The remaining range is no longer calculated. The drive train power
gradually decreases.
The heating and air conditioning are switched
off (even if the thermal comfort consumption
indicator is not at the "ECO" level).
Flow indicator (Electric)
The flow indicator displays the energy flows in
the vehicle in real time.
It is available in the " Personal 1"/"Personal 2"
display modes of the instrument panel.
For more information on the Display modes,
refer to the corresponding section.


The indicator changes colour depending on how
energy from the traction battery is being used:
Blue: energy consumption
Green: energy recovery
This indicator does not represent the battery's actual level of charge.
Thermal comfort
consumption indicator
(Electric)
(Depending on version)
It is available in the " Personal 1"/"Personal 2"
display modes of the instrument panel.
For more information on the Display modes,
refer to the corresponding section.


The gauge shows the consumption of the
traction battery's electrical energy by the thermal
comfort devices in the passenger compartment.
The devices in question are the heating and air
conditioning systems.
This equipment can be used:
–

If the vehicle is not plugged in, when the
READY

lamp is lit.
–

If the vehicle is plugged in, when the ignition is
switched on ("Lounge" mode).
Selecting ECO

mode limits the performance of
some of this equipment. The thermal comfort
consumption indicator then moves into the
"ECO" zone.
To quickly heat or cool the passenger compartment, feel free to temporarily
select the maximum heating or cooling
setting.
When the heating is on maximum, the gauge
on the thermal comfort consumption indicator
is in the MAX zone. When the air conditioning
is on maximum, it stays in the ECO zone.
Excessive use of thermal comfort equipment,
particularly at low speed, can significantly
decrease the vehicle's range.
Remember to optimise equipment settings
upon achieving the desired level of comfort,
and adjust them if necessary whenever you
start the vehicle.
After an extended period without using the
heating, you may notice a slight odour during
the first few minutes of use.
Manual test
This function allows you to check certain
indicators and display the alerts log.
It can be accessed via the "Check" button
in the Driving/Vehicle touch screen
menu.
Depending on version, the following information
is displayed on the instrument panel:
–

Engine oil level.
–


Next service due.
–

fuel remaining in the tank (based on the
average fuel consumption over the last few miles
(kilometres) travelled).
This value may vary following a change in driving
style or terrain, leading to a significant change in
current fuel consumption.
When the range falls below 19 miles (30
km),
dashes are displayed.
After filling with at least 5 litres of fuel, the range
is recalculated and is displayed if it exceeds 62
miles (100
km).
Dashes appearing permanently in place of

Driving

The reversing camera is activated automatically
when reverse gear is engaged.
The image is displayed on the touch screen.
The reversing camera function may be supplemented by the parking sensors.


The blue lines 1 indicate the general direction of
the vehicle (the gap corresponds to the width of
your vehicle including the mirrors).
The red line 2 represents a distance of about
30
cm beyond the edge of your vehicle's rear
bumper.
The green lines 3 represent distances of about 1
and 2 metres beyond the edge of your vehicle's
rear bumper.
The turquoise curves 4 show the maximum
turning angle in either direction.
Opening the tailgate causes the display
to disappear.
Clean the reversing camera regularly
using a soft, dry cloth.
Top Rear Vision - 360 vision
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids .
With the engine running, these systems allow
views of your vehicle’s close surroundings to be
displayed on the touch screen using one camera
for Top Rear Vision and two cameras for 360
vision.




The screen is divided into two parts with a
contextual view and a view from above the
vehicle in its close surroundings.
The parking sensors supplement the information
on the view from above the vehicle.
Various contextual views may be displayed:
–
Standard view
.
–

180° view
.
–

Zoom view

Driving
The blue lines 1 represent the width of your
vehicle, with the mirrors unfolded; their direction
changes according to the position of the steering
wheel.
The red line 2 represents a distance of 30
cm
from the rear bumper; the two blue lines 3 and 4
represent 1
m and 2 m, respectively.
This view is available with AUTO mode or in the
view selection menu.
Zoom view

The camera records the vehicle's surroundings
during the manoeuvre in order to create a
view from above the rear of the vehicle in its
near surroundings, allowing the vehicle to be
manoeuvred around nearby obstacles.
This view is available with AUTO mode or in the
view selection menu.
Obstacles may appear further away than
they actually are.
It is important to monitor the sides of the
vehicle during the manoeuvre, using the
mirrors.
Parking sensors also provide additional
information about the area around the vehicle.
180° view

The 180° view facilitates reversing out of a
parking space, making it possible to see the
approach of vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists.
This view is not recommended for carrying out a
complete manoeuvre.
It features 3 areas: left A, centre B and right C. This view is only available via the view selection
menu.
360 vision
The vehicle has a camera at the front
, fitted in
the grille, and a camera at the rear, located close
to the number plate lamps.
Using these cameras, the system displays the
vehicle's near surroundings on the touch screen,
offering views from the rear of the vehicle (rear
vision) when reverse gear is engaged and views
from the front of the vehicle (front vision) when
the gearbox is in neutral or a gear is engaged.
