Automatic restarting of the Diesel engine or ZEV mode NOT available
the internal combustion engine may restart
or ZeV mode may not be available in the
various conditions presented below.
th

e internal combustion engine can be
switched off automatically as soon as these
conditions are lifted.
When the conditions described below cause
the vehicle to come out of Z
eV m

ode and
the Diesel engine to restart, the vehicle
automatically changes to A
u

t
O m
ode.Difficult weather conditions
and circumstances
- If certain conditions or engine temperature requirements make
it necessary (such as an engine
temperature that is too low for the
ambient conditions).
-

W
hen the battery is close to maximum
charge (for example: when going
down a long hill), because engine
recovery being no longer possible, the
internal combustion engine restarts
automatically just to provide engine
braking.
-

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

I
f the vehicle has been parked in the sun
for a prolonged period.
-
W

hen driving in mountainous conditions
(altitude).
Your vehicle is fitted with the most effective
emissions control systems, in particular the
Particle Filter (FAP).
At regular intervals your Diesel engine will
produce energy for the self-cleaning of this filter.
During this FAP regeneration phase, electric
running is purposely made unavailable and
is accompanied by a message " Electric
mode not available: FA P regeneration in
progress ".
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
started since the vehicle was last
star ted).
-

I
f the high voltage battery is not
sufficiently charged. A minimum of
4 bars in Z
eV m

ode so as to ensure
operation over a certain distance
(in A
utO

, electric operation is
accessible for a shorter period with a
lower level of charge).

HYbrid4 frequently asked questions
ZEV (Zero Emissions Vehicle) mode
QuestionAnswer
Why is it not always possible for me to put the vehicle
into Z
eV (

Zero
e
m

issions Vehicle) mode even though
the battery is well charged?
th

is situation is temporary.
Certain conditions will occasionally prevent the change to Z
eV m

ode, even if the battery
has sufficient charge, such as, for example, very cold conditions, altitude, demisting, high
demand for heating or air conditioning, regeneration of the particle filter (FAP).
Why do I sometimes see an alert message "
el

ectric
mode not available: FAP regeneration in progress"?
th

is is an message relating to the regeneration of the particle filter (FAP). t
h
is is a
completely 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.
th

is 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.
Why is it not possible for me to put the vehicle into
Z
eV m

ode, even though I had just been running
electrically in Auto mode?
th

e management of Z
eV i
s different from Auto mode.
Changing to Z
eV m

ode 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.
Why is the range in Z
eV (

Zero e
m
issions Vehicle)
mode lower when climbing?
th

e 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 of Z
eV
(

Zero
e
m

issions Vehicle) mode; it does not return to
Z
eV a

utomatically when the conditions allow? It is not intended to give preference to Z
eV r

unning at any cost, as it is not always the most
economical mode.
So the system returns automatically to Auto mode.

Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place
the heaviest items in the bottom of the boot,
as close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and
reduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack,
bicycle carrier, trailer...). u
s
e 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 aperture,
driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
-

b
efore a long journey,
-

a
t each change of season,
-

a
fter a long period out of use. When refuelling, do not continue after the
3rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any over flow.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine
oil, oil filter, air filter, passenger compartment
filter...) and observe the schedule of
operations recommended in the warranty and
maintenance record. At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after
the first 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you
will see the fuel consumption settle down to a
consistent average.

Heating and Ventilation
Air intake
the air circulating in the passenger compartment
is filtered and originates either from the outside via
the grille located at the base of the windscreen or
from the inside in air recirculation mode.
Controls
the incoming air follows various routes
depending on the controls selected by
the driver, the front passenger and rear
passengers, according to the level of
equipment.
th
e temperature control enables you to obtain
the level of comfort required by mixing the air of
the various circuits.
th

e air distribution control enables you to
select the air vents used in the passenger
compartment by the combined use of the
associated buttons.
th

e air flow control enables you to increase or
reduce the speed of the ventilation fan.
th

ese controls are grouped together on control

In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance
guidelines below:
F
I
f the interior temperature remains very high after the vehicle has been parked in the sun
for a considerable time, first ventilate the passenger compartment for a few minutes.
P

lace the air flow control at a sufficient level to provide an adequate renewal of air in
the passenger compartment.
F
t
o o
btain 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 well
as the air extractor located in the boot.
F
u
s
e in preference the intake of exterior air as prolonged use of the air recirculation may
cause misting of the windows and side windows.
F

D
o not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation
of the automatic air conditioning system.
F

O
perate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month to keep it
in good working order.
F
e
n
sure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter
elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section).
W

e recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. t
h
anks to its
second special active filter, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the
occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic
symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).
F
t
h
e air conditioning uses power from the engine while operating. t
h
is results in an
increase in the vehicle's fuel consumption.
W

hen 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.
C

ondensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water under the
vehicle when stationary, which is per fectly normal.
F
t
o e
nsure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have
it checked regularly.
F

I
f the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a P
e
uge
Ot
dealer or
a qualified workshop.
Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
the air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and does not present
any danger to the ozone layer.
