ELECTRIC VEHICLE: charging (5/8)
Charging connection 2
The vehicle has a charging connection
located at the front of the vehicle.
Avoid charging and parking your ve-
hicle in extreme temperatures (hot or
cold).
When the vehicle is parked in tempera-
tures lower than around -25°C, the bat-
tery cannot be charged.
To preserve the service life of your trac-
tion battery, avoid parking the vehicle
for more than three months with high
charge, especially when the weather is
very hot.
You must charge the traction bat-
tery after driving in very cold weather.
Otherwise, charging may take a longer
period of time or even become impos-
sible.
Recommendations
– In extreme heat, favour parking and
recharging the vehicle in a shaded/
covered location.
– Charging can be performed in the
rain or snow.
2
In the absence of any protection
against overvoltage, you are recom-
mended not to charge the vehicle in
stormy weather (lightning, etc.).
Note:
If in a snowy environment, remove
snow from the vehicle charging area
before plugging in or disconnecting.
Snow in the socket may block the in-
sertion of the charging cord plug.
The traction battery charging time
depends on the amount of energy
remaining, the power delivered by
the charging terminal and the tem-
perature conditions (hot or cold).
The information is displayed on
the instrument panel during charg-
ing. Please see the information on
“Displays and indicators” in
Section 1.
In the event of a problem, we rec-
ommend that you replace it with an
identical cord. Please see an autho-
rised dealer.
