Hybrid system














Starting your vehicle and moving off




- Inser t the electronic key in the switch,
or if your vehicle has Keyless Entry and Starting, keep the electronic key in the
vehicle.



-
Ensure that the gear lever is in position N.

- Press firmly on the brake pedal.



- With the brake still applied, move the
gear
lever to position A to go for wards or R(bylifting the lever slightly) for reverse.

- Lift your foot off the brake pedal, you canmove off.

- The parking brake is released automatically
as
you move off.
- Pr
ess the START/STOP
button or turn
the key fully towards the dashboard to
position 3(Starting), to star t the hybrid system.

-
The instrument panel and the Readylamp light up. The power graduation is displayed progressively, indicating that the
hybrid system is active, confirmed by
a messa
ge in the screen; the dial in the centre console is in AUTO
mode (default
mode for star ting).
- The hybrid system determines whether it is
necessary to star t the Diesel engine.
When your vehicle vehicle moves off in electric mode, it makes no noise. Be very careful of pedestrians as they will not hear you coming.

Hybrid system












































Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
Optimise the use of your
gearbox
Use automatic mode Aas much as possible as this optimises gear changes to suit the
circumstances.

Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine braking rather than the brake pedal, and press the accelerator progressively. These practices contribute towards a reduction in fuel consumption and CO2 emissions and also helps reduce thebackground traffic noise.
If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of the system at speeds above 25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffic is flowing well.



Control the use of your
electrical equipment
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it byopening the windows and air vents before using the air conditioning.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the windowsand leave the air vents open. Remember to make use of equipment that canhelp 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 attained.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 foglampswhen the level of light does not require their use.

Avoid running the Diesel engine when stationary, par ticularly in winter; your vehiclewill warm up much faster while driving.

As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia devices (film, music, video game...), you will contribute towards limitingthe consumption of electrical energy, and soof fuel.
Disconnect your por table devices beforeleaving the vehicle.

Instruments and controls
Indicator and warning lamps
Visual indicators informing the driver that a system is in operation, switched off or has a fault.

When the ignition is switched on
Certain warning lamps come on for a few seconds in the instrument panel and/or
instrument panel screen 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 switching on of cer tain warning lamps maybe accompanied by an audible signal and a message in the instrument panel screen.
The warning lamps may come on continuously(fixed) or flash.
Certain warning lamps may come on inone of two modes. Only by relating thetype of lighting to the operating status
of the vehicle can it be ascertainedwhether the situation is normal or whether a fault has occurred.

Emergency braking

In the event of a failure of the main servicebrake, a continuous pull on the control lever Awill stop the vehicle.
The dynamic stability control provides stability
during emergency braking.
If the emergency braking malfunctions,
a message will be displayed.
I
f a failure of the DSC system is
signalled by the lighting of this warning lamp, then braking stability is
not guaranteed.
In this event, stability must be assured by the
driver by repeating alternate "pull-release" actions on the control lever A .
Emergency parking brake release
)if your vehicle has one, take out the vehicle chock B
, located behind the rear seats. )On a slope, immobilise the vehicle byplacing a chock in front or behind one of
the front wheels, opposing the slope.
On level ground, immobilise the vehicle byplacing a chock in front or behind one of
the front wheels. In the event o
f fault with the electric parking
brake or a battery failure, an emergency
mechanical control can be used to manuallyrelease the parking brake.)
Immobilise the vehicle (or chock it if the brake pedal has not been released), with
the hybrid system active, place the gear lever in position M or R.)
Switch of the hybrid system, but leave the
ignition on. If you are unable to immobilise
the vehicle, do not operate this control and contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible.

The emergency braking must only be used in exceptional circumstances.

Safety
Snow driving assistance
(Intelligent Traction Control)
Your vehicle has a system to help driving onsnow: Intelligent Traction Control.This automatic system continuously checksfor situations of difficult surface adhesion thatcould make it difficult to move off or makeprogress on deep fresh snow or compactedsnow.
In these situations, Intelligent Traction
Controllimits the amount of wheel slip toprovide the best traction and trajectory control.
In extremely severe conditions (deep snow,mud…), it can be useful to temporarily deactivate the dynamic stability control andwheel anti-slip
systems to allow a degree of
wheel spin and so recover grip.
It is recommended that the system be reactivated as soon as possible.
Snow tyres are strongly recommended on sur faces offering low levels of adhesion.


Operation


Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution
(EBFD)
In emergency braking, press very firmly without releasing the pressure.

When changing wheels (tyres and rims),make sure that these are approved for your vehicle.
Normal operation of the ABS may make itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake pedal. When this warnin
g lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message, it indicates that
there is a fault with the ABS, which could cause loss of control of the vehicle whenbraking.
When this warnin
g lamp comes on, coupled with the STOPwarning lamp,
accompanied by an audible signaland a message, it indicates that
there is a fault with the electronic brake forcedistribution (EBFD), which could cause loss of control of the vehicle when braking.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so. In both cases, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
