4 hours.
This time allows the voltage to balance across
all of the traction battery's cells (ensuring a
level voltage across all of its cells).
This process helps keep the traction battery in
good condition and aids in the calculation of
its charging level.
Completely discharged traction
battery
T
o preserve the lifespan of the traction battery
and avoid damaging it, make sure that it is
never completely discharged (0%).
When the charge level drops to 15%, the
message "LOW POWER MODE" appears
on the display integrated into the rear view
mirror. If this message appears while driving,
avoid heavy acceleration and charge the
vehicle as soon as possible.
Long-term parking
Before parking the vehicle for an
extended period, carry out a full charge of the
traction battery.
Park the vehicle in a place where the
temperature will be between 0°C and 45°C
(parking in a place which will experience
extreme temperatures can damage the
traction battery).
Disconnect the cable from the (-) terminal of
the 12
V accessory battery.
Check the level of charge in the traction
battery periodically and charge it if necessary.
When parking the vehicle for more than one
month, keep the level of charge above 50%.
When parking the vehicle for a very long
period, charge the vehicle every 2 months.
Do not leave the charging cable connected.
Lack of use of the traction battery temporarily
affects its performance. At the end of the
parking period, carry out several charge/
discharge cycles to restore the normal
operation of the traction battery.
Precautions
Our electric vehicles have been developed in
accordance with the recommendations on the
maximum limits for electromagnetic fields, as
issued by the International Commission on Non-
Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP - 1998
Guidelines).
Wearers of pacemakers or equivalent
devices
Ask your doctor about what precautions you should take, or ask the manufacturer
of your implanted electro-medical device about
whether its operation is guaranteed in an
environment which complies with the ICNIRP
recommendations.
If in doubt

7Freezing of the AdBlue®
AdBlue® freezes at temperatures below
around -11°C.
The SCR system includes a heater for the
AdBlue
® tank, allowing you to continue driving
in very cold conditions.
Supply of AdBlue®
It is recommended that the AdBlue® be topped
up as soon as the first alert is issued indicating
that the reserve level has been reached.
For the correct operation of the SCR
system:
–

Use
only AdBlue
® fluid that meets the ISO
22241 standard.
–

Never

transfer AdBlue
® to another container
as it would lose its purity.
–

Never dilute

AdBlue
® with water.
It is possible to obtain AdBlue
® from a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
You can also visit a service station equipped with AdBlue® pumps specially
designed for passenger vehicles.
Recommendations on storage
AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C and deteriorates
above +25°C. Containers should be stored in a
cool area and protected from direct sunlight.
Under these conditions, the fluid can be kept for
at least a year.
If the fluid has frozen, it can be used once it has
completely thawed out at room temperature.
Never store AdBlue® containers in your
vehicle.
Precautions for use
AdBlue® is a urea-based solution. This fluid is
non-flammable, colourless and odourless (when
kept in a cool place).
In the event of contact with the skin, wash the
affected area with soap and running water. In the
event of contact with the eyes, immediately rinse
the eyes with large amounts of water or with an
eye wash solution for at least 15 minutes. Seek
medical attention if you feel a persistent burning
sensation or irritation.
If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth
with clean water and then drink plenty of water.
In certain conditions (high temperature, for
example), the risk of release of ammonia cannot
be excluded: do not inhale the fluid. Ammonia
vapours have an irritant effect on mucous
membranes (eyes, nose and throat).
Store AdBlue® out of the reach of
children, in its original container.
Procedure
Before starting the top-up procedure, ensure that
the vehicle is parked on a flat and level surface.
In wintry conditions, ensure that the temperature
of the vehicle is above -11 °C. Otherwise the
AdBlue
® may be frozen and so cannot be poured
into its tank. Park the vehicle in a warmer area
for a few hours to allow the top-up to be carried
out.
Never put the AdBlue® into the Diesel
fuel tank.
If any AdBlue® is splashed, or if there are
any spillages on the bodywork, rinse
immediately with cold water or wipe with a
damp cloth.
If the fluid has crystallised, clean it off using a
sponge and hot water.
Important: in the event of a top-up after
an AdBlue breakdown, you must wait
about 5
minutes before switching on the
ignition, without opening the driver's door,
unlocking the vehicle or bringing the
electronic key into the passenger
compartment.
Switch on the ignition, then wait for 10
seconds before starting the engine.
►

Switch off the ignition and remove the key
from the switch to switch off the engine.

11 6
Practical information

► Turn the blue cap of the AdBlue® tank a 6th of
a turn anti-clockwise and remove it.
Filling up
► With a container of AdBlue®: after checking
the expiry date, read the instructions on the
label carefully before pouring the contents of the
container

into the vehicle's AdBlue tank.
►

With an


AdBlue® pump: introduce the nozzle
and fill the tank until the nozzle automatically
cuts out.
In order not to overfill the AdBlue® tank:
–
Add between 10 and 13 litres using
AdBlue® containers.
–
Stop after the nozzle’ s first automatic cut-
out, if you are refilling at a service station.
The system only registers AdBlue
® top-ups of
5

litres or more.
If the AdBlue® tank is completely empty
– which is confirmed by the message
"Top up

AdBlue: Starting impossible" – it is
essential to add at least 5 litres.
After refilling
► Refit the blue cap to the tank filler and turn it
clockwise as far as it will go (one sixth of a turn).
►

Close the fuel filler flap.
Do not dispose of AdBlue® containers in
the household waste.
Place them in a container reserved for this
purpose or take them back to where you
bought them.
Advice on care and maintenance
General recommendations
Observe the following recommendations to avoid
damaging the vehicle.
Exterior
Never use a high-pressure jet wash in
the engine compartment - risk of
damaging the electrical components!
Do not wash the vehicle in bright sunshine or
extremely cold conditions.
When washing the vehicle in an
automatic roller-brush car wash, be sure
to lock the doors and, depending on version,
move the electronic key away and deactivate
the "hands-free" function (Hands-Free
Tailgate Access).
When using a pressure washer, keep the jet
nozzle at a minimum distance of 30 cm from
the vehicle (particularly when cleaning areas
containing chipped paint, sensors or seals).
Promptly clean up any stains containing
chemicals liable to damage the vehicle's
paintwork (including tree resin, bird
droppings, insect secretions, pollen and tar).
Depending on the environment, clean the
vehicle frequently to remove salty deposits
(in coastal areas), soot (in industrial areas)
and mud/salts (in wet or cold areas). These
substances can be highly corrosive.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop for advice on removing stubborn
stains requiring special products (such as tar
or insect removers).
Preferably, have paint touch-ups performed
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
