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.

CHECKING LEVELS


Oil specifi cation


Oil level


The check is carried out either
when the ignition is switched on
using the oil level indicator on the
instrument panel, or using the dip-
stick.
This manual check will only be correct if the
vehicle is on level ground and the engine
has been off for more than 30 minutes.
After topping up the oil, the check when
switching on the ignition with the oil level
indicator in the instrument panel will only
be valid 30 minutes after topping up. The oil must be the correct
grade for your engine and con-
form to the manufacturer's rec-
ommendations.



Brake fluid level

The brake fl uid level should be close to
the "MAX" mark. If it is not, check the
brake pad wear.

Power steering fluid level

The power steering fl uid level
should be close to the "MAX"
mark. Unscrew the cap, with the
engine cold, to check the level.
It is normal to top up the oil level
between services. PEUGEOT
recommends that you check
the oil level and top up if necessary ev-
ery 3 000 miles (5 000 kilometres).
Engine oil change
Refer to the servicing booklet for details
of the interval for this operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the
engine and emission control system,
the use of additives in the engine oil is
prohibited.

Changing the fl uid
Refer to the servicing booklet for details
of the interval for this operation. In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour after
switching off the engine before carrying
out any work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew
the cap by two turns to allow the pres-
sure to drop. When the pressure has
dropped, remove the cap and top up
the level.

Coolant level

The coolant level should be
close to the "MAX" mark but
should never exceed it.
When the engine is warm, the
temperature of the coolant is regulated
by the fan. This can operate with the ig-
nition off.

On vehicles which are fi tted with a par-
ticle emission fi lter, the fan may oper-
ate after the vehicle has been switched
off, even if the engine is cold.

Changing the coolant
The coolant does not have to be
changed.
When working under the bon-
net, take care, as certain ar-
eas of the engine may be
extremely hot (risk of burns).





Before doing anything under
the bonnet, switch off the igni-
tion ( Ready
lamp off) to avoid
any risk of injury resulting from auto-
matic operation of the engine.
Check all of these levels regularly and
top them up if necessary, unless other-
wise indicated.
If a level drops signifi cantly, have the corre-
sponding system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.


Fluid specifi cation
The coolant must conform to the manu-
facturer's recommendations.



Screenwash and headlamp
wash fluid
In the case of vehicles fi tted
with headlamp washers, the
low fl uid level is indicated by an
audible signal and a message
in the instrument panel screen.
Top up the reservoir when you stop the
vehicle.
Fluid specifi cation
The brake fl uid must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations and
meet the DOT4 standard.

TOWING A TRAILER, ...

Towbar suitable for the attachment of a
trailer or caravan with additional lighting
and signalling.

Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage, but it
may also be used for towing a trailer.

Driving advice

The maximum towed load on a long in-
cline depends on the gradient and the
ambient temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the cool-
ant temperature.

Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases
the temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on
the engine speed.


)
To lower the engine speed, reduce
your speed.
Side wind


)
Take into account the increased
sensitivity to side wind.

Tyres


)
Check the tyre pressures of the tow-
ing vehicle and of the trailer, observ-
ing the recommended pressures.

Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking
distance.

)
If the warning lamp and the
STOP
warning lamp come
on, stop the vehicle and
switch off the engine as
soon as possible.








Maximum trailer weight

You must not tow a trailer weighing
more than 500 kg.
Distribution of loads


)
Distribute the load in the trailer so
that the heaviest items are as close
as possible to the axle and the nose
weight approaches the maximum
permitted without exceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine performance. Above
1 000 metres, the maximum towed load
must be reduced by 10 % for every
1 000 metres of altitude. Driving with a trailer places greater de-
mands on the towing vehicle and the
driver must take particular care.
We recommend the use of
genuine PEUGEOT towbars
and their harnesses that have
been tested and approved from the
design stage of your vehicle, and that
the fi tting of the towbar is entrusted
to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
If the trailer is not fi tted by a PEUGEOT
dealer, it is imperative that it is fi tted
using the vehicle's electrical pre-
equipment, in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
Refer to the "Technical Data"
section for details of the
weights and towed loads
which apply to your vehicle.

Lighting


)
Check the electrical lighting and sig-
nalling on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will
be deactivated automatically if
a genuine PEUGEOT towbar
is used.
