Other information
Traction battery
Do not make any modification to the
drive train, this could cause a risk of
malfunction.
300 Volt electrical system
The 300 Volt electrical system is identified by
o range coloured cables, and its components
are marked with this symbol:
Please note the following point: the fitting
of electrical equipment or accessories
which are not listed by the manufacturer
may result in the failure of your vehicle's
electronic system. We ask you to take
note of this consideration and to contact
a franchised dealer to see the equipment
and accessories listed for the vehicle. The drive train of the electric vehicle is
powered at around 300
Volts. This system
can become hot while the ignition is on
and can remain so after switching off.
Obser ve the warning messages on the
labels present in the vehicle. Any work on
or modification to the vehicle's electrical
system (components, cables, connectors,
traction battery) is strictly prohibited
because of the risk of serious burns or
electric shock leading to death.
In the event of a problem, always
contact a franchised dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Driving in a flood
It is strongly recommended not to drive in
flooded areas. In all cases, the maximum
depth of water allowed is 150
mm (lower
edge of the wheel rims) and the maximum
speed is 6
mph (10 km/h). Ensure that
these recommendations are observed
otherwise serious damage to the electrical
system is possible. If it has not been
possible to follow these recommendations,
contact a franchised dealer or a qualified
workshop to check the condition of your
vehicle's electrical systems.
This battery stores the energy needed for the
correct operation of the motor of your electric
vehicle, the air conditioning and the heating.
As with all batteries, it discharges when used
and so must be recharged regularly. You do not
have to wait until the battery reaches reser ve
status to charge your traction battery.
Charging the traction battery

F Arrange the two flaps and close the hatch.
Load space layout
12 volt socket (120 W max)
The connection of an electrical device
not approved by PEUGEOT, such as a
USB charger, may adversely affect the
operation of vehicle electrical systems,
causing faults such as poor radio
reception or inter ference with displays in
the screens.
It is advisable to limit its use to avoid
discharging the battery.
Stowing rings
As a safety precaution in case of sharp
braking, you are advised to secure the
load by attaching it firmly using the
stowing rings and to place heavy objects
as far for wards towards the cab as
possible.
Use the stowing rings on the rear floor to
secure your loads.
Tr i m
Load stops
Your vehicle can have a wide range of load
stops to effectively protect the driver and
front passenger(s) while maintaining loading
modularity.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer for the
different models of load restraint
accessories.
The interior parts of the sides are fitted with
load protection trims.

Anti-lock braking system
(ABS/EBFD)
The ABS and EBFD (electronic brake force
distribution) systems improve the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking,
in particular on poor or slippery sur faces.
The ABS prevents the wheels from locking,
and the EBFD provides control of the braking
pressure wheel by wheel.
The anti-lock braking system comes into
operation automatically when there is a risk
of wheel lock. It does not reduce the braking
distance.
On very slippery sur faces (ice, oil, etc.), the
ABS may increase the braking distance. When
braking in an emergency, do not hesitate to
press the brake pedal firmly without releasing
the pressure, even on a slippery sur face; you
will then be able to continue to manoeuvre the
vehicle to avoid an obstacle.If this warning lamp comes on
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the screen, it
indicates a malfunction of the ABS
which could result in a loss of control
of the vehicle when braking.
If this warning lamp comes on
together with the brake and STOP
warning lamps, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message in the
screen, it indicates a malfunction of
the electronic brake force distribution,
which could result in a loss of control
of the vehicle when braking.
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In both cases, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Emergency braking
assistance (EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables you to
reach the optimum braking pressure more
quickly.
It is triggered in relation to the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed.
This alters the resistance of the brake pedal
under your foot.To maintain operation of the emergency
braking assistance system, press very
firmly on the brake pedal, maintaining this
pressure.
Normal operation of the ABS may be felt
by slight vibration of the brake pedal.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
ensure that these are approved by
P E U G E O T.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
and electronic stability
c ont rol (ESC)
These systems are associated with and
complementary to the ABS.
The ASR system is very useful for maintaining
optimum traction and avoiding loss of control of
the vehicle during acceleration.
This system optimises traction to prevent the
wheels from skidding by acting on the brakes
of the driving wheels and on the engine. It also
improves the directional stability of the vehicle on
acceleration.
With the ESC system, maintain the direction
without attempting to steer in the opposite
direction.

Operation
The warning lamp flashes when the
ASR or ESC is triggered.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (moving a vehicle that
is bogged down in mud, stuck in snow, on loose
soil, etc.), it may prove useful to deactivate the
ASR and ESC systems, so that the wheels can
spin and regain grip.F

P
ress the button or turn the
knob to the ESC OFF position
(depending on version).
The LED lights up: the ASR and ESC systems
are deactivated.
They reactivate again:
-

a
utomatically above 31 mph (50 km/h),
If there is a difference between the path followed
by the vehicle and that required by the driver, the
ESC system automatically acts on the brake of
one or more wheels and on the engine to return
the vehicle to the required path.
- manually when you press the button again or turn the knob
to this position (depending on
ve r s i o n).
Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction of the
systems, the warning lamp and the
LED come on, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message on the
screen.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
The warning lamp may also come on if the
tyres are under-inflated. Check the pressure of
each tyre.
Although the ASR /ESC systems help to
improve safety in normal driving, they
should not encourage the driver to take
extra risks or drive at high speed.
The correct operation of these systems
is ensured if the recommendations of the
manufacturer regarding the wheels (tyres
and rims), the braking components, the
electronic components and the fitting and
repair procedures are observed.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Grip control
Special patented traction control system which
improves traction on snow, mud and sand.
This system, the operation of which has been
optimised for each situation, allows you to
manoeuvre in most conditions of poor grip
(encountered during passenger car use).
The accelerator pedal should be pressed
sufficiently to allow the system to use the power
of the engine. Operation at high engine speeds
is completely normal.
A five-position selector knob allows you to
choose the setting best suited to the driving
conditions encountered.
An indicator lamp associated with each mode
comes on to confirm your choice.
