Ready lamp
With the gear selector in position N, press the
brake pedal and start the hybrid system.
th
is 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.
th
is 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 in energy
economy mode, for example, ...).

When stationary, switch off the hybrid
system and check that the Ready

"AUTO" mode
It automatically manages the operation of the
Diesel engine and the electric motor, according
to vehicle parameters, traffic conditions and
driving style so as to optimise the vehicle's
fuel consumption.
th
is mode activates "zero emissions"
electric running when the conditions allow.
In "A

" mode, the electric motor :
-
c

emissions" electric running, depending
on the state of charge of the battery, if the
conditions specific to the vehicle are met
and if acceleration is moderate,

moving off and changing gear, during

front wheels is inadequate (it automatically
adds 4 wheel drive ),

I
t is no longer active above 75 mph (120 km/h).
"ZEV" mode
(all electric)
"Zero emissions vehicle" operation is assured
100 % by electric drive.
th
is mode forces silent running at moderate
speeds. If the conditions do not allow this mode,
the message "electric mode is not currently
available" appears in the screen.

It can be activated when the
required conditions are met,
particularly if the state of

sufficient (from 4 bars).

"SPORT" 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.
th
is mode manages the response of the
accelerator, the electronic gearbox and the use
of the electric motor.
In "SPOR
t" m
ode:
-
t
h
e electric motor can be used up to
75 mph (120 km/h).
"4WD" mode*
(Diesel and
electric)
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.
th
eir coupling is managed electronically to
optimise traction when grip is poor.
In 4WD mode:
-
P
ower for the electric motor is provided, if
necessary, by the alternator-starter motor
of the front engine.
t
h
e Diesel engine
operates continuously.
-
t
h
e additional traction from the electric
motor is available up to 75 mph (120 km/h).th is 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 facilitate moving off and
reduce the risk of getting stuck.
th
e addition of "4WD" traction is
available whatever:
-
t
he state of charge of the traction
battery,
-
t
he 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.
th
is value will vary with vehicle load,
the nature of the ground sur face and
the surroundings.
If the driver considers that the vehicle
can traverse an obstacle, they assume
entire responsibility for this.
* "4WD": 4 Wheel Drive.
**
t
h
is mode will be even more effective if tyres
more suitable for the conditions are fitted
("winter" tyres in particular). When driving on flooded roads or when
crossing a ford, drive at walking pace.

energy consumption / generation indicator
the indicator dial provides real time information
on the total power used, combining electric and
Diesel.
It comprises three main zones.
CHARGE zone
Zone which indicates that the vehicle is
in electrical energy recovery phase: on
deceleration, braking (partially or particularly
with your foot off the accelerator, to use
in preference as this gives better energy
rec over y).
th
is allows the high voltage battery to be
recharged using "free" energy which can then
be reused for future energy requirements.
POWER zone
Zone which indicates an increased cumulative
power demand from your hybrid vehicle,
taking account of the combined power available
from the Diesel engine and the electric motor.
Zone which indicates that the vehicle is
optimising its energy consumption , electric,
Diesel or a combination of both.
th
is zone corresponds to phases of electric
running as well as to phases of optimum use of
the Diesel engine, which are easily accessible
with a suitable driving style (smooth
"eco-citizen" driving).ECO zone

Average consumption over the last 5 minutes.
Resetting the
history
With the hybrid system active, when trip 2
displayed, press the control for 2 seconds to
reset the history to zero.
For more information on the trip computer, refer to the corresponding section. "60 % Hybrid
us
e" corresponds to 60 % of the cumulative
running time with the addition of the hybrid system and
40 % of the time with the Diesel engine only (with no
contribution from the hybrid system).
