Energy economy modeSystem which manages the period of use of certain functions to conserve a sufficient level of charge in the battery.
A fter   the   engine   has   stopped,   you   can   still   use   functions   such   as   the   audio   equipment,   windscreen   wipers,   dipped   beam   headlamps,   courtesy   lamps,  
e

tc.   for   a   maximum   combined   period   of   thirty   minutes.
This
  period   may   be   greatly   reduced   if  
t

he   battery   is   not   fully   charged.
A
  flat   battery   prevents   the   engine   from  
s

tarting   (refer   to   the   corresponding  
par

agraph).
If
  the   telephone   is   being   used   at   the  
s

ame   time   on   the   eMyWay   audio  
n

avigation   system,   it   will   be   interrupted  
a

fter   10   minutes.
Switching to economy mode
Once this period has elapsed, a message appears   on   the   multifunction   screen   indicating  
t

hat   the   vehicle   has   switched   to   economy   mode  
a

nd   the   active   functions   are   put   on   standby.
Exiting economy mode
These functions are reactivated automatically the   next   time   the   vehicle   is   driven.
F
 
I
n   order   to   resume   the   use   of   these  
f

unctions   immediately,   start   the   engine   and  
l

et   it   run   for   a   few   minutes.
The
  time   available   to   you   will   then   be   double  
t

he   period   for   which   the   engine   is   left   running.  
H

owever, this period will always be between
five
  and   thirty   minutes.
