Practical information -> Charging the traction battery (Electric) for Your Peugeot 2008 SUV Second Generation (2019-2025)

Practical information  
Accelerated charging, mode 3  
Fast charging, mode 4  
For a full charge, follow the desired charging  
procedure without pausing it, until it ends  
automatically. Charging can be either immediate  
or deferred (except fast public charger, mode 4).  
You can stop domestic or accelerated charging  
at any time by unlocking the vehicle and  
removing the nozzle. For superfast charging,  
refer to the fast public charger.

Accelerated charging unit (Wallbox)  
(accelerated charging - single-phase or three-  
phase alternating current (AC))  
Public fast charger  
(superfast charging - direct current (DC))  
For more information on the charging displays  
on the Instrument panel and the Touch screen,  
refer to the corresponding section.  
Depending on version, in mode 3 with an  
accelerated charging unit (Wallbox): 32 A  
maximum charging current.  
It is also possible to monitor the charging  
progress using the MYPEUGEOT APP  
application.  
For more information on Remote functions,  
refer to the corresponding section.  
Charging cable, mode 4 (DC)  
(integrated into the public fast charger)  
Charging cable, mode 3 (AC)  
As a safety measure, the engine will not  
start if the charging cable is plugged into  
the connector on the vehicle. A warning is  
displayed on the instrument panel.  
Only use public fast chargers where the cable  
length does not exceed 30 metres.  
Cooling the traction battery  
The cooling fan in the engine  
compartment comes on during charging to  
cool the on-board charger and the traction  
battery.  
Accelerated charging unit (Wallbox)  
Do not disassemble or modify the  
charging unit - risk of electrocution and/or fire!  
Refer to the charging unit manufacturer's user  
manual for the operating instructions.  
Charging the traction  
battery (Electric)  
To recharge, connect the vehicle to a domestic  
electricity supply (domestic or accelerated  
charging) or to a fast public charger (superfast  
charging).

Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation  
Protection (ICNIRP - 1998 Guidelines).  
If no action is taken on one of the openings  
(door or boot) or on the charging nozzle, the  
vehicle will lock again after 30 seconds and  
charging will resume automatically.  
Never work under the bonnet:  
– Some areas remain very hot, even an hour  
after charging ends - risk of burns!  
– The fan may start at any time - risk of cuts  
or strangulation!  
month  
Discharge the traction battery down to 2 or  
3 bars on the charge level indicator on the  
instrument panel.  
If in doubt  
Domestic or accelerated charging: do  
not remain inside or near the vehicle, or near  
the charging cable or charging unit, even for  
a short time.  
Superfast charging: do not use the system  
yourself and avoid approaching public fast  
charging points. Leave the area and ask a  
third party to recharge the vehicle.  
Do not connect the charging cable.  
Always park the vehicle in a place with  
temperatures between -10°C and 30°C  
(parking in a place with extreme temperatures  
can damage the traction battery).  
Disconnect the cable from the (+) terminal  
of the accessory battery in the engine  
compartment.  
Connect a 12 V battery charger to the (+)  
and (-) terminals of the accessory battery  
about every 3 months in order to recharge the  
accessory battery and maintain an operating  
voltage.  
After charging  
Check that the charging flap is closed.  
Do not leave the cable connected to the  
domestic power socket - risk of short-circuit  
or electrocution in the event of contact with or  
immersion in water!  
For domestic or accelerated charging  
Before charging  
Depending on the context:  
► Have a professional check that the  
electrical system to be used complies with  
applicable standards and is compatible with  
the vehicle.  
► Have a professional electrician install  
a dedicated domestic power socket or  
accelerated charging unit (Wallbox)  
compatible with the vehicle.  
You should preferably use the charging cable  
available as an accessory.  
For more information, contact a PEUGEOT  
dealer or a qualified workshop.  
For superfast charging  
Before charging  
Precautions  
Check that the fast public charging  
station and its charging cable are compatible  
with the vehicle.  
If the exterior temperature is below:  
– 0°C, charging times may be extended.  
– -20°C, charging is still possible, but  
charging times may be extended even further  
(the battery has to be heated first).
