Hybrid system

Sport mode
(Diesel and
electric)


4WD mode **

(Diesel and
electric)
This mode allows more dynamic driving byproviding additional performance.Vehicle acceleration and pick-up are
maximised by using the capacity of the electric
motor, supplementing the power of the Diesel
engine.
This mode manages the progressiveness of theaccelerator, the electronic gearbox and the use of the electric motor.
In Sport mode:
- The electric motor can be used up to 70 mph (120 km/h).


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.
Their coupling is managed electronically tooptimise traction on slippery sur faces.
In 4WD mode:


- Power for the electric motor is provided,
i
f needed, by the alternator-star ter motor
of the front engine. The Diesel engine
operates continuously.

- The additional traction from the electricmotor is available up to 70 mph (120 km/h). In ZEV m
ode:


- the accelerator control is progressive.

- Range and acceleration capacity are
limited. The maximum speed possible is
around 36 mph (60 km/h).

- Under high load or a priority requirement causing the star t of the Diesel engine, the
system changes automatically to AUTO mode.I
f the conditions do not allow this mode, a message that the ZEV mode is not available appears in
the screen, the ZEV warning lamp
flashes for a few seconds then goes off and theselector comes on in AUTO.
This mode should be used on snowcovered roads or difficult ground (mud, sand, ...).
For more information on "Automatic
restarting of the Diesel engine", refer to the corresponding section.

**

4WD: 4 Wheel Drive.

This mode will be even more effective if suitable tyres are fitted (winter tyres inparticular).
