For economical driving, caring for the environment


The fuel consumptionof a vehicle varies greatly:


- according to the driver's style of driving
(moderate, aggressive, fast, ...),

- according to the type of journeys
made (urban, main road, motorway, flowing, heavy traffic, …) and the speed.


Main recommendations for driving economically


Hybrid mode selector
To optimise fuel consumption, use the Automodeof the selector whenever possible (the mode is activated
automatically when starting) including for urban journeys.
This mode optimises the use of the energy sources (internal combustion engine and/or electric) contrary to other modes, which are for use in par ticular cases.


Gear lever
Use the automatic
mode A
as much as possible as this optimises gear changes to suit the requirements.


Drive smoothly
Stay in the "eco" zone
displayed in the energy consumption/generation indicator: accelerate gently, drive atsteady speeds using the speed limiter or cruise control as soon as possible. Use the "charge" zone
: anticipate the need to slow down by taking your foot off the accelerator rather than
braking. The movement of the energy consumption/generation indicator needle (into the "charge" zone), shows
the level of energy recovery.

Consumption history

See the impact of your style of driving and the type of journey by reviewing the history of your energyconsumption. Refer to the "Multifunction screens" section.


Causes of high consumption and checks
As with any vehicle, limit overloading, wind resistance (windows open above 30 mph (50 km/h), roof rack, loaded
or not, …), the use of power consumers (air conditioning, heated seats, heated rear screen, …).
Obser ve the recommendations on checks (regular check of tyre pressures, correct tyre pressures, …) and routine servicing.

Monitoring
On switching on, the dial needles go to
the extent of their travel then return to 0. A. With the ignition on, the needle shouldindicate the fuel remaining. B.With the engine running, the associated low level warning lamp should go off.

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














Ready lamp

With the gear lever in position N, press the
brake pedal and star t the hybrid system.
This lamp comes on when the vehicle is read
y
to move off ("Auto" mode is on by default) andso the driver can press the accelerator.
This lamp comes on more or less instantly but may take a few seconds in some cases (inparticular, the time needed for pre-heating the
Diesel engine in cold weather).









HYbrid4 mode selector
AUTOmode, for normal use and optimised fuelconsumption.
ZEVmode, to force electric runnin
g.S
portmode, to make use of the maximum
per formance of the vehicle.
4WDmode, to force the vehicle into 4x4 mode.



When stationary, switch off the hybridsystem and check that the Readylamp is off when you leave the vehicle.Other wise the hybrid system will remainactive. See paragraph "Underbonnet precautions/warnings". Th
e selector allows the user to choose between
4 drive modes for the vehicle.
Turn the dial to the right or left; the mode
selected is confirmed by illumination of thecorresponding indicator.
