9Familiarisation
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.

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".

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.

Dipstick
Refer to the "Checks" section to locate the
dipstick and the oil filler cap on your engine.
There are
2 marks on the dipstick:
System which informs the driver whether theengine oil level is correct or not.
This information is indicated for a few secondswhen the ignition is switched on, after theservice information.
The level read will only be correct if the vehicle is on level ground and the engine has been off for more than30 minutes.
