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.

Hybrid system
Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; placethe heaviest items in the bottom of the boot,as close as possible to the rear seats.Limit the loads carried in the vehicle andreduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack,bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in preference.Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.


At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.


Observe the recommendations
on maintenance


Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in the door aper ture, driver's side. Carry out this check in par ticular:


- before a long journey,

- at each change of season,

- after a long period out of use.



Have your vehicle ser viced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter...) and obser ve the schedule of operations recommended by the
manufacturer.


When refuelling, do not continue after the 3rd
cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any overflow.

At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is onlyafter the first 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to a consistent average.

Comfort
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance guidelines below: ) If the interior temperature remains very high after the vehicle has been parked in the sunfor a considerable time, first ventilate the passenger compar tment for a few minutes. Place the air flow control at a sufficient level to provide an adequate renewal of air in the passenger compartment.)
To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as wellas the air extractor located in the boot. )
Use in preference the intake of exterior air as prolonged use of the air recirculation maycause misting of the windows and side windows.)
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation of the automatic air conditioning system.)
Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month to keep itin good working order. )
Ensure that the passenger compar tment filter is in good condition and have the filter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section). We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. Thanks to its second special active filter, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compar tment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).)
The air conditioning uses power from the engine while operating. This results in anincrease in the vehicle's fuel consumption. When towing at or near maximum capacity or on steep slopes in high ambient temperatures,switching off the air conditioning saves engine power and so improves towing capacity. Condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water under thevehicle when stationary, which is perfectly normal.)
To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to haveit checked regularly.)
If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning


The air conditioning system does notcontain chlorine and does not present any danger to the ozone layer.
