How to start your vehicle
- Ensure that the gear lever is in posi-
tion N
.
- Switch the ignition on by turning the
key to position 2
.
If the Diesel pre-heating warning
lamp comes on (ambient tempera-
ture below freezing), wait unit it goes
off before starting.
- The instrument panel and the
Ready
lamp come on. The power
meter needle sweeps through its
travel indicating that the hybrid
system is active, confi rmed by
a message
; the dial in the centre
console is in AUTO
mode (default
mode for starting).
- The hybrid system determines
whether it is necessary to start the
Diesel engine.
- With the brake still applied, move
the gear lever to position A
to go
forwards or R
(by lifting the lever
slightly) for reverse.
- Lift your foot off the brake pedal, you
can move off.
- The parking brake is released auto-
matically as you move off, if confi -
gured to do so (otherwise, release
the parking brake manually).
How to stop your vehicle andthe hybrid system
- Apply the brake until the vehicle
comes to a complete stop.
- Place the gear lever in position N
.
- Turn the ignition key to position 1
,
the parking brake is applied auto-
matically if confi gured to do so.
- Otherwise apply the parking brake
manually, the P
warning lamp must
be on.
- Press fi rmly on the brake pedal, turn
the ignition key to position 3
to start
up the hybrid system, then release
the key.
When stationary, switch off the
ignition and ensure that the
Ready
lamp is off before you
leave the vehicle, otherwise
the hybrid system will still be active.
For more information, refer to the "Un-
derbonnet precautions / warnings"
section.
When your vehicle starts in electric
mode, this means that it makes no
noise. Be very careful of pedestrians
as they will not hear you coming.

ECO-DRIVING
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emis-
sions.
Optimise the use of your gearbox
Use automatic mode A
as much as pos-
sible as this optimises gear changes to
suit the circumstances.
Drive smoothly
If your vehicle has cruise control, make
use of the system at speeds above
25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffi c is
fl owing well.
Control the use of your electrical equipment
Before moving off, if the passenger
compartment is too warm, ventilate it by
opening the windows and air vents be-
fore using the air conditioning.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the win-
dows and leave the air vents open.
Remember to make use of equipment
that can help keep the temperature in
the passenger compartment down (sun
roof and window blinds...).
Switch off the air conditioning, unless
it has automatic digital regulation, as
soon as the desired temperature is at-
tained.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting
controls, if not automatic.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as
possible.
Switch off the headlamps and front fo-
glamps when the level of light does not
require their use.
Avoid running the Diesel engine when
stationary, particularly in winter; your
vehicle will warm up much faster while
driving.
As a passenger, if you avoid connect-
ing your multimedia devices (fi lm, mu-
sic, video game...), you will contribute
towards limiting the consumption of
electrical energy, and so of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices be-
fore leaving the vehicle.
Maintain a safe distance between ve-
hicles, use engine braking rather than
the brake pedal, and press the accel-
erator progressively. These practices
contribute towards a reduction in fuel
consumption and CO
2 emissions and
also helps reduce the background traf-
fi c noise.

According to country. Indicator and warning lamps
Visual indicators informing the driver
that a system is in operation (operation
or deactivation indicator lamps) or of the
occurrence of a fault (warning lamp).
When the ignition is switched on
Certain warning lamps come on for a few sec-
onds when the vehicle's ignition is switched
on.
When the engine is started, these same warn-
ing lamps should go off.
If they remain on, before moving off, refer to the
information on the warning lamp concerned.
Associated warnings
The illumination of certain warning
lamps may be accompanied by an au-
dible signal and a message in the multi-
function screen.
The warning lamps may come
on continuously (fi xed) or fl ash.
Certain warning lamps may
come on in two different modes. Only
by relating the type of illumination to
the operating status of the vehicle
can it be ascertained whether the
situation is normal or whether a fault
has occurred.
