RECHARGE THE BATTERIES IN A VENTILATED AREA, FAR AWAY FROM
SOURCES OF HEAT, NAKED FLAMES OR SPARKS.
IF THE VEHICLE IS NOT GOING TO BE USED FOR A LONG TIME, RECHARGE
THE BATTERIES COMPLETELY AT LEAST EVERY 3 (THREE) MONTHS
TO RECHARGE THE BATTERIES PLUG INTO A PUBLIC CHARGING STATION
FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLES OR A HOUSEHOLD SOCKET CONFORMING TO
STANDARDS, EARTHED AND FITTED WITH AN RCD.
CAUTION
IF THE VEHICLE (WITH THE ENGINE OFF) STAYS FOR A LONG TIME IN AN
ENVIRONMENT WHERE THE TEMPERATURE IS BETWEEN 0°C AND -10°C, THE
ON-BOARD ELECTRONICS ALLOWS SLOW RECHARGING OF THE TRACTION
BATTERY - TAKING ABOUT 7 HOURS UNTIL IT HAS RECHARGED 80%, IN OR-
DER TO SAFEGUARD BATTERY INTEGRITY.
THE TEMPERATURE REFERS TO THAT OF THE ELECTRONICS INSIDE THE
VEHICLE (BATTERY) THAT CAN BE COMPARED WITH AMBIENT TEMPERA-
TURE ONLY IF THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN LEFT FOR A LONG TIME WITH THE
ENGINE OFF.
Operating/recharge temperature:
- between 0°C and 40°C, ordinary charge (full in 3-4 hours; after about 3 hours
85% charge)
- between -10°C and 0°C, slow recharge (maximum 80% of recharge; achieved
in 7 hours)
N.B.
LOW TEMPERATURE CAN REDUCE AUTONOMY. If in particular the tempera-
ture at which it is charged is such as to allow only the slow charge and the
vehicle is used at extremely low temperatures, the reduction of autonomy may
also be of the order of 25%.
