The descriptions of the models given in this handbook are based on the technical specifications at the time of writing. This hand-
book covers all items of equipment (both standard and optional) available for these models but whether or not these are
fitted to the vehicle depends on the version, options selected and the country where the vehicle is sold.
This handbook may also contain information about items of equipment to be introduced later in the model year.
The diagrams in the user manual are provided as examples.
Enjoy driving your new vehicle.
This driver’s handbook contains the information necessary:
– for you to familiarise yourself with your vehicle, to use it to its best advantage and to benefit fully from the all the functions and
the technical developments it incorporates.
– to ensure that it always gives the best performance by following the simple, but comprehensive advice concerning regular main-
tenance.
– to enable you to deal quickly with minor faults not requiring specialist attention.
It is well worth taking a few minutes to read this handbook to familiarise yourself with the information and guidelines it contains
about the vehicle and its functions and new features. If certain points are still unclear, our Network technicians will be only too
pleased to provide you with any additional information.
To help you, you will find the following symbols:

ELECTRIC VEHICLE: introduction (2/5)
Electric vehicles have special features,
but operate in a similar manner to con-
ventional vehicles.
The main difference in electric vehicles
is the exclusive use of electric energy
instead of fuel, as used in convention
vehicles.
We therefore recommend that you read
these instructions describing your elec-
tric vehicle carefully.
Connected services
Your electric vehicle has connected
services that provide information and/
or control:
– your vehicle’s charging status with
low battery warning;
– the traction battery charging pro-
gramming, based on certain choices
on offer;
– remaining vehicle range;
– ...
You can subscribe to a connected
service or extend it at any time by
consulting an authorised dealer.
6 7
8
You can access these services by:
– external digital devices (mobile tele-
phones 7, tablets 8 etc.);
– the vehicle multimedia screen 6.
For more information, refer to the mul-
timedia equipment instructions or con-
tact an Approved Dealer.

1.4
ENG_UD75070_2
Véhicule électrique : Présentation (BCB - Renault)
Batteries
Your electric vehicle has two types of
battery:
– a 400V traction battery;
– secondary 12 V battery.
400 V traction battery
This battery stores the energy neces-
sary to operate the motor in your elec-
tric vehicle properly. As with any bat-
tery, it discharges after use, and must
be regularly recharged.
You do not have to wait until the traction
battery hits the reserve level in order to
recharge it.
Charging times vary depending on the
type of specific wall unit socket or public
terminal you connect to.
Your vehicle range will depend on the
charge level of the traction battery, and
also on your driving style ➥2.20.
Secondary 12V battery
The second battery on your vehicle is
a secondary 12 V battery: this supplies
the energy required to operate vehicle
equipment (lights, windscreen wipers,
ABS, etc).
ELECTRIC VEHICLE: introduction (3/5)

1.5
ENG_UD75070_2
Véhicule électrique : Présentation (BCB - Renault)
The vehicle drive system
in an electric vehicle uses
a direct voltage of approxi-
mately 400 volts.
This system can get hot during
and after switching off the ignition.
Respect warning messages given
on the labels in the vehicle.
All interventions or modifications to
the 400V electrical system (com-
ponents, cables, connectors, trac-
tion battery) are strictly prohibited
due to the risks they present to your
safety. Please contact an authorised
dealer.
The risk of serious burns or elec-
tric shocks can lead to death.
A
ELECTRIC VEHICLE: introduction (4/5)
The Asymbol denotes the electrical el-
ements of your vehicle which may pres-
ent health risks.
“400 volt” electrical circuit
The 400 V electrical circuit is denoted

Driving
As with a car with an automatic gear-
box, you will have to get used to not
using your left foot, and not using this
foot to brake.
When driving, if you lift your foot off the
accelerator pedal or depress the brake
pedal, the motor generates electrical
current during deceleration, and this
energy is used to brake the vehicle and
recharge the traction battery ➥2.17.
Bad weather, flooded roads:
Do not drive through floods
if the depth of water is
above the lower edge of
the wheel rims.
ELECTRIC VEHICLE: introduction (5/5)
Your electric vehicle is
silent. Before leaving it, with
your foot on the brake, stop
the engine.
RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY
The engine brake should
under no circumstances be
used as a substitute for the
brake pedal.
Noise
Electric vehicles are particularly quiet.
You will not yet necessarily be used to
it, and neither will other road users. It
is difficult for them to hear the vehicle
when it is moving.
As the motor is silent, you will hear
noises that you are not used to hearing
(aerodynamic noises, tyre noise, etc.).
Each time the ignition is switched off,
the ventilation will be switched off after
about ten seconds.
Obstructions to the driver
On the driver’s side, only
use mats suitable for the
vehicle, attached with the
pre-fitted components, and check
the fitting regularly. Do not lay one
mat on top of another.
There is a risk of wedging the
pedals
Pedestrian horn
The pedestrian horn enables you to
warn others of your presence – espe-
cially pedestrians and cyclists.
When the engine is started, the pedes-
trian horn is activated automatically.
The sound is triggered when the vehi-
cle speed is between about 1 and
19 mph (1 and 30 km/h).
For further information on the pedes-
trian horn, refer to the multimedia in-
structions.
In the event of a fault with the pedes-
trian horn, the warning light is
displayed on the instrument panel,
together with the message “Failure
Outside sound”.
Consult an approved dealer.
