POWER METER

The dial provides real time information on the total power used, combining electric
and Diesel.
It comprises three main zones.


ECO zone

Zone which indicates that the vehicle
is optimising its energy consump-
tion
, electric, Diesel or a combination
of both.

POWER zone

Zone which indicates an increased cu-
mulative power demand
from your
hybrid vehicle, taking account of the
combined capacities of the Diesel en-
gine and the electric motor.


CHARGE zone

Zone which indicates that the vehicle is
in electrical energy recovery
phase: on
deceleration, braking or foot off the ac-
celerator, ...
This allows the high voltage battery
to be recharged using "free" energy

which can then be reused
for future
energy requirements.
This zone corresponds to phases of
electric running as well as to phases
of optimum use of the Diesel engine,
which are easily accessible with a suit-
able driving style (smooth "eco-citizen"
driving).

Examples of displays


On starting and when stationary
there is no fl ow of energy (the Stop & Start system
stops and restarts the Diesel engine automatically).

Energy recovery
During this phase (deceleration, braking, foot off the
accelerator, … all modes), the battery is recharged by
the electric motor/generator, itself driven by the rear
wheels.

100 % electric
In all electric running (AUTO or ZEV modes), only the
electric motor, powered by the battery, drives the rear
wheels.
The display of "Zero Emissions" indicates that the
Diesel engine is off and the vehicle is producing no CO
2.

Automatic restarting of
the Diesel engine
Various conditions can lead to restarting
or maintaining the Diesel engine, princi-
pally:


- during sustained and sharp ac-
celeration ,


- to maintain a comfortable tempera-
ture in the passenger compartment,

- when demisting,

- if the high voltage battery is not
suffi ciently charged,

-
in mountainous conditions (altitude),


- in certain temperature conditions
for the engine, such as a low am-
bient temperature (below 0 °C),

- if the temperature of the hybrid
system is too high,

- when using the vehicle after pro-
longed parking in a sunny area,

- when using the vehicle on a steep
slope,

- when regenerating the particle
emissions fi lter,

- fuel level too low.
In ZEV mode, these conditions lead
to an immediate change to AUTO
mode.
The Diesel engine is switched off auto-
matically as soon as these conditions
are lifted.






ECO OFF SWITCH


This function prevents the Diesel engine
being switched off and so ensures that
a comfortable temperature can be main-
tained in the passenger compartment
(air conditioning running continuously).
On pressing the switch, the engine re-
starts immediately.
To return to normal operation, press the
switch again.
After switching off the ignition, the vehi-
cle will return to normal operation (lamp
in the switch off).
Your vehicle is fi tted with the
most effective emissions con-
trol systems , in particular
the particle Emissions Filter
(PEF).
At regular intervals your Diesel en-
gine will produce energy for the self-
cleaning of this fi lter.
During this PEF regeneration phase,
electric running is purposely made
unavailable.

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 automatically
when driving .
The energy recovery can be faster during
deceleration.

This system does not work continuous-
ly, but adapts the force of the ventilation
to the requirements of the battery.
Its operation can be heard at the rear,
even if the vehicle is stopped after a
run.
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 recom-
mendations:


- do not obstruct the air intake with loose articles, otherwise, the battery
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 be-
coming 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.
The battery may also be charged auto-
matically when required by the Stop &
Start system of the Diesel engine.

To preserve the service life of
the battery, the level of charge
never falls below 20 %, even
if a level of 0 bars is displayed
after ZEV running.

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.

The high voltage battery must not in any
circumstances be charged from an ex-
ternal source and must only be handled
by a workshop technician.
There is the risk of serious burns, as
well as electric arcs that could cause
serious injury or even death.
A used Ni-MH (Nickel Metal Hydride)
type high voltage battery must be re-
moved in an appropriate manner by a
repair workshop, so that its recycling
presents no risk to the environment.








High voltage


The voltage used for the operation of
the electric motor is in the range 150 to
270 Volts.
Be sure to take account of the warning
labels fi tted to the vehicle.

Take great care regarding the high voltage
and high temperatures of components
carrying the current.

Emergency cut-off

In the event of an accident, a cut-off
system blocks the high voltage current
and cuts off the fuel pump; your
vehicle can no longer be started.
To restart the hybrid system, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer. Never touch, dismantle, remove or
replace the high voltage parts, cables
(orange in colour) or connectors, even
in the event of an accident.

High voltage cables are routed under
the vehicle (sills); ensure that the vehi-
cle is not used for off-road activity (such
as crossing a ford) which could damage
them.
Before doing any
work on the vehicle,
switch off the ignition
( Ready
lamp off).


Battery precautions

High voltage cables


Take care to position lifting
equipment (jack, hoist, ...) at
the locations provided to avoid
damaging the cables.

INSTRUMENTS and CONTROLS










Warning lamps
When the hybrid system is active or the vehicle is being driven, the illumination of one of the following warning lamps indicates
a fault which requires action on the part of the driver.
Any fault resulting in the illumination of a warning lamp must be investigated further by reading the associated message in
the multifunction screen.
If you encounter any problems, do not hesitate to contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
