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.

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
possible as this optimises gear chang-
es 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 connecting
your multimedia devices (fi lm, music,
video game...), you will contribute to-
wards limiting the consumption of elec-
trical 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.

HYBRID SYSTEM
38

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 recommendations
on 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
observe the schedule of operations
recommended 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 set-
tle down to a consistent average.

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.

Also ensure that the ignition is
switched off when refuelling to
avoid the engine restarting.







UNDERBONNET
PRECAUTIONS/WARNINGS

The alternator-starter motor of your
hybrid vehicle is also supplied at high
voltage. If the vehicle ignition has not
been switched off, there is a risk of the
engine restarting at any moment.
Always ensure that
the ignition is switched
off ( Ready
lamp off)
before opening the
bonnet.

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 seconds when the vehicle's ignition
is switched on.
When the engine is started, these same
warning 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.
