ZEV mode *  (all electric) 
 
 
Zero emissions vehicle operation is as-
sured 100 % by electric drive. 
  This mode  forces silent running 
 at 
moderate speeds.  
   
*   ZEV: Zero Emissions Vehicle.     In ZEV mode: 
   
 
-   The accelerator control is progressive. 
   
-   Range and acceleration capacity are 
limited. The maximum speed pos-
sible is around 36 mph (60 km/h). 
   
-   Under high load or a priority require-
ment causing the start of the Diesel 
engine, the system changes auto-
matically to AUTO mode.  
    It can be activated when 
the required conditions are 
met, particularly if the state 
of charge of high voltage 
battery is suffi cient (4 bars minimum).  
   
If the conditions do not allow 
this mode, a message that 
the "electric mode is not cur-
rently available" appears in 
the screen. The ZEV warning 
lamp fl ashes for a few seconds then 
goes off and the selector comes on in 
AUTO. 
Auto mode 
   
It automatically manages the operation 
of the Diesel engine and the electric 
motor, according to inherent vehicle pa-
rameters, traffi c conditions and driving 
style so as to  optimise the vehicle's 
fuel consumption 
. 
  In particular, this mode activates  "zero 
emissions" electric running 
 when the 
conditions allow. 
  In auto mode, the  electric motor 
: 
   
 
-   can drive the vehicle on its own up 
to around 36 mph (60 km/h) in "zero 
emissions" electric running, depend-
ing on the state of charge of the bat-
tery, if the conditions specifi c to the 
vehicle are met and if acceleration is 
moderate, 
   
-   supplements the Diesel engine 
 
when moving off and changing gear, 
during acceleration and when trac-
tion from the front wheels is inade-
quate (it automatically  adds 
  4 wheel 
drive 
), 
   
-   is no longer active above 70 mph 
(120 km/h).  
 
     
This  standard 
 mode to use in 
  preference 
 is activated  auto-
matically 
 on starting the hy-
brid system.

tomatic restarting of the Diesel 
engine or ZEV mode not avail-
able", refer to the corresponding

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 in preference. 
  Remove roof bars and roof racks after 
use.  
   
At the end of winter, remove snow 
tyres and refi t your summer tyres.  
 
 
 
Observe the recommendationson maintenance 
 
 
Check the tyre pressures regularly, 
when cold, referring to the label in the 
door aperture, driver's side. 
  Carry out this check in particular: 
   
 
-   before a long journey, 
   
-   at each change of season, 
   
-   after a long period out of use.  
 
   
Have your vehicle serviced regularly 
(engine oil, oil fi lter,  air fi lter...) and ob-
serve the schedule of operations rec-
ommended by the manufacturer.  
 
    
When refuelling, do not continue after 
the 3 rd   cut-off of the nozzle to avoid 
any overfl ow.  
   
At the wheel of your new vehicle, 
it is only after the fi rst 1 800 miles 
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see 
the fuel consumption settle down to a 
consistent average.

When the cruise control is 
switched on, be careful if you 
maintain the pressure on one 
of the programmed speed changing 
buttons: this may result in a very rapid 
change in the speed of your vehicle. 
  Do not use the cruise control on slippery 
roads or in heavy traffi c. 
 
On a steep descent, the cruise control 
will not be able to prevent the vehicle 
from exceeding the programmed speed. 
  To avoid any risk of jamming of the 
pedals: 
   
 
-   ensure that the mat is positioned 
correctly, 
   
-  never fi t one mat on top of another.  
 
 
 
 Programming 
   
Exceeding the programmed speed 
 
Intentional or unintentional exceeding of the programmed 
speed results in fl ashing of this speed in the screen. 
  Return to the programmed speed, by means of intentional or 
unintentional deceleration of the vehicle, automatically cancels 
the fl ashing of the speed.  
 
 
Return to normal driving 
 
 
 
 ) 
  Turn dial  1 
 to the  "0" 
 position: the cruise control mode is 
deselected. The display returns to the distance recorder.  
 
 
 
Operating fault
 
In the event of a cruise control malfunc-
tion, the speed is cleared resulting in 
fl ashing of the dashes. 
  Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer 
or a qualifi ed workshop. 
   
 
 
 ) 
  Set the programmed speed by ac-
celerating to the required speed, 
then press button  2 
 or  3 
 (e.g.: 
70 mph (110 km/h)).  
   
 
 
 ) 
  Switch off the cruise control by pressing button  4 
: the 
display confi rms that it has been switched off (OFF/
Pause).  
 
   
 
 
 ) 
  Switch the cruise control back on by pressing button  4 
 
again.  
 
    You can then change the programmed speed using buttons  2 
 
and  3 
. 
   
 
-   By + or - 1 mph (km/h) = short press. 
   
-   By + or - 5 mph (km/h) = long press. 
   
-   In steps of + or - 5 mph (km/h) = maintained press.  
     
 
 
 ) 
  Turn wheel  1 
 to the  "CRUISE" 
 
position: the cruise control mode 
is selected but is not switched on 
(OFF/Pause).
