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 perfectly 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

Practical information

100
This type of control unit that has a system for
recognising the type of power point (depending
on country). It detects the power rating of your
domestic power point and is able to support
and select the best current rating to ensure
safe charging:
-
14
A (FAST): if your electrical installation
supports it.
-

8 A
(NORMAL): if your electrical
installation is standard. 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 plug to
continue charging.
The charge lamp in the instrument panel going
off and flashing of the green CHARGING lamp
indicate that charging is complete.

provided. If the 12 V battery is discharged, it is not
possible to charge the main battery.
While charging, do not do anything
under the bonnet, even with the ignition
off, as the cooling fan may start at any
time (risk of injury).
You must wait for at least one hour
after the end of the charging procedure
before doing anything under the bonnet,
as some areas may be extremely hot
(risk of burns).
Practical information

101
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 PEUGEOT
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 .

Using a public charging point for normal charging
Some public charging points include a charging cable.
In this case, use the cable provided.
In Mode 3, regardless of the power of the charging point, charging will be limited to 16 A maximum. For more information on the charging times,
refer to the Motor and main battery section.
Several types of electrical socket may be available for charging your vehicle.
Before starting the charging procedure, use the table below to identify the correct type of socket and use the corresponding charging cable.
Domestic power point "Mode 3 - Type 2" socket "Mode 3 - Type 3" socket
"Mode 2" cable

Practical information

105
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 perfectly 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.

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.
