PEUGEOT 3008 HYBRID 4 2011 Owner's Guide

How to start your vehicle


- Ensure that the gear lever is in posi-
tion N
.

- Switch the ignition on by turning the
key to position 2
.

- Press fi rmly on the brake pedal, turn
the ignition key to position 3
to start
up the hybrid system, then release
the key.


- The Ready
lamp and the instrument
panel come on. The power meter
needle sweeps through its travel in-
dicating that the hybrid system is
active, confi rmed by a message
"hybrid system active"
; the dial in
the centre console is in AUTO
mode
(default mode for starting).

- The hybrid system determines
whether it is necessary to start the
Diesel engine.


- With the brake still applied, move
the gear lever to position A
to go
forwards or R
(by lifting the lever
slightly) for reverse.

- Lift your foot off the brake pedal, you
can move off.

- The parking brake is released
automatically as you move off, if
confi gured to do so (otherwise, re-
lease the parking brake manually).

How to stop your vehicle andthe hybrid system



- Apply the brake until the vehicle
comes to a complete stop.

- Preferably, place the gear lever in
position N
.

- Turn the ignition key to position 1
,
the parking brake is applied auto-
matically if confi gured to do so.

- Otherwise apply the parking brake
manually.


In most cases the vehicle
starts in electric mode. This
means that your 3008 HYbrid4 makes no noise. So be very
careful of pedestrians as they will
not hear you coming.

30

On starting the vehicle: with the gear le-
ver in position N
, press the brake pedal
and turn the ignition key 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 in-
stantly but may take a few seconds in
some case (in particular, the time need-
ed for pre-heating the Diesel engine in
cold weather).
READY LAMP


When stationary, ensure that
you switch off the ignition and
the Ready
lamp is off when
leaving the vehicle. Otherwise
the hybrid system will remain active.
See paragraph "Under bonnet pre-
cautions/warnings".

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 confi rmed by illumination of
the corresponding indicator.


ZEV
mode, to force electric running
only.

Sport
mode, to make use of the maxi-
mum performance of the vehicle. Auto mode



4WD
mode, to force the vehicle into 4x4 mode.



It automatically manages the operation
of the Diesel engine and the electric
motor, according to inherent vehicle pa-
rameters, traffi c conditions and driving
style so as to optimise the vehicle's
fuel consumption
.
In particular, this mode activates "zero
emissions" electric running
when the
conditions allow.
In auto mode, the electric motor
:


- can drive the vehicle on its own up
to 36 mph (60 km/h) in "zero emis-
sions" electric running, depending
on the state of charge of the battery,
if the conditions specifi c to the ve-
hicle are met and if acceleration is
moderate,

-

supplements the Diesel engine

when moving off and changing gear,
during acceleration and when trac-
tion from the front wheels is inade-
quate (it automatically adds
4 wheel
drive
),


- is no longer active above 70 mph
(120 km/h).



AUTO
mode, for normal use and opti-
mised fuel consumption.


This standard
mode to use in
preference
is activated auto-
matically
on starting the hybrid
system.

32

ZEV mode *(all electric)Sport mode (Diesel and electric)

4WD mode ** (Diesel and electric)


Zero emissions vehicle operation is as-
sured 100 % by electric drive.
This mode forces silent running
at
moderate speeds.
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 progressive-
ness of the accelerator, the automatic
gear control 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 trac-
tion

*** 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) op-
erate simultaneously and permanently.
Their coupling is managed electronically
to optimise traction on slippery surfaces,
diffi cult terrain or severe conditions:
deep snow, mud, sand, …
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 elec-
tric motor is available up to 70 mph
(120 km/h).




*
ZEV: Zero Emissions Vehicle. In ZEV mode:


- the accelerator control is progres-
sive.

- Range and acceleration capacity
are limited. The maximum speed
possible is 36 mph (60 km/h).

- Under high load or a priority require-
ment causing the start of the Diesel
engine, the system changes auto-
matically to AUTO mode.


It can be activated when
the required conditions are
met, particularly if the state
of charge of high voltage
battery is suffi cient (4 bars minimum).

If the conditions allow, a mes-
sage "ZEV mode unavailable"
appears in the screen, the
ZEV warning lamp fl ashes for
a few seconds then goes off
and the selector comes on in AUTO.

**
4WD: 4 Wheel Drive.

***
This mode will be even more effec-
tive if suitable tyres are fi tted (winter
tyres in particular).

POWER METER
The instrument panel provides real time information on the total power used,
combining electric and Diesel.
It comprises three main zones:
ECO zone

Zone which indicates that the vehicle
is optimising its energy consump-
tion
, electric, Diesel or a combination
of both.
POWER zone
Zone which indicates an increased cu-
mulative power demand
from your
hybrid vehicle, taking account of the
combined capacities of the Diesel en-
gine and the electric motor.
CHARGE ZONE

Zone which indicates that the vehicle is
in electrical energy recovery
phase: on
deceleration, braking or foot off the ac-
celerator, ...
This allows the high voltage battery
to be recharged using "free" energy

which can then be reused
for future en-
ergy requirements.

This zone corresponds to phases of elec-
tric running as well as phases of optimum
use of the Diesel engine, which are eas-
ily accessible with a suitable driving style
(smooth "eco-citizen" driving).

Examples of displays

On starting and when stationary
there is no fl ow of energy (the Stop & Start system
stops and restarts the Diesel engine automatically).
In auto mode, priority is given to the electric motor.

Energy recovery
During this phase (deceleration, braking, foot off the
accelerator, … all modes), the battery is recharged by
the electric motor/generator, itself driven by the rear
wheels.

100 % electric
In all electric running (AUTO or ZEV modes), only the
electric motor, powered by the battery, drives the rear
wheels.
The display of "Zero Emissions" indicates that the Diesel
engine is off and the vehicle is producing no CO
2.

36
Automatic restarting of the Diesel engine
Various conditions can lead to restarting
or maintaining the Diesel engine, princi-
pally:


- during sustained and sharp ac-
celeration ,


- to maintain a comfortable tempera-
ture in the passenger compartment,

- when demisting,

- if the high voltage battery is not
suffi ciently charged,

-
in mountainous conditions (altitude),


- in certain temperature conditions
for the engine, such as a low am-
bient temperature (below 0 °C),

- if the temperature of the hybrid
system is too high,

- when using the vehicle after pro-
longed parking in a sunny area,

- when using the vehicle on a steep
slope,

- when regenerating the particle
emissions fi lter,

- fuel level too low.
In ZEV mode, these conditions lead
to an immediate change to AUTO
mode.
The Diesel engine is switched off auto-
matically as soon as these conditions
are lifted.
ECO OFF SWITCH


This function prevents the Diesel engine
being switched off and so ensures that
a comfortable temperature can be main-
tained in the passenger compartment
(air conditioning running continuously).
On pressing the switch, the engine
restarts immediately.
To return to normal operation, press the
switch again.
After switching off the ignition, the vehi-
cle will return to normal operation (lamp
in the switch off).

FOR ECONOMICAL DRIVING, CARING FOR THE ENVIRONMENT
Main recommendations for driving economically

Drive smoothly
The fuel consumption of a vehicle varies greatly:


- according to the driver's style of driving (moderate, aggressive, fast, ...),

-
according to the type of journeys made (urban, main road, motorway, fl owing,
heavy traffi c, …) and the speed.


Hybrid mode selector
To optimise fuel consumption, use the
Auto
mode
of the selector whenever
possible (the mode is activated auto-
matically when starting) including for
urban journeys.
This mode optimises the use of the ener-
gy sources (internal combustion engine
and/or electric) contrary to other modes,
which are for use in particular cases.


Gear lever
Use the automatic mode A as much as
possible as this optimises gear changes
to suit the requirements.
Stay in the "eco" zone
indicated in the
power meter: accelerate gently, drive at
steady speeds using the speed limiter
or cruise control as soon as possible.

Causes of high consumption and
checks
As with any vehicle, limit overloading,
wind resistance (windows open above
30 mph (50 km/h), roof rack, loaded or
not, …), the use of power consumers
(air conditioning, heated seats, heated
rear screen, …).
Observe the recommendations on
checks (regular check of tyre pres-
sures, correct tyre pressures, …) and
routine servicing.

Use the "charge"
zone: anticipate the
need to slow down by taking your foot
off the accelerator rather than braking.
The movement of the power meter nee-
dle (into the "charge" zone), indicates
the level of energy recovery.
Consumption history

See the impact of your style of driving
and the type of journey by reviewing
the history of your energy consumption.
