CITROEN E-MEHARI - The LMP (Lithium Metal Polymer) battery

4
Overview
In order to offer its optimum range,
your E-MEHARI's LMP
®
battery must
be charged whenever possible,
particularly during periods when it is
parked for several hours.
A battery charged to 100% cannot
remain parked for more than 48
hours
without being recharged.
Due to its intrinsic characteristics,
and in contrast to Li-ion batteries, the
LMP
®
battery is not sensitive to exterior
temperature conditions.
The vehicle's range has been type-approved
in accordance with European Regulation ECE
101R01.
For more information on the service life of the
LMP
®
battery, contact your CITROËN customer
services.
IT IS PROHIBITED to recycle or scrap the
LMP
®
battery from your E-MEHARI. The
LMP
®
battery is the property of Bluecar
and must never be discarded.
To help you charge your E-MEHARI's
LMP
®
battery correctly, Bluecar may
contact you to tell you that the charge
level is becoming too low.
Driving with a discharged LMP
®
battery
When the level of charge of your LMP
®
battery
becomes too low (20%): a warning lamp
appears on the upper screen of the dashboard.
Your E-MEHARI must be connected to
a charging point that meets CITROËN's
specifications without delay.
The distance that your E-MEHARI can cover
will be very limited and the output from the
motor (the torque) will be automatically reduced
to increase the potential range.
To charge the LMP
®
battery, the vehicle has to
be connected to a
power supply. To improve its
range, your E-MEHARI has an energy recovery
system using the braking effect of the electric
motor on deceleration.
Your E-MEHARI is a vehicle that emits no
polluting gases, such as CO
2
, nor micro-
particles. Your E-MEHARI is also completely
silent.
The LMP
®
(Lithium Metal
Polymer) battery
Your E-MEHARI contains a high
voltage LMP
®
battery isolated from its
surroundings by its unique packaging
arrangement. The LMP
®
battery must
only be handled by trained and qualified
persons. Never handle the LMP
®
battery
yourself: risk of severe burns, electric
shock that could cause serious or fatal
injuries and risks for the environment.
NEVER HANDLE THE LMP
®
BATTERY
YOURSELF.
Precautions on the use of the
LMP
®
battery
To avoid damaging the LMP
®
battery, it is
recommended that:
• The vehicle be placed on charge straight
away if the charge indicator drops to 0%.
• THE LMP® BATTERY NEVER BE USED
FOR ANY OTHER PURPOSE.
