If this warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel, automatic application / release is
deactivated. The parking brake must
be applied and released manually. y


Before leaving the vehicle, check that
the the brake warning lamp and the Pwarning lamp in the control lever Aare on fixed (not flashing).

If towing a trailer or caravan or if theslope might vary (transpor t by boat or lorry, recovery of the vehicle...) make a maximum application of the parking brake - by making a long pull on the
control lever A
- to immobilise thevehicle.

Driving safely
Electric parking brake
Manual Application/Release
Manual applicationof the parking brake is possible by pulling
the control lever A.With the ignition on, manual release
of the parking brake is possible by pressing the brake pedal
and pulling
then releasing
the control lever A
.


If an audible signal is heard on opening the driver's door with the hybrid system active, apply the parking brake
manually. Do not leave a child alone in the vehiclewith the ignition on; they might releasethe parking brake.


Automatic Application / Release

Press the accelerator pedal, the parking brake
is released automatically and progressively as you move off.
With the vehicle stationary, the parking brake
is applied automatically on switching off the
ignition (Readylamp off).

Reducing consumption - Fuel
QuestionAnswer
How can I optimise m
y fuel consumption? Give preference to Auto mode as it selects in the best way the "driving energy source" to use in
order to reduce fuel consumption.
You should also adapt
your driving style to the characteristics of hybrid vehicles to get the best
out of it, for example by taking your foot off the accelerator pedal rather than braking and by
anticipating decelerations (entering a built-up area, stop at traffic lights, stop at halt signs, ...).
Wh
y do I not manage to reduce my fuel consumption even though I often drive in ZEV(Zero Emissions Vehicle) mode?It is not ZEV mode but Auto mode that is the most appropriate
for reducing fuel consumption, as it selects the best "driving energy source".
ZEV mode (10 0% electric operation) can reduce fuel consumption in some cases. However,
recharging the traction battery has an energy cost.
This is why we recommend using Auto mode more often.
Wh
y does the trip computer sometimes displaythe bars for 28 mpg (10 litres) consumption in
town? The current fuel consumption displa
yed may appear high when the distance covered is very low,
but this generally has very little impact and the true average fuel consumption will remain low.
In town, your hybrid retains very good fuel economy (of the order of 35% better than a non-hybrid
vehicle).
Wh
y is my battery rarely fully charged? A partly charged battery is normal operation (4 to 5 bars on average in Auto mode).
This allows some capacity to be left free for the recovery for energy when going downhill or takingwhen your foot off the accelerator.
Wh
y are there so may fuel aler t messages whenstarting to use the reser ve?To e n c o u r age you to refuel as soon as possible and avoid the loss of hybrid functions.

Hybrid system

Air conditioning
QuestionAnswer

It seems to me that the vehicle runs less on electric when the heating or air conditioning is
operatin
g, is that right?
The demand for heating or air conditioning may require the star ting of the Diesel engine until thedesired level of comfort is attained.
Normal h
ybrid operation is simply put back. The period can be longer under low or very high
ambient temperatures.
It seems to me that when it is ver
y hot and the
air conditioning is working, the vehicle runs on electric for shor ter periods. Is that right? When it is hot, the periods when the Diesel en
gine is put on standby and the vehicle runs onelectric 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 always 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).

Special Hybrid4 features
QuestionAnswer
Can I tow with m
y hybrid vehicle and how much? A Hybrid4 vehicle can tow between 500 kg and 800 kg (see the "Towing" section).
This allows a jet ski or two-wheeler on a trailer to be towed, for example.
The "technical" reason for the limit is related to maintaining adequate cooling capacity for the internal combustion engine as well as the hybrid components that are also cooled by the engine's cooling system.
Wh
y does engine braking seem so strong? When you take your foot off the accelerator, the engine braking results mainly from the energyrecovery by the electric motor.
This leads to a higher level of deceleration than a conventional vehicle and so allows the recoveryof free energy.

Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
Eco-driving suited to your
Hybrid4 vehicle
Use gear selector position A , as thisoptimises gear changes to suit the circumstances, and the AUTOmode of theHybrid4 mode selector.When moving off, accelerate normally up tothe desired speed ( POWER
zone between20 and 40 %). At steady speeds, drive gently with smallmovements of the accelerator pedal (ECOor CHARGEzone), run in electric mode as oftenas possible when driving at low speed. Anticipate the need to slow down and useengine braking ( CHARGE
zone), so as to make use of free energy recovery while keeping light pressure on the accelerator pedal.

Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it byopening the windows and air vents beforeusing the air conditioning.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the windowsand leave the air vents open. Remember to make use of equipment that can help keep the temperature in the passenger compar tment down (sun roof andwindow blinds...).Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic digital regulation, as soon as the desired temperature is attained.Switch off the demisting and defrostingcontrols, if not automatic.Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch off the headlamps and front foglampswhen the level of light does not require their use.

Avoid running the Diesel engine when stationary, par ticularly in winter; your vehiclewill warm up much faster while driving.

As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia devices (film, music, video game...), you will contribute towards limitingthe consumption of electrical energy, and soof fuel.
Disconnect your por table devices beforeleaving the vehicle.
Control the use of your electrical equipment

Vehicle recovery


Before doing any work, with the ignition on, press the brake pedal and put the gear selector to
position N, then switch off the hybrid system.
If necessary because access to the vehicle is difficult, it can be moved a few dozen metres at a speed not exceeding 6 mph (10 km/h).
Use the towing eyes only to pull a vehicle out or
to pull it onto a flat-bed.

The front or rear wheels must not be on theground, use a flat-bed lorry or trailer to recover
t
he vehicle.
