Hybrid system
Auto mode
It automatically manages the operation of the
Diesel engine and the electric motor, according
to inherent vehicle parameters, traffic
conditions and driving style so as to optimise
the vehicle's fuel consumption.In par ticular, this mode activates "zero emissions" electric runningwhen theconditions allow.
In auto mode, the electric motor
:
- can drive the vehicle on its own up
to around 36 mph
(60 km/h) in "zero
emissions" electric running, dependingon the state of charge of the battery, if the conditions specific to the vehicle are metand if acceleration is moderate, -supplements the Diesel enginewhen moving off and changing gear, during acceleration and when traction from thefront wheels is inadequate (it automaticallyadds4 wheel drive ),
- is no longer active above 70 mph (120 km / h).
ZEV mode *
(all electric)
Zero emissions vehicle operation is assured
10 0 % by electric drive.
This mode forces silent runningat moderatespeeds.
If the conditions do not allow this mode
, amessage that the ZEV mode is not available
appears in the screen, the ZEV warning lamp flashes for a few seconds then goes off and theselector comes on in AUTO.
In ZEV mode:
- The accelerator control is progressive.
- Range and acceleration capacity are
limited. The maximum speed possible is
around 36 mph (60 km/h).
- Under high load or a priority requirement causing the star t of the Diesel engine, thesystem changes automatically to AUTO mode.
This standard
mode to use inpreferenceis activated automaticallyon star ting the hybrid system.
For more information on "Automaticrestarting of the Diesel engine", refer tothe corresponding section.
*
ZEV: Z
ero Emissions Vehicle.
It can be activated when the
required conditions are met,
particularly if the state of charge of high voltage battery issufficient (4 bars minimum).

Hybrid system
Sport mode
(Diesel and
electric)
This mode allows more dynamic driving byproviding additional performance. Vehicle acceleration and pick-up aremaximised by using the capacity of the electricmotor, supplementing the power of the Dieselengine.
This mode manages the progressiveness of the
accelerator, the electronic gear control gearbox and the use of the electric motor.
In Spor t mode:
-
The electric motor can be used up to
70 mph (120 km/h).
4WD mode **
(Diesel and
electric)
This mode provides additional traction*** at low speed by driving all 4 wheels of the vehiclecontinuously: the Diesel engine (front wheel
drive) and the electric motor (rear wheel drive)
operate simultaneously and permanently.
Their couplin
g is managed electronically to
optimise traction on slippery surfaces.
In 4WD mode:
- Power for the electric motor is provided,
if needed, b
y the alternator-star ter motor
of the front engine. The Diesel engine
operates continuously.
- The additional traction from the electric
motor is available up to 75 mph (120 km/h).
This mode should be used on snowcovered roads or difficult ground (mud, sand, ...).
**
4WD: 4 Wheel Drive.
***
This mode will be even more effective if suitable tyres are fitted (winter tyres in
particular).
Be aware of the ground clearance of your vehicle: around 184 mm (with the vehicle in working order: driver only and
the fuel tank full) in ideal conditions. This value will vary with vehicle load,the nature of the ground surface and the surroundings.
If the driver considers that the vehiclecan traverse an obstacle, they assumeentire responsibility for this.

Access
Fuel tank Capacity of the tank: approximately 72 litres.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres to
be registered by the fuel gauge.Opening the filler cap may result in an inrush of air. This vacuum is entirely normal and results from the sealing of the fuel system. ) Take care to select the pump that delivers
the correct fuel t
ype for your vehicle'sengine (reminder on a label on the inside of
the filler flap). ) Open the filler cap by turning it a 1/4 turn to
the left. ) Remove the filler cap and hang it on its carrier (on the filler flap).
Opening
If you have put in the wrong fuel for your vehicle, you must have havethe tank drained and refilled with the correct fuel before you start theengine.
- Press the switch.
This control remains active for a fewminutes after switching off the ignition.
If necessary, switch the ignition on again to reactivate it.
Refuelling
)
Introduce the nozzle and push it in fully(pushing on the the metal non-return
valve A). A ) Fill the tank. Do not continue past the thirdcut-off of the nozzle, as this may cause malfunctions. )
Refit the filler cap turning it a 1/4 turn to
the right. ) Push the filler flap to close it.
Your vehicle is
fitted with a catalytic converter,
a device which helps to reduce the level of
harmful emissions in the exhaust gases.
You must switch off theengine by stopping the
hybrid system (the Readylamp must be off) to avoid
any automatic restar t of the engine while
refuelling.

Low fuel level
When the low fuel level in the
tank is reached, this warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel,
accompanied by an audible warning
and a message in the instrument
panel screen.
When it first comes on, around 7 litresof fuelremain in the tank.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out.
Fuel supply cut-off
Your vehicle is equipped with a safety device
which cuts off the fuel supply in the event of a collision.
It is still possible to use a fuel can to fill
the tank but this must be done slowly. In order to ensure a good flow of fuel, do not place the nozzle of the fuel canin direct contact with the flap of themisfuel prevention device.
Diesel misfuel prevention
Mechanical device which prevents filling the tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It avoids the risk of engine damage that can result from filling with the wrong fuel.
Located in the filler neck, the misfuel prevention device appears when the filler cap is removed.
When a petrol
filler nozzle is introduced into the fuel filler neck of your Diesel vehicle, it comes
into contact with the flap. The system remains
closed and prevents filling. Do not persist but introduce a Diesel filler
nozzle.
Operation
Tr a v e l l i ng abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be different
in other countries, the presence of the misfuel prevention device may make refuellingimpossible.
Before travelling abroad, we recommend that you check with the PEUGEOT dealer network,
whether your vehicle is suitable for the fuelpumps in the country in which you want to
travel.
