Practical information
High voltage system voltage is
dangerous and can cause burns or other
injuries or even fatal electric shock.
Since damage to high voltage components is
not visible, CITROËN recommends that you:
– Never touch the components, damaged
or not, and never let your jewelry or other
metallic objects come into contact with these
components.
– Never work on the orange high voltage
cables or on any other high voltage
component marked with the Electric risk label.
Any intervention on the high voltage system
must be carried out by qualied persons in
workshops qualied and approved to carry
out this type of work.
– Never damage, modify or remove the
orange high voltage cables or disconnect
them from the high voltage network.
– Never open, modify or remove the cover of
the traction battery.
– Never work with cutting and forming
tools or heat sources near high voltage
components and cables.
In case of low level of uid in the cooling
tank, the relling shall only be performed in a
qualied and trained workshop to verify that
the leakage is not in the traction battery.
Any intervention on the high voltage system
must be carried out by qualied persons in
workshops qualied and approved to carry
out this type of work.
Damage to the vehicle or the traction battery
could result in the leakage of toxic gases or
uids either immediately or later. CITROËN
recommends that you:
– Always inform the re and emergency
services in the event of an incident, warning
that the vehicle is equipped with a traction
battery.
– Never touch the liquids leaking from the
traction battery.
– Do not inhale the gases emitted by the
traction battery which are toxic.
– Move away from the vehicle in the event of
incident or accident, the gases emitted being
ammable and could cause a re.
This label is intended solely for use by
reghters and maintenance services in
the event of any work on the vehicle.
No other person must touch the device shown
on this label.
In the event of an accident or impact
to the vehicle’s underbody
In these situations, the electrical circuit or the
traction battery can be seriously damaged.
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so and switch
o󰀨 the ignition.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualied
workshop.
When washing
Before washing the vehicle, always
check that the charging ap is closed
correctly.
Never wash the vehicle while the battery is
on charge.
High-pressure washing
To avoid damaging the electrical
components, it is expressly prohibited to
use high-pressure washing in the engine
compartment or under the body.
Do not use a pressure greater than 80 bar
when washing the bodywork.
Never allow water or dust to enter the
connector or charging nozzle - risk of
electrocution or re!
Never connect / disconnect the charging
nozzle or cable with wet hands - risk of
electrocution!
