182
Practical information
For a full charge, follow the desired charging
procedure without pausing it, until it ends
automatically. Charging can be either immediate
or deferred (except fast public charger, mode 4).
You can stop domestic or accelerated charging
at any time by unlocking the vehicle and
removing the nozzle. For superfast charging,
refer to the fast public charger.
For more information on the charging displays
on the Instrument panel and the Touch screen,
refer to the corresponding section.
It is also possible to monitor the charging
progress using the MYPEUGEOT APP
application.
For more information on Remote functions,
refer to the corresponding section.
As a safety measure, the engine will not start if the charging cable is plugged into
the connector on the vehicle. A warning is
displayed on the instrument panel.
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.
Low load / Driving
Driving when the charge level of the
traction battery is too low can lead to the
vehicle breaking down and can lead to
accidents or serious injuries. ALWAYS make
sure the traction battery has a sufficient
charge level.
Low load / Parking
If the outside temperature is negative,
it is recommended not to park your vehicle
outside for several hours at a low load (less
than 20%).
Vehicle in storage for more than
1 month
In the event of a long period of non-use of
the vehicle (beyond 4
weeks) without the
possibility of charging when restarting, the
self-discharge may make it impossible to
restart if the traction battery charge level
is a low or very low, especially at negative
ambient temperatures. ALWAYS make sure
that the traction battery has a charge between
20% and 40% if you do not plan to use your
vehicle for several weeks.
Do not connect the charging cable.
Always park the vehicle in a place with
temperatures between -10°C and 30°C
(parking in a place with extreme temperatures
can damage the traction battery).
Disconnect the cable from the (+) terminal
of the accessory battery in the engine
compartment.
Connect a 12 V battery charger to the (+)
and (-) terminals of the accessory battery
about every 3 months in order to recharge the
accessory battery and maintain an operating
voltage.
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
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.
Superfast 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.

remaining in the battery.
When the vehicle is being driven, the load
reduction function temporarily deactivates certain
functions, such as the air conditioning and the
heated rear screen.
The deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically as soon as conditions permit.
Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve
traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle
when braking.
Snow chains must be fitted only to the
front wheels. They must never be fitted to
"space-saver" type spare wheels.
Observe the legislation in force in your
country relating to the use of snow
chains and maximum authorised speeds.
Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the
type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:
Original tyre size Link size: (mm) 195/65 R15 9
205/60 R16
205/55 R17
215/65 R16
215/60 R17 Cannot be fitted with
chains
You can also use snow socks.
For more information, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Installation tips
► To fit the snow chains during a journey, stop
the vehicle on a flat surface at the side of the
road.
►

Apply the parking brake and position any
wheel chocks under the wheels to prevent
movement of the vehicle.
►


Fit the snow chains following the instructions
provided by the manufacturer

.
►

Move off gently and drive for a few moments,
without exceeding 31

mph (50 km/h).
►

Stop the vehicle and check that the snow
chains are correctly tightened.
It is strongly recommended that you
practise fitting the snow chains on a level
and dry surface before setting off.
Avoid driving with snow chains on roads that have been cleared of snow to avoid
damaging the vehicle's tyres and the road
surface. If the vehicle is fitted with alloy
wheels, check that no part of the chain or its
fixings is in contact with the wheel rim.
Very cold climate screen
(Depending on country of sale)

Towing device
Depending on version, the vehicle is
fitted with the necessary equipment to
allow a towing device to be installed.
To install a towing device, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Load distribution
►

Distribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest items are as close as possible to the

188
Practical information
axle, and the nose weight approaches the
maximum permitted without exceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus reducing
engine performance. The maximum towable load
must be reduced by 10% per 1,000 metres of
altitude.
Use genuine towing devices and wiring
harnesses approved by PEUGEOT. We
recommend having them fitted by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
If not fitted by a PEUGEOT dealer, they must
still be fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.
Certain driving or manoeuvring aid functions
are automatically deactivated while an
approved towing system is in use.
For more information about driving with a
towing device fitted to a trailer and associated
with the Trailer stability assist, refer to the
corresponding section.
Comply with the maximum authorised
towable weight, as indicated on your
vehicle's registration certificate, on the
manufacturer's label and in the Technical
data section of this guide.
If using accessories attached to the
towing device (e.g. bicycle carriers, tow
boxes):
–

Comply with the maximum authorised nose
weight.
– Do not transport more than 4 conventional
bicycles or 2 electric bicycles.
When loading bicycles onto a bicycle carrier
on a towball, be sure to place the heaviest
bicycles as close as possible to the vehicle.
Observe the legislation in force in the
country where you are driving.
Electric motor
An electric vehicle may be fitted with a
towing device.
It is therefore possible to tow a trailer or
caravan.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or qualified
workshop for more information and to obtain a
suitable towing device.
Overload indicator

The overload indicator is a driving aid and
informs you that the maximum authorised
weight has been exceeded; this may be either
the gross vehicle weight (GVW) or the maximum
authorised weight on either axle (front and rear)
(GAWR).
The indicator does not relieve the user from their responsibility.
Even if you correctly measure the weight
of the vehicle's load, any factor that may
vary this weight (driver/additional passengers
seated or taking on additional fuel) after the
measurement may put the vehicle into the
overload condition.


The load includes the weight of the items stored in the loading area (including any
fittings such as shelves), but also the weight
of all persons on board the vehicle, the
amount of fuel (depending on version) and
various equipment fitted on the vehicle.
For optimal performance, the vehicle must
be parked and loaded on level ground (avoid
the following conditions: parking on a slope or
straddling a pavement).
Attaching a trailer to your vehicle may affect the operation of the system.
