Precautions
For daily use, it is recommended that
you charge your vehicle to 80% to im­
prove the �� 43 battery service life.
Avoid charging and parking your vehi­
cle in extreme temperatures (hot or
cold).
Under extreme conditions, charging
may take several minutes before start­
ing (time required for the traction bat­
tery to cool down or warm up).
When the vehicle is parked for more
than seven days in temperatures be­
low approximately -25°C, charging the
traction battery can become impossi­
ble.
When the vehicle is parked for more
than three months with near zero
charge, charging the battery can be­
come impossible.
The energy level available depends on
the battery temperature. It may there­
fore vary between stopping and
restarting the vehicle if the battery is
cold or warm.
To preserve the service life of your
traction battery, avoid parking the vehi­
cle for more than one month with high
charge, especially when the weather is
very hot.
Favour charging the traction battery af­
ter driving and/or in mild temperatures.
Otherwise, charging may take a longer
period of time or even become impos­
sible.
It is preferable to recharge the vehicle
after driving if the charge level is low (<
25%) and in negative temperatures.
Advice
– In high temperatures, try to park and
recharge the vehicle in a shaded/shel­
tered location;
– charging can be performed in the
rain or snow;
– activating the air­conditioning in­
creases the charging time required.
