fuel pressure Peugeot 508 RXH 2014 Owner's Manual

508RXH_en_Chap00b_vue-ensemble_ed01-2014
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.

eco-driving
eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
Eco-driving suited to your
HYbrid4 vehicle
use gear selector position A, as this
optimises gear changes to suit the
circumstances, and the AUTO mode of the
HYbrid4 mode selector.
When moving off, accelerate normally
up to the desired speed ( POWER zone
between 20 and 40 %).
At steady speeds, drive gently with small
movements of the accelerator pedal ( ECO or
CHARGE zone), run in electric mode as often
as possible when driving at low speed.
Anticipate the need to slow down and use
engine braking ( CHARGE zone), so as to
make use of free energy recovery while
keeping light pressure on the accelerator
pedal.
Control the use of your
electrical equipment
Before moving off, if the passenger
compartment is too warm, ventilate it by
opening the windows and air vents before
using the air conditioning.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the windows
and leave the air vents open.
Remember to make use of equipment that can
help keep the temperature in the passenger
compartment down (sun roof and window
blinds...).
Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has
automatic digital regulation, as soon as the
desired temperature is attained.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting
controls, if not automatic.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch off the headlamps and front foglamps
when the level of light does not require
their


use. Avoid running the Diesel engine when
stationary, particularly in winter; your vehicle
will warm up much faster while driving.
As a passenger, if you avoid connecting
your multimedia devices (film, music, video
game...), you will contribute towards limiting
the consumption of electrical energy, and so
of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices before
leaving the vehicle.
Hybrid system

31
508RXH_en_Chap00c_systeme-hybride_ed01-2014
Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place
the heaviest items in the bottom of the boot,
as close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and
reduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack,
bicycle carrier, trailer...). u
s
e 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 aperture,
driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
-

b
efore a long journey,
-

a
t each change of season,
-

a
fter a long period out of use. When refuelling, do not continue after the
3rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any over flow.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine
oil, oil filter, air filter, passenger compartment
filter...) and observe the schedule of
operations recommended in the warranty and
maintenance record. At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after
the first 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you
will see the fuel consumption settle down to a
consistent average.
.
Hybrid system

123
508RXH_en_Chap04_conduite_ed01-2014
gear shift indicator
System which reduces fuel consumption by advising the driver to change up.
Operation
the system intervenes only when driving
economically.
Depending on the driving situation and your
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise
you to skip one or more gears. You can
follow this instruction without engaging the
intermediate gears.
the
gear engagement recommendations must
not be considered compulsory. In fact, the
configuration of the road, the amount of traffic
and safety remain determining factors when
choosing the best gear.
t
her
efore, the driver
remains responsible for deciding whether or not
to follow the advice given by the system.
th

is function cannot be deactivated.ex ample:
- I n manual mode, you are in third gear.
-

Y
ou press the accelerator pedal
moderately.
-
t
h
e system may suggest that you engage
a higher gear, if appropriate.
th

e information appears in the instrument
panel in the form of an arrow accompanied by
the suggested gear. In the case of driving which makes
particular demands on the performance
of the engine (firm pressure on the
accelerator pedal, for example, when
overtaking...), the system will not
recommend a gear change.
th

e system never suggests:
-
e

ngaging first gear,
-
enga

ging reverse gear,
-
enga

ging a lower gear.

Tyre under-inflation detection
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.the system continuously monitors the pressures of the four tyres, as soon as the vehicle is moving.
th

e tyre under-inflation detection
system is an aid to driving which does
not replace the need for the driver to be
vigilant or to drive responsibly.
A pressure sensor is located in the valve of
each tyre (except the spare wheel).
th

e system triggers an alert if a drop in
pressure is detected in one or more tyres.
th

is system does not avoid the need
to check the tyre pressures regularly
(including the spare wheel) and before
a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres
adversely affects road holding,
extends braking distances and causes
premature tyre wear, particularly under
arduous conditions (vehicle loaded,
high speed, long journey). Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
th

e tyre pressures for your vehicle can
be found on the tyre pressure label (see
the "Identification markings" section).
th

e tyre pressures must be checked
when the tyres cold (vehicle stopped
for 1 hour or after driving for less then
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speed).
Other wise, add 0.3 bar to the values
indicated on the label.
