The vehicle drive system
in an electric vehicle uses
a direct voltage of ap-
proximately 58 volts. This
system can get hot during and after
switching off the ignition.
All interventions or modifications to
the vehicle’s electrical system (com-
ponents, cables, connectors, trac-
tion battery) are strictly prohibited
due to the risks they present to your
safety. Please contact an authorised
dealer.
Risk of fire, burns or electric
shocks which may lead to seri-
ous injury.
A
ELECTRIC VEHICLE: introduction (3/5)
The A symbol denotes the electrical
elements of your vehicle which may
present health risks.
“58 volt” electrical circuit
The electrical circuit can be recognised
by the orange cables and by the ele-
ments signalled using the
 symbol.
Noise
Electric 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 see the information under
“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
handbrake is engaged and
switch off the ignition.
Risk of serious injury.

AUDIBLE AND VISUAL SIGNALS
Horn
Press the end of stalk 1.
Headlight flasher
Pull stalk 1 towards you to flash the
headlights.
éHazard warning lights
Press switch 2 . This switch
lights up all four indicators simultane-
ously. It must only be used in an emer-
gency to warn drivers of other vehicles
that you have had to stop in an area
where stopping is prohibited or unex-
pected or that you are obliged to drive
under special conditions.
Direction indicators
Move stalk 1 parallel to the steering
wheel and in the direction you are going
to turn it.
When driving on the motorway, the
steering wheel is not often turned
enough to return the stalk automatically
to 0.
There is also an intermediate position
in which the switch may be held when
changing lanes.
When the stalk is released, it automati-
cally returns to 0.

faces mark 2.
Deactivating the system
