Activation of the Hybrid4 system
On activation of the Hybrid4 system, the
instrument panel lights up, the power indicator
needle is placed at position " 0
". The steering
column automatically unlocks (perceptible
noise and movement of the steering column).
Depending on certain parameters, such as the
state of charge of the high voltage battery or
the ambient temperature, the Hybrid4 system
itself determines whether it is necessary to
start the HDi Diesel engine.
The mode selector is at the AUTO
position.
In wintry conditions with the
engine cold, the Diesel pre-
heating warning lamp can stay
on for a few seconds; wait until
it goes off before releasing the
brake pedal.

)
Press the " START/STOP
"
button, the instrument panel
comes on but the Hybrid4 system

"ECO OFF" function
This function prevents the HDi Diesel engine being
switched off and ensures that a comfortable temperature
can be maintained in the passenger compartment.
This therefore allows the air conditioning or heating to be
kept running.
Depending on version, the control is either in
the switch panel alongside the steering wheel,
or in the " Driving
" menu of the touch screen.
On pressing the ECO OFF
switch, the
HDi Diesel engine restarts immediately and
then operates continuously.
The indicator lamp in the control comes on.
Pressing this control again deactivates the
function.
The indicator lamp in the control goes off.
The Hybrid4 system returns to normal
operation.
*
Except in ZEV mode, which gives preference
to electric running over maintaining a
comfortable temperature.
The function is deactivated on
switching off the ignition.
During phases of electric running and
when the internal combustion engine is
stopped, the Hybrid4 system manages
restarting automatically to maintain
the temperature in the passenger
compartment * .
However, variations in temperature
may still be felt in very high ambient
temperatures.
In this case, activate the ECO OFF
function.
With the switch on the dashboard
)
Press this switch.
Deactivation is confirmed by the illumination of

the wash.
With the Hybrid4 system active, READY
lamp on, parking brake
released:
)
Place the gear selector at position N
.
)
Switch off the Hybrid4 system (press the START/STOP
button). The READY

button without
your foot on the brake pedal) after having checked that the
parking brake remains released.
If the HDi Diesel engine was on standby, it then restarts.

Air conditioning / Heating
Question
Answer
It seems to me that the vehicle runs less on electric
when the heating or air conditioning is operating, is that
right? The demand for heating or air conditioning may require the starting of the HDi Diesel
engine until the desired level of comfort is attained.
Normal operation of the Hybrid4 system is simply put back. The period can be longer
under very low or very high ambient temperatures.
It seems to me that when it is very hot and the air
conditioning is working, the vehicle runs on electric for
shorter periods. Is that right? When it is hot, the periods when the HDi Diesel engine is put on standby and the vehicle
runs on electric are necessarily restricted in order to limit the difference between the
temperature in the vehicle and the level of comfort selected.
In very hot weather, it is possible to press the " ECO OFF
" button (which brings the vehicle
out of ZEV
mode and prevents electric running or the stopping of the engine) to give
preference to temperature control (keeps the air conditioning running).
Miscellaneous
Question
Answer
Is towing possible with my Hybrid4 vehicle? For information on the towing ability of your Hybrid4 vehicle, refer to " Weights and towed
loads" in the "Technical data" section.
This allows a jet ski or two-wheeler on a trailer to be towed, for example.
This limit is related to maintaining adequate cooling capacity for the HDi Diesel engine as
well as the components of the Hybrid4 system that are also cooled by the engine's cooling
system.
Why does engine braking seem so strong? If the high voltage battery is not fully charged, the engine braking results mainly from the
energy recovery by the electric motor. The power of this engine braking is higher than that
of an internal combustion engine.
