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 feature:
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.
ELECTRIC VEHICLE: introduction (5/5)
Bad weather, flooded roads:
Do not drive through floods 
if the depth of water is 
above the lower edge of 
the wheel rims
Your electric vehicle is 
silent, so when you get out, 
place the gear selector on 
P, engage the handbrake 
and switch off the ignition.
RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY
The engine brake should 
under no circumstances be 
used as a substitute for the 
brake pedal.
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 refer to the information on the 
“Pedestrian 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).
When the vehicle is stopped, the heat-
ing system may start automatically for 
self-maintenance.
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.
There is a risk of wedging the 
pedals

CHILD SAFETY: General information (1/2)
Carrying children
Children, and adults, must be correctly 
seated and strapped in for all journeys. 
The children being carried in your vehi-
cle are your responsibility.
A child is not a miniature adult. Children 
are at risk of specific injuries as their 
muscles and bones have not yet fin-
ished growing. The seat belt alone 
would not provide suitable protection. 
Use an approved child seat and ensure 
you use it correctly.
A collision at 30 mph 
(50 km/h) is the same as fall-
ing a distance of 10 metres. 
Transporting a child without 
a restraint is the equivalent of allow-
ing him or her to play on a fourth-
floor balcony without railings.
Never travel with a child held in your 
arms. In the event of an accident, 
you will not be able to keep hold of 
the child, even if you yourself are 
wearing a seat belt.
If your vehicle has been involved in 
a road accident, replace the child 
seat and have the seat belts and 
ISOFIX anchorage points checked.
To prevent the doors being 
opened, use the “Child 
safety” device (refer to the 
information on “Opening 
and closing the doors” in Section 1).
Driver’s responsibility 
when parking or stopping 
the vehicle
Never leave an animal, 
child or adult who is not self-suffi-
cient alone on your vehicle, even for 
a short time.
They may pose a risk to themselves 
or to others by starting the engine, 
activating equipment such as the 
electric windows or by locking the 
doors.
Also, in hot and/or sunny weather, 
please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-
ment increases very quickly.
