Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle when
braking.
ta
ke account of the legislation in force in your
country on the use of snow chains and the
maximum running speed authorised.
th

e snow chains must be fitted only
to the front wheels.
t
h
ey must never
be fitted to "space-saver" type spare
wheels.
For more information on snow chains,
contact a P
e

uge
Ot
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Advice on installation
F If you have to fit the chains during a journey, stop the vehicle on a flat sur face
on the side of the road.
F

A
pply the parking brake and position any
wheel chocks to prevent movement of your
vehicle.
F

F

provided by the manufacturer.
F

M

moments, without exceeding 30 mph
(50


km/h).
F

S

chains are correctly tightened.
Avoid driving with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow, to
avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres and
the road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted
with alloy wheels, check that no part of
the chain or its fixings is in contact with
the wheel rim.

Starting using another battery
F Remove the plastic cover from the (+) terminal, if your vehicle has one.
F

C
onnect the red cable to the positive
terminal (+) of the flat battery A , then to the
positive terminal (+) of the slave battery B.
F

C
onnect one end of the green or black
cable to the negative terminal (-) of the slave
battery B (or earth point on the other vehicle).
F

C
onnect the other end of the green or black
cable to the earth point C on the broken
down vehicle (or on the engine mounting).
F

S
tart the engine of the vehicle with the
good battery and leave it running for a few
minutes. First check that the slave battery has a
nominal voltage of 12 V and a capacity
at least equal to that of the discharged
battery.
Do not try to start the engine by
connecting a battery charger.
Do not disconnect the (+) terminal when
the engine is running.
When your vehicle's battery is discharged, the
engine can be started using a slave battery
(external or on another vehicle) and jump lead
cables.
F O perate the starter on the broken down
vehicle and let the engine run.
I

f the engine does not start straight away,
switch off the ignition and wait a few
moments before trying again.
F

W
ait until the engine returns to idle then
disconnect the jump lead cables in the
reverse order.
F

R
efit the plastic cover to the (+) terminal, if
your vehicle has one. Do not disconnect the cables too
quickly; leave them connected for a few
minutes (until the engine returns to idle)
otherwise there is a risk that the battery
would be under-charged, with the need
then to repeat the operation.
Starting the vehicle when the battery
is flat must be done with the electronic
key inside the vehicle, the driver's
door closed and the driver's seat belt
fastened.
Some functions are not available if the
battery is not sufficiently charged.

Load reduction mode
System which manages the use of certain
functions according to the level of charge
remaining in the battery.
When the vehicle is being driven, the load
reduction function temporarily deactivates
certain functions, such as the air conditioning,
the heated rear screen...
th
e deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically as soon as conditions permit. System which manages the duration of use of certain functions to conserve a sufficient level of
charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can still use functions such as the audio and telematics
system,
windscreen wipers, dipped beam headlamps, courtesy lamps, etc. for a maximum
combined duration of about forty minutes.
energy economy mode
Switching to economy mode
A message then appears in the instrument
panel screen indicating that the vehicle has
switched to economy mode and the active
functions are put on standby.
If a telephone call is being made at this time, it
will be maintained for around 10 minutes with
the Bluetooth hands-free system of your audio
system.
Exiting economy mode
these functions are reactivated automatically
next time the vehicle is driven.
F

I
n order to restore the use of these
functions immediately, start the engine and
let it run:
-

f
or less than ten minutes, to use
the equipment for approximately
five


minutes,
-

f
or more than ten minutes, to use the
equipment for up to approximately
thirty


minutes.
Let the engine run for the duration specified to
ensure that the battery charge is sufficient.
Do not repeatedly and continuously restart the
engine in order to charge the battery.
A flat battery prevents the engine from starting
(refer to the "Battery" section).
In this energy economy mode and when
starting up the hybrid system, it may
take a few seconds before the Ready

lamp comes on.
