Hybrid system
High voltage
Before doing any work on
the vehicle, switch off the
ignition ( Readylamp off). y
High voltage cables
High voltage cables are routed under the
vehicle (sills); take care not to damage them when the vehicle is used for off-road activity (such as covering rough ground).
Battery precautions
The high voltage battery must not in any
circumstances be charged from an externalsource 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 removed in an
appropriate manner by a repair workshop,so that its recycling presents no risk to the environment.
Take care to position lifting equipment(jack, hoist, ...) at the locations provided to avoid damaging the cables.
The volta
ge used for the operation of theelectric motor is in the range 150 to 270 Volts.
Be sure to take account of the warning labels
fitted to the vehicle.
Ta k e great care regarding the high voltage and high temperatures of components carrying thecurrent.
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 bestarted.
To restar t the hybrid system, contact a
PE
UGEOT dealer.
Never touch, dismantle, remove or replace the high voltage par ts, orange cables or connectors, even in the event of an accident.

Instruments and controls
If dashes are displayed continuously while driving in place of the digits,contact a PEUGEOT dealer or aqualified workshop.
This function is only displayed from 20 mph (30 km/h).
This value may vary following a changein the style of driving or the relief,resulting in a significant change in thecurrent fuel consumption.
A few definitions…
Range
(miles or km)
This indicates the distancewhich can still be travelled with
the fuel remaining in the tank
in relation to the average fuelconsumption over the last few
miles (kilometres) travelled.
When the ran
ge falls below 20 miles (30 km),
dashes are displayed. After filling with at least 5 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is
displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (10 0 km).
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel consumption
during the last few seconds.
Average fuelconsumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)This is the average fuel
consumption since the last tripcomputer zero reset.
Average speed
(mph or km/h)
This is the average speed calculated
since the last trip computer zero reset
(ignition on).
The hybrid system and its electric motor
do not provide additional range; followthe indications of the trip computer.
