Automatic restarting of the Diesel engine or ZEV mode NOT available

Maintaining the performance
of the system



- When the vehicle exceeds 18 mph(30 km/h) after moving off (if the internal
combustion engine has not already star ted since the vehicle was last star ted).

- If the high voltage battery is not sufficiently charged. A minimum of 4 barsin ZEV mode so as to ensure operationover a cer tain distance (in AUTO, electricoperation is accessible for a shor ter period with a lower level of charge).

- When the fuel level enters the reservezone (where rate of consumption of this reser ve is high, ZEV inhibition may continue for some time after refuelling).

- During regeneration of the particleemissions filter, which occursautomatically for 5 to 10 minutes,approximately every 300 miles (500 kms)(or less in extended urban running).

The internal combustion engine may restar t or
ZEV mode may not be available in the variousconditions presented below. The internal combustion engine can beswitched off automatically as soon as these
conditions are lifted. When the conditions described below causethe vehicle to come out of ZEV mode andthe Diesel engine to restar t, the vehicle automatically changes to AUTO mode.
Your vehicle is fitted with the most effective emissions control systems, in par ticular the Particle Emissions Filter (PEF).
At regular inter vals your Diesel engine will produce energy for the self-cleaning of this filter.During this PEF regeneration phase, electric running is purposely made unavailable andis accompanied by a message "Electricmode not available: PEF regeneration inprogress
".
Action by the driver
- Moving the gear selector to position M
. - Action on steering mounted control paddles to change gear.- Sustained and sharp acceleration. - Use of demisting.- Use of air conditioning.


Diffi cult weather conditions and
circumstances



- If cer tain conditions or engine temperature requirements make it necessary (such as an engine temperature that is too low for the ambient conditions).

- When the battery is close to maximumcharge (for example: when going down a long hill), because engine recoverybeing no longer possible, the internalcombustion engine restar ts automatically just to provide engine braking.

- If the vehicle encounters a steep slope(car park ramp, ...).

- If the vehicle has been parked in the sunfor a prolonged period.

- When driving in mountainous conditions(altitude).

ZEV (Zero Emissions Vehicle) mode
QuestionAnswer
Why is it not always possible
for me to put the
vehicle into ZEV (Zero Emissions Vehicle) mode even though the battery is well charged? This situation is temporary.
Certain conditions will occasionally prevent the change to ZEV mode, even if the battery hassufficient charge, such as, for example, very cold conditions, altitude, demisting, high demand for heating or air conditioning, regeneration of the par ticle emissions filter (PEF).
Wh
y do I sometimes see an aler t message "Electric mode not available: PEF regeneration
in progress"? This is an messa
ge relating to the regeneration of the par ticle emissions filter (PEF). This is acompletely normal process that takes place every 240 or 300 miles (400 or 500 km) (or more
frequently in prolonged urban use), as on a conventional HDi vehicle.
This process is not generally noticed by the driver.
On the other hand, in the case of a hybrid, this phenomenon may be noticeable (in urban use)
as temporarily the HDi engine will not stop and this message will be displayed at intervals while
regeneration is in progress.
Wh
y is it not possible for me to put the vehicle
into ZEV mode, even though I had just beenrunning electrically in Auto mode? The mana
gement of ZEV is different from Auto mode.
Changing to ZEV mode is only possible with a battery charge of at least 4 bars, in order to assure sufficient range.
In Auto mode, the system alone manages the conditions for changing temporarily to electric mode, for shorter periods and with a lower state of charge of the battery.
Wh
y is the range in ZEV (Zero Emissions
Vehic le) mode lower when climbing? The vehicle needs more energy when climbing than when running on the level.
So it is better to stay in Auto mode, which will favour operation of the Diesel engine.
Why is it that the system makes me come out o
f
ZEV (Zero Emissions Vehicle) mode; it does notreturn to ZEV automatically when the conditions allow? It is not intended to give pre
ference to ZEV running at any cost, as it is not always the most economical mode.
So the system returns automatically to Auto mode.

Observe the recommendations
on maintenance


Check the tyre pressures regularly, whencold, referring to the label in the door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in par ticular:


- before a long journey,

- at each change of season,

- after a long period out of use.



Have your vehicle ser viced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter...) and obser ve the schedule of operations recommended by themanufacturer.


When refuelling, do not continue after the3 rd
cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any over flow.

At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is onlyafter the first 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to a consistent average.


At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; placethe heaviest items in the bottom of the boot,as close as possible to the rear seats.Limit the loads carried in the vehicle andreduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack,bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in preference.Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
Limit the causes of excess
consumption

In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance guidelines below: )
To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as wellas the air extractor located in the boot.
)
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation of the digital air conditioning system. )
Operate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a monthto keep it in perfect working order. )
Ensure that the passenger compar tment filter is in good condition and have the filter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section). We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. Thanks to its special active additive, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by theoccupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).)
To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to haveit checked regularly as recommended in the ser vicing and warranty booklet. )
If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
You can switch off the air conditioning (AC button) and stay in Automatic mode in order to limit fuel consumption. If misting appears while in this mode, you can switch the air conditioning back on temporarily to improve the situation.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures, switching off theair conditioning increases the available engine power and so improves the towing ability.












Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning


If after an extended stop in sunshine,
the interior temperature is very high, firstventilate the passenger compar tment for a few moments. Put the air flow control at a setting high enough to quickly change the air in the passenger compartment. The air conditioning system does notcontain chlorine and does not present any danger to the ozone layer.


The condensation created by the air conditioning results in a dischargeof water under the vehicle which is
perfectly normal.

The various caps and covers allow access for
checking the levels of the various fluids, for replacing cer tain components and for primingthe fuel system.

Particle emission filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of theparticle filter is indicated bythe temporary illumination of
this warning lamp accompanied by a message
in the multi-function screen.
As soon as the traffic conditions permit, regenerate the filter by driving at aspeed of at least 40 mph (60 km/h) until the warning lamp goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, this indicates a low additive level.


On a new vehicle, the first par ticlefilter regeneration operations may be accompanied by a "burning" smell, which is perfectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of the vehicle at very low speed or at idle, you may, in exceptional circumstances,notice the emission of water vapour at the exhaust on acceleration. This does not affect the behaviour of the vehicle or the environment.
The 100% electric mode is not available during regeneration of the par ticle emissions filter.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Oil filter

Replace the oil filter each time the engine oil is changed.
Refer to the ser vicing and warrantybooklet for details of the replacement
interval for this component.
Re
fer to the ser vicing and warrantybooklet for details of the replacement
inter vals for these components.
Dependin
g on the environment (e.g. dustyatmosphere) and the use of the vehicle (e.g. city driving), replace them twice as often if necessary. y A clogged passenger compartment filter mayhave an adverse effect on the per formance
of the air conditioning system and generate undesirable odours.
