2011.5 Citroen DS5 HYBRID4 RHD charging

29Hybrid system
Main parts of the Hybrid4 system

The HDi Diesel engine - 1
, located at the front, drives the front wheels and provides most of the power needed to drive the vehicle.
It is fitted with the Stop & Start
system - 5
which recharges the batteries and provides additional power when needed (in 4x4 mode).

Th
e electric motor - 2
, located at the rear, drives the rear wheels on its own, or supplements the Diesel engine, according to the hybrid mode selected.
It recovers energy and charges the batteries during phases of deceleration of the vehicle and is
active up to 70 mph (120 km/h).

A 200 V NI-MH high voltage battery - 3
, provides a source of energy for the rear electric motor.
Its charging rate is managed automatically by the vehicle during phases of deceleration.
It is located in a compar tment in the boot, access to which is restricted to trained ser vice
t
echnicians.

The batter
y state of chargeis indicated by 8 horizontal or vertical bars (depending on the screen).

Th
e conventional battery, located under the bonnet, powers the vehicle's 12 V systems. It is yrecharged automatically by the high voltage network.

200 V high voltage battery


The Ni-MH (Nickel Metal Hydride) type 200 V high voltage battery is located below the boot
floor, close to the electric motor. It cannot be
recharged from a mains supply.
Charging
The battery is charged when the vehicle
decelerates, the electric motor then becominga generator and conver ts kinetic energy into
electrical energy (except if the speed of the
vehicle is above 70 mph (120 km/h)).
The battery is not recharged from a mains
supply.
The battery may also be charged automatically
when required by the Stop & Start system of
the Diesel engine.
This recover
y allows the use of "free" energy.
The battery charging time is very short and iscontinuous.
A discharged battery (following ZEV running or high load, for example) will quickly return to
a state of charge sufficient for full operation of
the different hybrid modes.
The recharge takes place automatically
when driving .
The energy recovery can be faster during deceleration.
To preser ve the ser vice life of thebattery, the level of charge never falls below 20 %, even if a level of 0 bars is displayed after ZEV running.

Lighting left on audible signal
An audible signal when a front door
is opened warns the driver that the vehicle's exterior lighting is on, with theignition off and in manual lighting mode.
In this case, switching off the lighting stops the audible signal.
With the ignition off, if the dipped headlamps remain on, the vehicle goes into "ECO" mode to avoid discharging the battery.

In some weather conditions (e.g. low temperature or humidity), the presence of misting on the internal sur face of theglass of the headlamps and rear lampsis normal; it disappears after the lamps have been on for a few minutes.

The daytime runninglamps can be activated and deactivated via the configuration menu.



The lighting goes off when you switchoff the ignition, but you can always switch it on again using the lighting control stalk.
Daytime running lamps
(LEDs)
They come on when the engine is star ted.
Depending on the country of sale or whererequired by regulations, they are used for:
- daytime running lamps in day mode andsidelamps in night mode (they are brighter
when daytime running lamps), or
- sidelamps in day and night mode.

Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between theoccupants and the airbags (a child, pet,
object...). This could hamper the operation of the airbags or injure the occupants. After an accident or if the vehicle has beenstolen or broken into, have the airbagsystems checked. All work on the airbag system must be carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned areobser ved, a risk of injury or of minor burnsto the head, chest or arms when an airbag is deployed cannot be ruled out. The baginflates almost instantly (within a few milliseconds) then deflates within the sametime discharging the hot gas via openings provided for this purpose.
Lateral airbags
Use only approved covers on the seats, compatible with the deployment the lateral airbags. For information on the range of seatcovers suitable for your vehicle, you can contact a CITROËN dealer (see "Practical information - § Accessories"). Do not fix or attach anything to the seat backs (clothing...). This could cause injuryto the chest or arms if the lateral airbag isdeployed.Do not sit with the upper par t of the body anynearer to the door than necessary.

Front airbags

Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its spokes or resting your hands on the centre part of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet on thedashboard.
If possible, do not smoke as deployment of the airbags can cause burns or the risk of injury from a cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or hit it violently.
Curtain airbags
Do not fix or attach anything to the roof. This could cause injury to the head if the cur tain airbag is deployed. If fitted on your vehicle, do not remove thegrab handles installed on the roof, they play a par t in securing the cur tain airbags.

For the airbags to be fully effective, observe the following safety rules:

12 V battery Procedure for charging your battery when it is flat or for starting the engine using another battery.
The presence of this label indicatesthe use of a 12 V lead-acid battery withspecial technology and specification, for which the involvement of a CITROËN dealer or qualified workshop is requiredwhen replacing or disconnecting thebattery.
Failure to observe this recommendation may cause premature wear of thebattery. The battery is located under the bonnet.
To
gain access to it:)
open the bonnet using the interior releaselever, then the exterior safety catch, )
remove the plastic cover to gain access to
the two terminals,) unclip the fusebox to remove the battery,
if necessary.

Access to the battery
)Raise the locking tab fully.




Disconnecting the cables

Reconnectin
g the cables
)Position the open clip 1of the cable on the
positive terminal (+) of the battery. )Press ver tically on the clip 1
to position it correctly against the battery.)Lock the clip by spreading the positioning lug and then lowering the tab 2.

Do not force the tab as locking will not be possible if the clip is not positionedcorrectly; star t the procedure again.

Before doing any work on your vehicle,switch off the ignition ( Ready
lamp off)to avoid any risk of injury resulting fromautomatic operation of the engine. Y
our vehicle is fitted with a conventional 12 Vbattery, located under the bonnet, in addition
to the high voltage battery used by the hybrid
system.
In cer tain conditions, if the 12 V batter
y is
too discharged to activate the hybrid system, recharging from another conventional 12 V
battery is possible.
Do not carry out this recharge if the Readylamp is on.

Practical information

After refitting the battery, the Stop &Start system will only be active after several hours depending on the climaticconditions and the state of charge of the battery (up to about 8 hours).
)Connect the red cable to the positive
terminal (+) of the flat battery A , then to the positive terminal (+) of the slave battery B .)Connect one end of the green or blackcable to the negative terminal (-) of the slave battery B.

QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
With the engine off, the system switches off after a few minutes of use.When the en
gine is switched off, the system's operating time depends on
the battery charge.
The switch-o
ff is normal: the system switches to economy mode and
switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery.
Start the vehicle's engine to increase the batterycharge.
Pla
yback of my USB memory stick starts only
after a very long wait (around 2 to 3 minutes).
Some fi les supplied with the memory stick may greatly slow down access
to reading the memory stick (multiplication by 10 of the catalogue time). Delete the fi les supplied with the memory stickand limit the number of sub-folders in the fi le structure on the memory stick.

When I connect myiPhone as telephone and
to the USB port at thesame time, I am unable
to play the music fi les. When the iPhone connects automaticall
y as a telephone, it forces the
streaming function. The streaming function takes the place of the USBfunction which is then not useable. Disconnect and reconnect to the USB port
(the USB function takes priority over streaming).
