2013 Citroen DS5 HYBRID4 battery

51Hybrid system

This system does not work continuously,
but adapts the force of the fan cooling to the
requirements of the battery.
Its operation can be heard at the rear, even if
the vehicle is stopped after a run.
If the air intake is blocked, the battery mayoverheat, damaging the battery and causing a
loss of performance of the hybrid system.







Fan cooling of the high voltage battery


For the best use of the high voltagebattery, please follow these recommendations:


- do not obstruct the air intake withloose articles, otherwise, the battery may overheat, causing aloss of performance of the hybridsystem

- do not spill fluids, as this may cause damage to the battery.


The high voltage battery has an air cooling system, comprising an air intake(located on the side of the left hand rear seat) and a fan (located behind the lefthand boot trim panel).

The high voltage battery must not in anycircumstances be charged from an external source and must only be handled by a
workshop technician.
There is the risk o
f serious burns, as well as electric arcs that could cause serious injury or
even death.
A used Ni-MH (Nickel Metal Hydride) type high voltage battery must be removed in an
appropriate manner by a repair workshop,so that its recycling presents no risk to the environment.
High voltage
The voltage used for the operation of theelectric motor is in the range 150 to 270 Volts.
Be sure to take account of the warning labels
fitted to the vehicle.
Ta k e great care regarding the high voltage andhigh temperatures of components carrying the current.

Emergency cut-off

In the event of an accident, a cut-off system blocks the high voltage current and cuts off
the fuel pump; your vehicle can no longer be started.
To restar t the hybrid system, contact a CITROËN dealer.
High voltage cables are routed under the
vehicle
(sills); take care not to damage them
when the vehicle is used for off-road activity (such as covering rough ground).
Be
fore doing any workon the vehicle, switch off the ignition (Readylamp off).

Hi
gh voltage cables
Take care to position lifting equipment(jack, hoist, ...) at the locations provided to avoid damaging the cables.


Never touch, dismantle, remove or replace the high voltage par ts, orange cables or connectors, even in the eventof an accident.

Dials and screens
Control buttons

With the hybrid system active or when the vehicle is being driven, illumination of one of the following warning lamps indicates a fault which requires action on the par t of the driver.

the engine oil pressure, the enginecoolant temperature, the hybrid system
or a major electrical fault.Stop as soon as it is safe to do so as the en
gine may cut out.
Park, switch off the ignition and call a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.



Serviceon temporarily. A minor fault has occurred for which
there is no specific warning lamp. Identify the fault by reading the message shown in the screen, such as, for example:
- the closing of the doors, boot or bonnet,
- the engine oil level,
- the screenwash level,
- the remote control battery,
- the tyre pressures,
- saturation of the par ticle emission filter (Diesel). - ...For any other faults, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Service overdue
Every time the ignition is switched on, an
overdue service is immediately signaledby flashing of the spanner and the fixed
illumination of the Service warning lamp.

Therefore, the spanner may also comeon if you have exceeded the period since the last service, indicated in the maintenance and warranty guide
.

Following this operation, if you wish to disconnect the battery, lock the vehicle and wait at least five minutes for the zero reset to be taken into account. 5 seconds a
fter the ignition is switched on,
the distance recorder resumes its normal
operation. The spanner remains on.

zero reset
After each ser vice, the ser vice indicator mustbe reset to zero.
The procedure for resetting to zero is as
follows: ) switch off the ignition,)
press and hold the trip distance recorder
zero reset button,) switch on the ignition; the distance recorder
display begins a countdown,
) when the display indicates "=0", release
the button; the spanner disappears.
