2011 Peugeot 3008 Hybrid 4 engine overheat

200 V HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERY

The Ni-MH (Nickel Metal Hydride) type
200 V high voltage battery is located
below the boot fl oor, close to the electric
motor. It is not recharged from a mains
supply.
Charging


This recovery allows the use of "free"
energy.
The battery charging time is very short
and is continuous.
A discharged battery (following ZEV
running or high load, for example) will
quickly return to a state of charge suf-
fi cient for full operation of the different
hybrid modes.
The recharge takes place automati-
cally when driving
(Auto mode to be
used in preference).
It can be faster:


- by avoiding sharp acceleration,

- by recovery on deceleration: it will
take around 5 minutes on a long de-
scent.

- it will take around 10 minutes if the
Diesel engine is left idling (forced
Diesel engine operation).

The high voltage battery has an air
cooling system, comprising an air in-
take located under the left hand rear
seat and a fan behind the left hand boot
trim panel.
This system does not work continuous-
ly, but adapts the force of the ventilation
to the requirements of the battery.
If the air intake is blocked, the battery
may overheat, damaging the battery
and causing a loss of performance of
the hybrid system. VENTILATION FOR THE HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERY

For the best use of the high
voltage battery, please follow
these recommendations:


-
do not obstruct the air intake with
loose articles, otherwise, the bat-
tery may overheat, causing a loss of
performance of the hybrid system

- do not spill fl uids, as this may
cause damage to the battery.




The battery is charged when the vehicle
decelerates, the electric motor then becom-
ing a generator and converts 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.


If the high voltage battery does not re-
charge, contact a PEUGEOT dealer.


To preserve the service life of
the battery, the level of charge
never falls below 10 %, even
if a level of 0 bars is displayed
after ZEV running.

Cause



Action/Observations






Diesel engine
pre-heating


fi xed. The ignition switch is at the
2nd position (ignition on). Wait until the warning lamp has switched off
before starting.
The duration for which the warning lamp is on is
determined by the climatic conditions.


Electric
parking brake


fi xed. The electric parking brake is
applied. Release the electric parking brake to switch off
the warning lamp: with your foot on the brake
pedal, pull the electric brake control.
Observe the safety recommendations.
For further information about the electric parking
brake, refer to the "Driving" section.


Deactivation
of the
automatic
functions of
the electric
parking brake


fi xed. The "automatic application"
(on switching off the engine)
and "automatic release"
functions are deactivated or
faulty. Activate the function (according to country) via
the vehicle confi guration menu or contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.




Foot on the
brake pedal


fi xed. The brake pedal is not
pressed. With the 6-speed electronic gearbox system,
press the brake pedal to start the engine (lever
in position N
).
If you wish to release the parking brake without
pressing the brake pedal, this warning lamp will
remain on.

fl ashing. With the 6-speed electronic
gearbox system, if you hold
the vehicle on an incline
using the accelerator for too
long, the clutch overheats.
Use the brake pedal and/or the electric parking
brake.

QUESTIONANSWERSOLUTION
The stored stations donot function (no sound, 87.5 Mhz is displayed...).

An incorrect waveband is selected.
Press the BAND AST button to return to the waveband (AM, FM1, FM2, FMAST) on which thestations are stored.

The traffi c announcement(TA) is displayed. I donot receive any traffi c information.
The radio station is not part of the regional traffi c information network.
Tune to a radio station which broadcasts traffi c information.

The quality of receptionof the radio station listened to graduallydeteriorates or the stored stations do not function(no sound, 87.5 Mhz is displayed...).
The vehicle is too far from the transmitter used by the station listenedto or there is no transmitter in the geographical area through which the vehicle is travelling.
Activate the RDS function to enable the system to check whether there is a more powerful transmitter in the geographical area.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...) block reception, including in RDS mode. This phenomenon is normal and does not indicate a failure of the audio equipment.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example when goingthrough a car wash or into an underground car park).
Have the aerial checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Sound cut-outs of 1 to2 seconds in radio mode.During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches for any frequency permitting better reception of the station.
Deactivate the RDS function if the phenomenon is too frequent and always on the same route.

With the engine off, the audio equipment switches off after a few minutes of use.
When the engine is switched off, the audio equipment operating timedepends on the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the audio equipment switches to economy mode and switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery.
Start the vehicle's engine to increase the batterycharge.
The message "the audio system is overheated" appears on the display.
In order to protect the installation if the surrounding temperature is toohigh, the audio equipment switches to an automatic thermal protectionmode leading to a reduction of the volume or stopping of the playing of the CD.
Switch the audio system off for a few minutes toallow the system to cool.
