The engine brake should
under no circumstances be
used as a substitute for the
brake pedal.
NoiseElectric vehicles are particularly quiet.
You will not yet necessarily be used to
it, and neither will other road users. It
is difficult for them to hear the vehicle
when it is moving.
We would therefore recommend that
you are aware of the horn and make
use of it, especially when driving in a
built-up area or when manoeuvring.
Please refer to the information on the
“Horn” in Section 1.
As the motor is silent, you will hear
noises that you are not used to hearing
(aerodynamic noises, tyre noise, etc.)
When charging, the vehicle may emit
noises (fan, relays, etc).
Your electric vehicle is
silent, so when you get out,
always check that the gear
selector is on P, engage the
handbrake and switch off the igni -
tion.
riSK OF SeriOUS iNJUr Y
electric vehicle: introduction (5/5)
Driving
As with a car with an automatic gear -
box, you will have to get used to not
using your left foot, and not using this
foot to brake.
When driving, if you lift your foot off the
accelerator pedal or depress the brake
pedal, the motor generates electrical
current during deceleration, and this
energy is used to brake the vehicle and
recharge the traction battery. Please
refer to the information on the “Charge
meter” in Section 2.
Special conditions
After a maximum charge of the battery
and during the first few miles of using
the vehicle, the engine brake will be
temporarily reduced. Please adapt your
driving style appropriately. Bad weather, flooded roads:Do not drive through
floods if the depth of water
is above the lower edge of
the wheel rims.
Obstructions to the driver
On the driver ’s side, only
use mats suitable for the
vehicle, attached with the
pre-fitted components, and check
the fitting regularly. Do not lay one
mat on top of another.
t here is a risk of wedging the
pedals

Important recommendations
imPOrt ANt recOmmeNDA tiONS
Please read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow these instructions may lead to a risk of fire, serious injury
or electric shock which may present a risk to life.
in the event of an accident or impact
In the event of an accident or an impact to the underside of the vehicle (e.g.: striking a post, raised kerb or other street furni-
ture), this may damage the electric circuit or the traction battery.
Have the vehicle checked by an authorised dealer.
Never touch the “400 volt” components or orange cables which are e\
xposed and visible inside or outside the vehicle.
In the event of serious damage to the traction battery, leaks may occur:
– never touch the liquids (fluids, etc.) coming from the traction battery;
– in the event of contact with the body, wash the affected area with plenty of water and consult a doctor as soon as possibl\
e.
In the event of an impact, even slight, against the charging flap and/or valve, have them checked by an authorised dealer as
soon as possible.
in the event of fire
In the event of fire, make everyone evacuate the vehicle immediately and contact the emergency services, informing them that
this is an electric vehicle.
Only use extinguishing agents ABC or BC that are permitted for use with electrical fires. Do not use water or other extinguish -
ing agents.
In the event of damage to the electrical circuit, please call an authori\
sed dealer.
All towing operations
Please refer to the information on “Towing, breakdowns” in Section 5.
Washing the vehicle
Never wash the engine compartment, the charging connection or the tracti\
on battery with a high-pressure jet.
This risks damaging the electric circuit.
Never wash the vehicle while it is charging.

important recommendations for charging your vehiclePlease read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow these instructions may lead to a risk of fire, serious injury
or electric shocks which could result in death.
installation for using a standard charging cord
Have a special wall socket installed by a qualified professional.
installation for using an occasional charging cord
Have a qualified professional check that each socket you intend to use with the occasional charging cord complies with the
standards and regulations in force in your country, especially that they have:
– a Type A residual differential current of 30 mA;
– a device to protect against overvoltage (16A fuse or circuit breaker for the socket used);
– protection against overvoltage relating to lightning in exposed areas.
You are recommended to test the residual differential current device every month.
You are recommended to check regularly the domestic power supply as well as the special wall socket. In the event of dete-
rioration (corrosion, browning, etc.), do not use it.
Please read the instructions that come with the occasional charging cord carefully to learn about usage precautions and how
to use the cord.
charging
Do not do anything to the vehicle during charging (washing, working in \
the engine compartment, etc.).
In the event of the presence of water, signs of corrosion or foreign bodies in the charging cord connector or in the vehicle charg-
ing socket, do not charge the vehicle. Fire hazard.
Do not attempt to touch the cord contacts, the domestic socket or the ve\
hicle charging socket, or introduce objects into them.
Never plug the charging cord into a multiple socket or an extension lead\
.
Do not remove or change the vehicle charging socket or the charging cord\
. Fire hazard.
Do not modify the installation during charging.
In the event of an impact, even slight, against the charging socket or valve, have them checked by an authorised dealer as
soon as possible.
Take care of the cord: do not tread on it, immerse it in water or pull on it or let anything knock against it. Check regularly that
the charging cord is in good condition. In the event of deterioration (\
corrosion, browning, cuts, etc.), do not use it.

charging connection 2
The vehicle has a charging connection
located at the front of the vehicle. Avoid charging and parking your ve
-
hicle in extreme temperatures (hot or
cold).
When the vehicle is parked in tempera-
tures lower than around -25°C, the bat-
tery cannot be charged.
Favour charging the traction battery
after driving and/or in mild tempera -
tures. Otherwise, charging may take a
longer period of time or even become
impossible.
2
In the absence of any protection
against overvoltage, you are recom-
mended not to charge the vehicle in
stormy weather (lightning, etc.).
recommendations
– In extreme heat, favour parking and
recharging the vehicle in a shaded/
covered location.
– Charging can be performed in the
rain or snow.
Note:
If in a snowy environment, remove
snow from the vehicle charging area
before plugging in or disconnecting.
Snow in the socket may block the in -
sertion of the charging cord plug.

in the handbook (removing the cap
from a bottle, etc.).
Advice
Avoid leaving the remote control in
hot, cold or humid areas.
Driver’s responsibility
Never leave your vehicle
with the card inside the
vehicle and never leave a
child (or a pet) unsupervised. With
the card in the reader, it would be
possible to start the engine or oper-
ate electrical equipment such as the
electric windows and there is a risk
that part of their body may become
trapped (neck, arm, hand, etc.).
Risk of serious injury.

Interference by factors in the immediate
vicinity (external installations or the use
of equipment operating on the same
frequency as the remote control) may
affect the operation of the remote con-
trol.
Note: if a door is not opened within
approximately 2 seconds of the door
being unlocked by remote control, the
doors will lock again automatically.
KeY , rADiO FreQUeNcY remOte cONtrOl: general information (2/2)
For replacement, or if you
require an additional remote
control.
You must only contact an approved
Dealer.
– To replace a remote control, the
vehicle must be taken to an ap -
proved Dealer as both the vehi -
cle and the remote control are
needed to initialise the system.
– Depending on the vehicle, you
have the option of using up to
four remote controls.
remote control unit failure
Make sure that the correct battery
type is being used, and that the
battery is in good condition and in -
serted correctly. These batteries
have a service life of approximately
two years.
To learn how to change the battery,
please refer to the information on
the “Key, radio frequency remote
control: Batteries” in Section 5.
