Maintenance

e-mehari_en_Chap04_entretien_ed02-2016

The drive train is powered directly
by the LMP

battery fitted to your

E-MEHARI.
Never try to do anything to the high
voltage components of your vehicle.
A mistake in handling these
components could cause an electric
shock and serious or fatal injuries.

The underbonnet of the vehicle is a
dangerous area that could cause serious
injuries.

Always keep children well away from
the underbonnet and never leave them
unsupervised.

Under the bonnet

Under the bonnet of your E-MEHARI can
be found the vehicle's drive train and the
reservoirs containing the fluid needed for the
correct operation of your E-MEHARI (brake
fluid, coolant and screenwash fluid).

Opening the bonnet

Releasing the bonnet: Pull the bonnet

release lever (1) located below and to the
left of the steering wheel, at the vehicles
left-hand front wheel arch.

Your E-MEHARI's bonnet is opened in two
steps:

The bonnet stay locates into the red cutout (3)
provided for this purpose.

When opening the bonnet, ensure that
it is always supported by the stay, so
as to avoid any injury resulting from the
bonnet dropping.

Tip the bonnet safety catch (1). Raise and

secure the bonnet using the stay (2).

Maintenance

e-mehari_en_Chap04_entretien_ed02-2016

If you notice when driving that the
bonnet is not closed correctly, slow
down and stop where it is safe to do so,
and then close the bonnet correctly.

There are high voltage components
under the bonnet of your E-MEHARI.
We recommend that you should not
try to carry out the maintenance and
servicing of your vehicle yourself.
A mistake in handling these
components could cause an electric
shock and serious or fatal injuries.

If work is needed on your vehicle,
contact a CITROËN authorised repairer
or a qualified professional without delay.

Closing the bonnet

Disengage the stay while holding the bonnet
with one hand to avoid it suddenly dropping.
Return the stay to its original position and allow
the bonnet to drop and latch home.
Check that the bonnet has latched correctly.

Maintenance

e-mehari_en_Chap04_entretien_ed02-2016

Servicing your

E-MEHARI

The maintenance and servicing of your vehicle
must be carried out by a CITROËN authorised
repairer or a qualified professional and in line
with the principles stated in the maintenance
and warranty guide.

Tyres / Tyre pressures

Tyres fitted to your E-MEHARI

Tyre pressures

Front 2 bar /

Rear 2 bar

Check the tyre pressures regularly and
always observe the inflation pressures
indicated above.
Low tyre pressures can cause
premature wear of the tyres and
introduce the risk of the tyres bursting.
The tyre pressures must be checked
with the tyres cold and adjusted if
necessary.

Replace worn tyres only by tyres of
same model as the original fitment, or
equivalent, and fitted by a tyre fitting
specialist.

The responsibility for having the correct
tyre pressures lies with the driver.

Never exceed the speed rating or load
index of the tyres fitted to the vehicle.

It is for the driver to check the wear of
the tyres using the wear indicators in
the tyre tread.

Maintenance

e-mehari_en_Chap04_entretien_ed02-2016

Never wash the underbonnet, the
charging socket or the traction battery
using a high pressure jet wash: risk of
damage to the electrical system.
Never wash the vehicle while it is
charging: risk of electric shock that
could cause death.

Cleaning the vehicle by the regular
use of a high pressure car wash with
rotating brushes is not recommended.

Washing precautions

Not recommended for care
of the bodywork

● Degreasing or cleaning the mechanical

components under the body, parts with
hinges, exterior plastic panels using a high
pressure jet wash or spraying products not
intended for this purpose, such as solvents

● Washing the vehicle in direct sunlight
● Removing mud or stains without first

soaking with water

Recommended for care of
the bodywork

● Wash your E-MEHARI regularly using car

shampoo created for the care of vehicles
with plastic body parts (never with abrasive
products)

● As soon as possible, rinse and hose off

resinous deposits from trees, fallout from
industrial pollution, bird droppings that
produce a chemical reaction with the
bodywork causing rapid discoloration

Care of interior trim

Stains should always be dealt with quickly.
Whatever the nature of the stain, use cold or
warm water with natural soap.
Detergents (washing up liquid, powder
products, alcohol-based products…) should not
be used.

● Use a soft cloth.
● Rinse and absorb the excess.
● Finish by wiping gently with a dry soft cloth.

Never wash your E-MEHARI while the
vehicle is charging.

Practical advice

e-mehari_en_Chap05_conseils-pratiques_ed02-2016

Temporary puncture repair kit

Access to the repair kit

You E-MEHARI's puncture repair kit (1) is
located under the boot floor hatch.
The boot floor hatch is opened with the grip (2)
(only if your E-MEHARI is only unlocked using
your personal RFID key ring).

Never remove from a tyre the foreign
body that has caused the puncture.

The sealant product held in the
compressor is toxic and is an irritant.
Never ingest it, never spray it onto the
body, face or eyes.

In the event of ingestion, call the
emergency services (fire, ambulance...)
or go to Accident & Emergency
services.
If it enters the eyes, wash with abundant
clean water and consult a doctor
without delay.
If the symptoms persist, consult a
specialist.

Keep the sealant product out of the
reach of children.

Using the puncture repair kit

Refer to the instructions provided with the
compressor.

Do not simply throw the old cartridge
away after use; take it to your CITROËN
authorised repairer or to a waste
recovery organisation that specialises
in this type of product.

Once the tyre has been repaired, go
to a CITROËN authorised repairer or
a qualified professional as soon as
possible.

If you are unable to obtain the desired
pressure after a few minutes of
operation of the compressor, this
means that the tyre cannot be repaired.
Contact CITRÖEN ASSISTANCE who
will send a roadside recovery agent.

e-mehari_en_Chap05_conseils-pratiques_ed02-2016

Replacing a bulb

All maintenance on the vehicle's lamps must be
carried out by a CITROËN authorised repairer
or a qualified professional.
If a headlamp has to be replaced on your
E-MEHARI: go to a CITROËN authorised
repairer or qualified professional.

Replacing a fuse

Fuses under the bonnet

Your E-MEHARI is an electric vehicle
that includes systems operating at
high voltage and high currents. The
maintenance on the fuses under the
bonnet of your E-MEHARI must be
carried out by a qualified person.
A mistake handling these parts could
cause an electric shock resulting in
serious injury or death.

All maintenance on the vehicle's fuses must be
carried out by a CITROËN authorised repairer
or a qualified professional.

Fuses in the passenger
compartment

Remove the nut from the access cover (1)
located below the passenger storage
compartment.

If an electric system is not working, check the
condition of the fuses.

Practical advice

e-mehari_en_Chap05_conseils-pratiques_ed02-2016

Check the condition of the fuse and, if
necessary, replace it with a new fuse,
which must be of the same rating as the
original fuse.
A fuse of too high a rating could cause
overheating of the electrical system
(risk of fire) if there were abnormal
current consumption in a circuit.

To check and replace a fuse:
- Extract the fuse using the tweezer (1)
- Slide the tweezer sideways to remove it
- It is recommended that the free fuse

locations be not used

- Don't forget to return the tweezer (1) to its

holder

The tweezer for extracting fuses (1) is located
under the bonnet.

Practical advice

e-mehari_en_Chap05_conseils-pratiques_ed02-2016

Going into hibernation
mode

Maximum hibernation period
according to the state of charge
of the battery

100%: 4 months
75% - 99%: 3 months
50% - 74%: 2 months
25% - 49%: 1 month

Do not put your E-MEHARI into

hibernation with a battery state of

charge of less than 25%.

Unlock your vehicle and disconnect the
charging plug.

Turn the ignition key to the first position, the
screen then displays:

Position the hibernation key in the switch
located below the drive selector, turn it to
the right and hold it in this position for a few
seconds.

The screen then displays: entry into hibernation
mode is confirmed.
Remove the hibernation key and the starter key.
The screen goes off after 30 seconds.

Do not lock the vehicle.

Hibernation mode

Hibernation mode allows the consumption of
energy from the battery to be reduced to a
minimum.
In this way you can park your E-MEHARI,
not connected and with no consumption of
electrical energy, for several weeks or even
several months.
Coming out of hibernation mode takes 4 hours
and is followed by the charging time (a
maximum of between 8 and 13 hours).
