2013.5 Citroen DS5 HYBRID4 RHD stop start

200 V high voltage battery
The 200 V high voltage battery cannot be recharged from a mains supply. The battery is Ni-MH (Nickel Metal Hydride) and is located below the boot floor, close to the electric motor.
Charging
The battery is charged when the vehicle decelerates, the electric motor then becomes a generator and converts kinetic energy into electrical energy (except if the speed of the vehicle is above 70 mph (120 km/h)). The battery is not recharged from a mains supply. The battery may also be charged automatically when required by the alternator-starter motor (Stop & Start) of the Diesel engine.
This recovery allows the use of "free" energy. The battery charging time is very short and is continuous. A discharged battery (following ZEV running or high load, for example) will quickly return to a state of charge sufficient for full operation of the different hybrid modes. The charging takes place automatically when driving . The energy recovery can be faster during deceleration. The average state of charge is 4 to 5 bars, so preserving a margin for energy recovery when deceleration of going downhill (free energy).
To preserve the service life of the battery, the level of charge never falls below 20 %, even if a level of 0 bars is displayed after ZEV running. Where the battery is close to maximum, vehicle deceleration with your foot off the accelerator pedal will be at a lower level.

Car washing machine or tunnel
Some car washing machines or tunnels (where the vehicle is moved for wards on a travelling track) require that the parking brake be "released" during the wash.
With the hybrid system active, Ready lamp on, parking brake released: - Place the gear selector in position N . - Switch off the engine (press on START/STOP). The parking brake is applied automatically and the Ready lamp goes off in the instrument panel. - Switch on the ignition again (press on START/STOP) without your foot on the brake pedal. The Ready lamp remains off. - Release the parking brake using the manual control on the centre console, while keeping your foot on the brake pedal. - Switch off the ignition (press on START/STOP without your foot on the brake pedal) checking that the parking brake
remains released.
If the Diesel engine is not running, it restarts. If the Diesel engine is running, it remains running without time limit.
With the hybrid system active, Ready lamp on, parking brake released: - Place the gear selector in position N (Auto or Sport mode). - Press the brake pedal then the ECO OFF button.
