For economical driving, caring for the environment
the fuel consumption of a vehicle varies greatly :
- a ccording to the driver's style of driving (moderate, aggressive, fast, ...),
-
a
ccording to the type of journeys made (urban, main road, motor way, flowing, heavy traffic, …) and the speed.
Main recommendations for driving economically
Hybrid mode selector
to optimise fuel consumption, use the Auto mode of the selector whenever possible (the mode is activated
automatically when starting) including for urban journeys.
th
is mode optimises the use of the energy 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.
Drive smoothly
Stay in the "eco" zone displayed in the energy consumption / generation indicator: accelerate gently, drive at
steady 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.
t
h
e 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 energy
consumption. 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 bars, loaded
or not, …), the use of power consumers (air conditioning, heated seats, heated rear screen, …).
Observe the recommendations on checks (regular check of tyre pressures, correct tyre pressures, …) and routine
servicing.

the electronic power super visor - 4 automatically manages the operation of the two power units
(Diesel and electric) to provide the lowest consumption.
An inverter and a transformer are needed to manage the electric power.
th
e inverter 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.
th
e transformer converts the 200 V of the battery pack to 12 V, to power the vehicle's ancillary
systems.
th
e alternator-starter motor - 5 assures the Stop & Star t function which 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.
th
e stopping and restarting of the Diesel engine is done in a way that is instantaneous and
transparent for the driver.
It also provides additional charging of the batteries (4x4 mode for example or under-charged high
voltage battery).
th
e electronic gearbox - 6 provides, 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.

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, ...).

"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

O
" mode, the electric motor :
-

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,

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.

"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.

Automatic restarting of the Diesel engine or ZEV mode NOT available
the internal combustion engine may restart
or ZeV mode may not be available in the
various conditions presented below.
th
e internal combustion engine can be
switched off automatically as soon as these
conditions are lifted.
When the conditions described below cause
the vehicle to come out of Z
eV m
ode and
the Diesel engine to restart, the vehicle
automatically changes to A
u
t
O m
ode.Difficult weather conditions
and circumstances
- If certain conditions or engine temperature requirements make
it necessary (such as an engine
temperature that is too low for the
ambient conditions).
-
W
hen the battery is close to maximum
charge (for example: when going
down a long hill), because engine
recovery being no longer possible, the
internal combustion engine restarts
automatically just to provide engine
braking.
-
I
f the vehicle encounters a steep slope
(car park ramp, ...).
-
I
f the vehicle has been parked in the sun
for a prolonged period.
-
W
hen driving in mountainous conditions
(altitude).
Your vehicle is fitted with the most effective
emissions control systems, in particular the
Particle Filter (FAP).
At regular intervals your Diesel engine will
produce energy for the self-cleaning of this filter.
During this FAP regeneration phase, electric
running is purposely made unavailable and
is accompanied by a message " Electric
mode not available: FA P regeneration in
progress ".
Maintaining the performance of
the system
- When the vehicle exceeds 18 mph
(30 km/h) after moving off (if the internal
combustion engine has not already
started since the vehicle was last
star ted).
-
I
f the high voltage battery is not
sufficiently charged. A minimum of
4 bars in Z
eV m
ode so as to ensure
operation over a certain distance
(in A
utO
, electric operation is
accessible for a shorter period with a
lower level of charge).

Reducing consumption - Fuel
QuestionAnswer
How can I optimise my fuel consumption?
gi
ve preference to Auto mode as it selects in the best way the "driving energy source" to
use in order to reduce fuel consumption.
You should also adapt your driving style to the characteristics of hybrid vehicles to get the
best out of it, for example by taking your foot off the accelerator pedal rather than braking
and by anticipating decelerations (entering a built-up area, stop at traffic lights, stop at halt
signs, ...).
Why do I not manage to reduce my fuel consumption
even though I often drive in Z
eV (
Zero e
m
issions
Vehicle) mode? It is not Z
eV m
ode but Auto mode that is the most appropriate for reducing fuel
consumption, as it selects the best "driving energy source".
Z
eV m
ode (100% electric operation) can reduce fuel consumption in some cases. However,
recharging the traction battery has an energy cost.
th
is is why we recommend using Auto mode more often.
Why does the trip computer sometimes display the
bars for 28 mpg (10 litres) consumption in town?
th
e current fuel consumption displayed may appear high when the distance covered is
very low, but this generally has very little impact and the true average fuel consumption will
remain low.
In town, your hybrid retains very good fuel economy (of the order of 35% better than a
non-hybrid vehicle).
Why is my battery rarely fully charged? A partly charged battery is normal operation (4 to 5 bars on average in Auto mode).
th
is allows some capacity to be left free for the recovery for energy when going downhill or
taking when your foot off the accelerator.
Why are there so may fuel alert messages when
starting to use the reserve?
to e
ncourage you to refuel as soon as possible and avoid the loss of hybrid functions.
