12 VOLT BATTERY (2/2)Connecting a charger to the
accessories socket
Only use a charger that is compatible
with a nominal voltage of 14.4 volts
and a current limited to 5 amps.
With the ignition switched on, plug
the power supply into the accessories
socket 7 located in the storage com-
partment 8. Please consult an authori-
sed dealer.
Recharging the 12 volt
battery
It is difficult to access the 12 volt bat-
tery. It is therefore recommended that
you attach the vehicle plug to a power
source: energy is supplied to both the
12 volt battery and the traction battery
at the same time.
Please refer to the information on
“Electric vehicle: charging” in Section 1.
Do not forget to switch off the ignition
when replacing the traction battery.
Immobilising the vehicle for an
extended period of time
Before immobilisation, you should
make sure that:
– the ignition is switched off;
– the side lights and hazard warning lights are switched off;
– the traction battery is fully charged.
After lengthy immobilisation, it is normal
to find the traction battery charge level
down. In this case, recharge it (see
“Electric vehicle: charging” in Section
1).
Do not use booster cables
to start the vehicle.
Risk of serious injury.

WIPER BLADE
Check the condition of the wiper
blades. How long they last depends
on you:
– clean the blades and the wind-screen regularly with soapy
water;
– do not use them when the wind- screen is dry;
– free them from the windscreen when they have not been used
for a long time.
– In freezing weather, make
sure that the wiper blades
are not stuck by ice (to
avoid the risk of the wiper
motor overheating).
– Keep an eye on the condition of
the blade.
Replace the wiper blades as soon
as they begin to lose efficiency:
approximately once a year.
When changing the blade, when it
has been removed, do not let the
wiper arm fall against the window:
risk of breaking the window.Replacement
With the ignition on and the engine
stopped:
– lift windscreen wiper arm 2 as far as
it will go;
– pivot blade 1 until it is removed from
its hinge.
Refitting
To refit the wiper blade, clip the blade
onto its hinge. Make sure that the blade
is correctly locked in position.
