Hybrid system
Automatic restarting of the Diesel engine or NON
access to ZEV mode
The main conditions are:
- if the gear lever is in position M,
- if the steering mounted gear change control paddles are operated,
- if the high voltage battery is not sufficiently charged. At least 4 bars in ZEV mode so asto provide a cer tain distance (in AUTO mode, electric operation is available more brieflywith a lower state of charge),
- at 18 mph (30 km/h) after setting off (if the internal combustion engine has not alreadystar ted since setting off),
- when the vehicle is on a slope, to retain engine braking from the internal combustion engine when the battery is fully charged,
- when using engine braking from the internal combustion engine,
- when the fuel level enters the reser ve zone (in the event of high consumption of thisreser ve, inhibition of ZEV can continue for some time after refuelling).
- when maintaining a comfor table temperature in the passenger compar tment (air conditioning, ...),
- when using the vehicle after prolonged parking in a sunny area,
- when demisting,
- during sustained and sharp acceleration
- in mountainous conditions (altitude),
- when using the vehicle on a steep slope (car park ramp, ...),
- when regenerating the par ticle emissions filter, for around 5 to 10 minutes every300 miles (500 km)(or less for extended urban running.
- in cer tain engine temperature conditions or requirements, such as an enginetemperature that is too low for the ambient conditions.
In ZEV mode, these conditions lead to an immediate change to AUTO mode. The Diesel engine is switched off automatically as soon as these conditions are lifted.
Your vehicle is fitted with the most effective emissions control systems, inparticular the Particle Emissions Filter (PEF).
At regular intervals your Diesel engine will produce energy for the self-cleaningof this filter.
During this PEF regeneration phase,electric running is purposely madeunavailable.

Hybrid system
Limit the causes of excess
consumption
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.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations
on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in the door aper ture, 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 the
manufacturer.
When refuelling, do not continue after the 3rd
cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any overflow.
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.

Comfort
Heating and Ventilation
The air circulating in the passenger compar tment
is filtered and originates either from the outside
via the grille located at the base of the windscreen or from the inside in air recirculation mode.
Controls
The incoming air follows various routes
depending on the controls selected by
the driver, the
front passenger and rear passengers, according to the level of equipment.
The temperature control enables you to obtain
the level of comfor t required by mixing the air of
the various circuits.The air distribution control enables you toselect the air vents used in the passenger compar tment by the combined use of theassociated buttons.
The air flow control enables you to increase or reduce the speed of the ventilation fan.
These controls are grouped together on controlpanel Aon the centre console.
1.Windscreen demisting/defrosting vents.2. Front side window demisting/defrosting
vents. 3. Side adjustable air vents.
4.Central adjustable air vents. 5
. Air outlets to the front footwells.
6.Adjustable air vents for the rear passengers.
7. Air outlets to the rear footwells.
Air distribution
System which creates and maintains goodconditions of comfor t and visibility in the
vehicle's passenger compar tment.
