Familiarisation





For economical driving, caring for the environment


The fuel consumptionof 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, flowing, heavy traffic, …) and the speed.


Main recommendations for driving economically


Hybrid mode selector

To optimise fuel consumption, use the Automodeof the selector whenever possible (the mode is activated
automatically when starting) including for urban journeys.
This mode optimises the use of the energy sources (internal combustion engine and/or electric) contrary to other modes, which are for use in par ticular cases.


Gear lever
Use the automatic
mode A
as much as possible as this optimises gear changes to suit the requirements.


Drive smoothly
Stay in the "eco" zone
displayed in the energy consumption / generation indicator: accelerate gently, drive atsteady speeds using the speed limiter or cruise control as soon as possible. Use the "charge" zone: anticipate the need to slow down by taking your foot off the accelerator rather than
braking. The movement of the energy consumption / generation indicator needle (into the "charge" zone), shows
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 energyconsumption. Refer to the "Multifunction screens" section.


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, …).
Obser ve the recommendations on checks (regular check of tyre pressures, correct tyre pressures, …) and routine servicing.

Monitoring
On switching on, the dial needles go to the extent of their travel then return to 0.
A.With the ignition on, the needle should
indicate the fuel remaining.B.With the engine running, the associatedlow level warning lamp should go off.

Instrument panel

With the ignition on, the orange and red
warning lamps come on. 2.With the engine running, these warninglamps should go off.
If a warning lamp remains on, refer to the page concerned.

Hybrid system
The electronic power super visor - 4automatically manages the operation of the two power units(Diesel and electric) to provide the lowest consumption.
An inver ter and a transformer are needed to manage the electric power.
The inver ter acts on the torque of the electric motor, by regulating the current coming from the high
voltage battery pack. Its operating range is between 150 and 270 volts.
The trans
former conver ts the 200 V of the battery pack to 12 V, to power the vehicle's ancillary
systems.
Th
e Stop & Star t system - 5
allows the Diesel engine to be put into standby during stops (traffic
lights, a stop, or in a traffic jam, for example) or during phases of running in all-electric mode.
The stopping and restar ting of the Diesel engine is done in a way that is instantaneous and
transparent for the driver.
Th
e electronic gearbox - 6provides, in automatic mode, significant savings in fuel consumption compared to a conventional manual gearbox, thanks to its electronic control system.
It also offers improved driving pleasure with the possibility at any time of choosing the gear changing mode: automatic or manual, using the paddles located behind the steering wheel.

Hybrid system














Ready lamp

With the gear selector in position N, press the
brake pedal and star t the hybrid system.
This lamp comes on when the vehicle is read
y
to move off ("Auto" mode is on by default) andso the driver can press the accelerator.
This lamp comes on more or less instantlybut may take a few seconds in some cases (in par ticular, the time needed for pre-heating
the Diesel engine in cold weather or in energy economy mode, for example, ...).








HYbrid4 mode selector
AUTOmode, for normal use and optimised fuelconsumption.
ZEVmode, to force electric running.S
portmode, to make use of the maximum
performance of the vehicle.
4WDmode, to force the vehicle into 4x4 mode.



When stationary, switch off the hybridsystem and check that the Readylamp is off when you leave the vehicle,otherwise the hybrid system will remainactive. Th
e 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 indicator.

For more information, refer to the "Underbonnet precautions / warnings" section.

Hybrid system

Auto mode
It automatically manages the operation of the
Diesel engine and the electric motor, according
to inherent vehicle parameters, traffic
conditions and driving style so as to optimise
the vehicle's fuel consumption.In par ticular, this mode activates "zero emissions" electric runningwhen theconditions allow.
In auto mode, the electric motor
:
- can drive the vehicle on its own up
to around 36 mph
(60 km/h) in "zero
emissions" electric running, dependingon the state of charge of the battery, if the conditions specific to the vehicle are metand if acceleration is moderate, -supplements the Diesel enginewhen moving off and changing gear, during acceleration and when traction from thefront wheels is inadequate (it automaticallyadds4 wheel drive ),
- is no longer active above 70 mph (120 km / h).

ZEV mode *
(all electric)

Zero emissions vehicle operation is assured
10 0 % by electric drive.
This mode forces silent runningat moderatespeeds.
If the conditions do not allow this mode
, amessage that the "electric mode is not currentlyavailable" appears in the screen. The ZEV
warning lamp flashes for a few seconds then
goes off and the selector comes on in AUTO.
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 star t of the Diesel engine, thesystem changes automatically to AUTO mode.


This standard
mode to use inpreferenceis activated automaticallyon star ting the hybrid system.


For more information on "Automaticrestarting of the Diesel engine or ZEV mode not available", refer to the corresponding section.


*
ZEV: Z
ero Emissions Vehicle.
It can be activated when therequired conditions are met, particularly if the state of charge of high voltage battery is sufficient (from 4 bars).

Hybrid system

Sport mode
(Diesel and
electric)

This mode allows more dynamic driving byproviding additional performance. Vehicle acceleration and pick-up aremaximised by using the capacity of the electricmotor, supplementing the power of the Dieselengine.
This mode manages the progressiveness of the
accelerator, the electronic gearbox and the useof the electric motor.
In Spor t mode:


-
The electric motor can be used up to
70 mph (120 km/h).
4WD mode **
(Diesel and
electric)
This mode provides additional traction*** at low speed by driving all 4 wheels of the vehiclecontinuously: the Diesel engine (front wheel
drive) and the electric motor (rear wheel drive)
operate simultaneously and permanently.
Their couplin
g is managed electronically to
optimise traction on slippery surfaces.
In 4WD mode:
- Power for the electric motor is provided,
if needed, b
y the alternator-star ter 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).

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 isavailable whatever:


- the state of charge of the traction battery,

- the altitude.
Be aware of the ground clearance of your vehicle: around 184 mm (with the vehicle in working order: driver only and the fuel tank full) in ideal conditions.
This value will vary with vehicle load,the nature of the ground surface and the surroundings.
If the driver considers that the vehicle
can traverse an obstacle, they assumeentire responsibility for this.
**
4WD: 4 Wheel Drive.
***
This mode will be even more effective if suitable tyres are fitted (winter tyres in
particular
).
