Hybrid system
The electronic power super visor - 4automatically manages the operation of the two power units(Diesel and electric) to provide the lowest consumption.
An inver ter and a transformer are needed to manage the electric power.
The inver ter acts on the torque of the electric motor, by regulating the current coming from the high
voltage battery pack. Its operating range is between 150 and 270 volts.
The trans
former conver ts the 200 V of the battery pack to 12 V, to power the vehicle's ancillary
systems.
Th
e Stop & Star t system - 5
allows the Diesel engine to be put into standby during stops (traffic
lights, a stop, or in a traffic jam, for example) or during phases of running in all-electric mode.
The stopping and restar ting of the Diesel engine is done in a way that is instantaneous and
transparent for the driver.
Th
e electronicgear controlgearbox - 6 provides, in automatic mode, significant savings in fuel consumption compared to a conventional manual gearbox, thanks to its electronic control system.
It also offers improved driving pleasure with the possibility at any time of choosing the gear changing mode: automatic or manual, using the paddles located behind the steering wheel.

Hybrid system
Emergency starting withthe electronic key
When the electronic key is in the defined zone and your vehicle does not star t after pressingthe "STA R T/STOP" button: )Open the housing below the "START/STOP" button. )Inser t the electronic key in the location A.)Press the "STA R T/STOP" button.

Emergency switch- off usingthe electronic key

In the event of an emergency only, the enginecan be switched of without conditions. To dothis, press and hold the "START/STOP" button
for about 3 seconds.
In this case the steering column locks as soon
as the vehicle stops.
If the electronic key is no longer in the definedzone when you request switching off the engine, a message appears in the instrument panel. )
Press and hold the "START/STOP"
button for about 3 seconds if you want toforce switching off the engine (note that
restarting will not be possible without
the key).
Electronic key not recognised bythe "Keyless Entry and Starting"
system
If the electronic key is no longer in the defined
zone when driving or when you (later) request switching off of the hybrid system, a message
appears in the instrument panel.
Once the engine has started, you can remove the electronic key and close thehousing.
)Press and hold the "STA R T/STOP" button for about 3 seconds if you want to forceswitching off of the hybrid system (note
that restarting will not be possible without
the electronic key in the defined zone).

Hybrid system
Automatic restarting of the Diesel engine or NON
access to ZEV mode
The main conditions are:


- if the gear lever is in position M,


- if the steering mounted gear change control paddles are operated,

- if the high voltage battery is not sufficiently charged. At least 4 bars in ZEV mode so asto provide a cer tain distance (in AUTO mode, electric operation is available more brieflywith a lower state of charge),

- at 18 mph (30 km/h) after setting off (if the internal combustion engine has not alreadystar ted since setting off),

- when the vehicle is on a slope, to retain engine braking from the internal combustion engine when the battery is fully charged,

- when using engine braking from the internal combustion engine,

- when the fuel level enters the reser ve zone (in the event of high consumption of thisreser ve, inhibition of ZEV can continue for some time after refuelling).

- when maintaining a comfor table temperature in the passenger compar tment (air conditioning, ...),

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

- when demisting,

- during sustained and sharp acceleration

- in mountainous conditions (altitude),

- when using the vehicle on a steep slope (car park ramp, ...),

- when regenerating the par ticle emissions filter, for around 5 to 10 minutes every300 miles (500 km)(or less for extended urban running.

- in cer tain engine temperature conditions or requirements, such as an enginetemperature that is too low for the ambient conditions.
In ZEV mode, these conditions lead to an immediate change to AUTO mode. The Diesel engine is switched off automatically as soon as these conditions are lifted.


Your vehicle is fitted with the most effective emissions control systems, inparticular the Particle Emissions Filter (PEF).
At regular intervals your Diesel engine will produce energy for the self-cleaningof this filter.
During this PEF regeneration phase,electric running is purposely madeunavailable.

Instruments and controls
Warning lamps
With the hybrid system active or when the vehicle is being driven, illumination of one of the following warning lamps indicates a fault which requires
action on the par t of the driver.
Any fault resulting in the illumination of a warning lamp must be investigated fur ther by reading the associated message in the instrument panel screen.
If you encounter any problems, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
