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, ...),

- accordin
g to the type of journeys
made (urban, main road, motor way, 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.


Causes of high consumption and checks
As with any vehicle, limit overloading, wind resistance (windows open above 30 mph (50 km/h), roof bars, 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.



Drive smoothly
Stay in the "eco" zone
displayed in the energy consumption / generation indicator: accelerate gently, drive at steadyspeeds 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 energy consumption.Refer to the "Multifunction screens" section.

Automatic restarting of the Diesel engine or ZEV mode NOT available

Maintaining the performance
of the system



- When the vehicle exceeds 18 mph(30 km/h) after moving off (if the internal
combustion engine has not already star ted since the vehicle was last star ted).

- If the high voltage battery is not sufficiently charged. A minimum of 4 barsin ZEV mode so as to ensure operationover a cer tain distance (in AUTO, electricoperation is accessible for a shor ter period with a lower level of charge).

- When the fuel level enters the reservezone (where rate of consumption of this reser ve is high, ZEV inhibition may continue for some time after refuelling).

- During regeneration of the particleemissions filter, which occursautomatically for 5 to 10 minutes,approximately every 300 miles (500 kms)(or less in extended urban running).

The internal combustion engine may restar t or
ZEV mode may not be available in the variousconditions presented below. The internal combustion engine can beswitched off automatically as soon as these
conditions are lifted. When the conditions described below causethe vehicle to come out of ZEV mode andthe Diesel engine to restar t, the vehicle automatically changes to AUTO mode.
Your vehicle is fitted with the most effective emissions control systems, in par ticular the Particle Emissions Filter (PEF).
At regular inter vals your Diesel engine will produce energy for the self-cleaning of this filter.During this PEF regeneration phase, electric running is purposely made unavailable andis accompanied by a message "Electricmode not available: PEF regeneration inprogress
".
Action by the driver
- Moving the gear selector to position M
. - Action on steering mounted control paddles to change gear.- Sustained and sharp acceleration. - Use of demisting.- Use of air conditioning.


Diffi cult weather conditions and
circumstances



- If cer tain conditions or engine temperature requirements make it necessary (such as an engine temperature that is too low for the ambient conditions).

- When the battery is close to maximumcharge (for example: when going down a long hill), because engine recoverybeing no longer possible, the internalcombustion engine restar ts automatically just to provide engine braking.

- If the vehicle encounters a steep slope(car park ramp, ...).

- If the vehicle has been parked in the sunfor a prolonged period.

- When driving in mountainous conditions(altitude).

Hybrid4 frequently asked questions


ZEV (Zero Emissions Vehicle) mode
QuestionAnswer
Why is it not always possible
for me to put the
vehicle into ZEV (Zero Emissions Vehicle) mode even though the battery is well charged? This situation is temporary.
Certain conditions will occasionally prevent the change to ZEV mode, even if the battery hassufficient charge, such as, for example, very cold conditions, altitude, demisting, high demand for heating or air conditioning, regeneration of the par ticle emissions filter (PEF).
Wh
y do I sometimes see an aler t message "Electric mode not available: PEF regeneration
in progress"? This is an messa
ge relating to the regeneration of the par ticle emissions filter (PEF). This is acompletely normal process that takes place every 240 or 300 miles (400 or 500 km) (or more
frequently in prolonged urban use), as on a conventional HDi vehicle.
This process is not generally noticed by the driver.
On the other hand, in the case of a hybrid, this phenomenon may be noticeable (in urban use)
as temporarily the HDi engine will not stop and this message will be displayed at intervals while
regeneration is in progress.
Wh
y is it not possible for me to put the vehicle
into ZEV mode, even though I had just beenrunning electrically in Auto mode? The mana
gement of ZEV is different from Auto mode.
Changing to ZEV mode is only possible with a battery charge of at least 4 bars, in order to assure sufficient range.
In Auto mode, the system alone manages the conditions for changing temporarily to electric mode, for shorter periods and with a lower state of charge of the battery.
Wh
y is the range in ZEV (Zero Emissions
Vehic le) mode lower when climbing? The vehicle needs more energy when climbing than when running on the level.
So it is better to stay in Auto mode, which will favour operation of the Diesel engine.
Why is it that the system makes me come out o
f
ZEV (Zero Emissions Vehicle) mode; it does notreturn to ZEV automatically when the conditions allow? It is not intended to give pre
ference to ZEV running at any cost, as it is not always the most economical mode.
So the system returns automatically to Auto mode.

Air conditioning
QuestionAnswer

It seems to me that the vehicle runs less on electric when the heating or air conditioning is
operatin
g, is that right?
The demand for heating or air conditioning may require the star ting of the Diesel engine until thedesired level of comfort is attained.
Normal h
ybrid operation is simply put back. The period can be longer under low or very high
ambient temperatures.
It seems to me that when it is ver
y hot and the
air conditioning is working, the vehicle runs on electric for shor ter periods. Is that right? When it is hot, the periods when the Diesel en
gine is put on standby and the vehicle runs onelectric are necessarily restricted in order to limit the difference between the temperature in the
vehicle and the level of comfort selected.
In very hot weather, it is always possible to press the Eco OFF button (which brings the vehicle out of ZEV mode and prevents electric running or the stopping of the engine) to give preference to
temperature control (keeps the air conditioning running).

Special Hybrid4 features
QuestionAnswer
Can I tow with m
y hybrid vehicle and how much? A Hybrid4 vehicle can tow between 500 kg and 800 kg (see the "Towing" section).
This allows a jet ski or two-wheeler on a trailer to be towed, for example.
The "technical" reason for the limit is related to maintaining adequate cooling capacity for the internal combustion engine as well as the hybrid components that are also cooled by the engine's cooling system.
Wh
y does engine braking seem so strong? When you take your foot off the accelerator, the engine braking results mainly from the energyrecovery by the electric motor.
This leads to a higher level of deceleration than a conventional vehicle and so allows the recoveryof free energy.

ECO OFF switch
This function prevents the Diesel engine
being switched off and so ensures that a comfor table temperature can be maintained in
the passenger compar tment (air conditioningrunning continuously).On pressing the switch, the engine restar ts
immediately.
To return to normal operation, press the switch
again.
After switching off the ignition, the vehicle will return to normal operation (lamp in the switch off).

*

Except in ZEV mode, which favours electric
running over assuring a comfortable
temperature.
During electric running and when the engine is
stopped, the hybrid system manages restarting
automatically to assure comfor t levels in the
passenger compartment * .
However, variations in temperature may still be felt in very hot climates. To avoid anydiscomfor t in these conditions you can operate
the ECO OFF switch.

Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
Eco-driving suited to your
Hybrid4 vehicle
Use gear selector position A , as thisoptimises gear changes to suit the circumstances, and the AUTOmode of theHybrid4 mode selector.When moving off, accelerate normally up tothe desired speed ( POWER
zone between20 and 40 %). At steady speeds, drive gently with smallmovements of the accelerator pedal (ECOor CHARGEzone), run in electric mode as oftenas possible when driving at low speed. Anticipate the need to slow down and useengine braking ( CHARGE
zone), so as to make use of free energy recovery while keeping light pressure on the accelerator pedal.

Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it byopening the windows and air vents beforeusing the air conditioning.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the windowsand leave the air vents open. Remember to make use of equipment that can help keep the temperature in the passenger compar tment down (sun roof andwindow blinds...).Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic digital regulation, as soon as the desired temperature is attained.Switch off the demisting and defrostingcontrols, if not automatic.Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch off the headlamps and front foglampswhen the level of light does not require their use.

Avoid running the Diesel engine when stationary, par ticularly in winter; your vehiclewill warm up much faster while driving.

As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia devices (film, music, video game...), you will contribute towards limitingthe consumption of electrical energy, and soof fuel.
Disconnect your por table devices beforeleaving the vehicle.
Control the use of your electrical equipment
