35Hybrid system
Hybrid4 mode selector
The selector allows the user to choose between 4 drive modes for the vehicle. Turn the dial to the right or left; the mode selected is confirmed by illumination of the corresponding i n d i c a t o r.
ZEV mode, to force electric running.
SPORT mode, to make use of the maximum per formance of the vehicle.
4WD mode, to force the vehicle into 4x4 mode.
AUTO mode, for normal use and optimised fuel consumption.
On starting the vehicle: with the gear selector in position N , press the brake pedal and press the START/STOP button to activate the hybrid system. This lamp comes on when the vehicle is ready to move off ("Auto" mode is on by default) and so the driver can press the accelerator. This lamp comes on more or less instantly but may take a few seconds in some cases (in particular, the time needed for pre-heating the Diesel engine in cold weather or, for example, in energy economy mode, ...).
Ready lamp
With the vehicle stationary, press the START/STOP button and check that the Ready lamp is off when leaving the vehicle, other wise the hybrid system will still be active.
For more information, refer to the section on "Underbonnet precautions / warnings".

37Hybrid system
Sport mode
(Diesel and
electric)
4WD mode **
(Diesel and
electric)
This mode allows more dynamic driving by providing additional performance . Vehicle acceleration and pick-up are maximised by using the capacity of the electric motor, supplementing the power of the Diesel engine. This mode manages the progressiveness of the accelerator, the electronic gearbox and the use of the electric motor. In Sport mode: - The electric motor can be used up to 70 mph (120 km/h).
This mode provides additional traction *** at low speed by driving all 4 wheels of the vehicle continuously: the Diesel engine (front wheel drive) and the electric motor (rear wheel drive) operate simultaneously and permanently. Their coupling is managed electronically to optimise traction on slippery sur faces. In 4WD mode: - Power for the electric motor is provided, if needed, by the alternator-starter motor of the front engine. The Diesel engine operates continuously. - The additional traction from the electric motor is available up to 75 mph (120 km/h).
In ZEV mode: - Range and acceleration capacity are limited. The maximum speed possible is around 36 mph (60 km/h). - Under high load or a priority requirement causing the start of the Diesel engine, the system changes automatically to AUTO mode.
If the conditions do not allow this mode, a message that the "electric mode is not currently available" appears in the screen. The ZEV warning lamp flashes for a few seconds then goes off and the selector comes on in AUTO.
This mode should be used on snow covered roads or difficult ground (mud, sand, ...). In this mode, in severe conditions and if the circumstances allow, it is recommended that you accelerate strongly to ensure that you move off and avoid any risk of getting stuck. The addition of 4WD traction is available whatever: - the state of charge of the traction battery, - the altitude.
For more information on "Automatic restarting of the Diesel engine or ZEV mode not available", refer to the corresponding section.
** 4WD: 4 Wheel Drive. *** This mode will be even more effective if
suitable tyres are fitted (winter tyres in particular).

Hybrid modes
1. Hybrid mode selected (AUTO, ZEV, SPORT, 4WD). 2. Messages, e.g.: "Zero Emission" if the Diesel engine is off (0 g/km CO2).
Operation / Energy flows
6. The Diesel engine supplies the battery (if needed). 7. Arrow from left to right: the battery powers the electric motor (when the electric motor is operating). Arrow from right to left: the electric motor/generator recharges the battery (energy recovery phases). 8. The Diesel engine drives the front wheels. 9. The electric motor drives the rear wheels.
Vehicle infrastructure
3. Diesel engine. 4. Traction battery state of charge. 5. Electric Motor/Generator.
Information on the active hybrid mode, arrows for energy flows and the state of charge of the battery, is displayed in the instrument panel screen or the screen.

Car washing machine or tunnel
Some car washing machines or tunnels (where the vehicle is moved for wards on a travelling track) require that the parking brake be "released" during the wash.
With the hybrid system active, Ready lamp on, parking brake released: - Place the gear selector in position N . - Switch off the engine (press on START/STOP). The parking brake is applied automatically and the Ready lamp goes off in the instrument panel. - Switch on the ignition again (press on START/STOP) without your foot on the brake pedal. The Ready lamp remains off. - Release the parking brake using the manual control on the centre console, while keeping your foot on the brake pedal. - Switch off the ignition (press on START/STOP without your foot on the brake pedal) checking that the parking brake
remains released.
If the Diesel engine is not running, it restarts. If the Diesel engine is running, it remains running without time limit.
With the hybrid system active, Ready lamp on, parking brake released: - Place the gear selector in position N (Auto or Sport mode). - Press the brake pedal then the ECO OFF button.
Car washing machines or tunnels in which the Diesel engine must be switched off. Car washing machines or tunnels in which the Diesel engine must not be switched off.
