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, motor way, 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.


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.



Drive smoothly
Stay in the "eco" zonedisplayed 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. Themovement 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.

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 transformer conver ts the 200 V of the battery pack to 12 V, to power the vehicle's ancillarysystems.
Th
e Stop & Start 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 electronicgearbox - 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








Hybrid4 mode selector
The 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 thecorresponding indicator.
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.

AUTOmode, for normal use and optimised fuelconsumption. On star ting the vehicle: with the gear lever in position N, press the brake pedal and press
the STA R T/STOP switch to activate the hybrid system.
This lamp comes on when the vehicle is ready
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 case (in particular, the time needed for pre-heating the
Diesel engine in cold weather).









Ready lamp
When stationary, ensure that you press the STA R T/STOP switch and check that the Readylamp is off when leaving thevehicle. Otherwise the hybrid systemwill still be active. See paragraph "Under bonnet precautions/warnings".

ZEV mode *
(all electric)

Zero emissions vehicle operation is assured10 0 % by electric drive.
This mode forces silent running
at moderate speeds.
It
can be activated when therequired conditions are met, particularly if the state of charge of high voltage battery is sufficient (4 bars minimum).

Auto mode
It automatically manages the operation of theDiesel 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 particular, 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 "zeroemissions" electric running, dependingon the state of charge of the battery, if the conditions specific to the vehicle are met
and if acceleration is moderate,

- supplements the Diesel en
gine
when
moving off and changing gear, duringacceleration and when traction from the front wheels is inadequate (it automatically adds4 wheel drive),

- is no longer active above 70 mph (120 km/h).



*
ZEV: Z
ero Emissions Vehicle.
This standardmode to use in preference
is activated automaticallyon starting the hybrid system.

Automatic restarting of the Diesel engine or ZEV
mode NOT available
- when maintaining a comfortabletemperature 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 emissionsfilter, for around 5 to 10 minutes every 300 miles (500 km) (or less for extended urban running. )- in certain engine temperature conditions or requirements, such as an enginetemperature that is too low for the ambientconditions. In ZEV mode, these conditions lead to animmediate change to AUTO mode.The Diesel engine is switched off automatically as soon as these conditions are lifted.
The main conditions are:


- if the gear lever is in position M,

- if the steering mounted gear change controlpaddles are operated,

- if the high voltage battery is not sufficientlycharged. At least 4 bars in ZEV mode soas to provide a cer tain distance (in AUTO mode, electric operation is available morebriefly with a lower state of charge),

- at 18 mph (30 km/h) after setting off (if the internal combustion engine has not already star ted since setting off),

- when the vehicle is on a slope, to retain engine braking from the internal combustion engine when the battery is fullycharged,

- when using engine braking from the internal combustion engine,

- when the fuel level enters the reserve zone(in the event of high consumption of this reser ve, inhibition of ZEV can continue for some time after refuelling).


Your vehicle is fitted with the most effectiveemissions control systems, in par ticular theParticle Emissions Filter (PEF). At regular inter vals your Diesel engine will produce energy for the self-cleaning of this filter.
During this PEF regeneration phase, electric running is purposely made unavailable.

Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2emissions.
Optimise the use of your
gearbox
Use automatic mode Aas much as possible
as this optimises gear changes to suit the circumstances.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine braking rather than the brake pedal, and press the accelerator progressively. These practices contribute towards a reduction in fuel consumption and CO2 emissions and also helps reduce
the background traffic noise.
If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of the system at speeds above 25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffic is flowing well.


Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it byopening 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 canhelp keep the temperature in the passenger compartment down (sun roof and windowblinds...). Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic digital regulation, as soon as thedesired temperature is attained. Switch off the demisting and defrostingcontrols, if not automatic.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.


Switch off the headlamps and front foglampswhen the level of light does not requiretheir use.

Avoid running the Diesel engine when stationary, par ticularly in winter; your vehicle will warm up much faster while driving.

As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia devices (film, music, videogame...), you will contribute towards limitingthe consumption of electrical energy, and soof fuel.
Disconnect your por table devices beforeleaving the vehicle.



Control the use of your electrical equipment

Hybrid system
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...). Use a roof box inpreference.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 the3 rd
cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any over flow.

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 settledown to a consistent average.
