Particle filter (diesel)
The start of saturation of the particle
filter is indicated by the temporary
illumination of this warning lamp
accompanied by a message in the
multifunction screen.
As soon as the traffic conditions permit,
regenerate the filter by driving at a
speed of at least 40 mph (60 km/h) until
the warning lamp goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, this
indicates a low additive level.
On a new vehicle, the first particle
filter regeneration operations may be
accompanied by a "burning" smell,
which is per fectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you may, in exceptional circumstances,
notice the emission of water vapour at
the exhaust on acceleration. This does
not affect the behaviour of the vehicle
or the environment.
Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of the
replacement intervals for these
components.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Replace the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of
the replacement interval for this
component.
Oil filter
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle (e.g.
city driving), replace them twice as often if
necessary
.
A clogged passenger compartment filter may
have an adverse effect on the per formance
of the air conditioning system and generate
undesirable odours.

ECO OFF function
This function prevents the HDi Diesel engine being switched off and so ensures that a comfortable temperature can be maintained in the passenger compartment (air conditioning running continuously). On pressing the ECO OFF switch, the HDi Diesel engine restarts immediately. To return to normal operation, press this switch again. After switching off the ignition, the vehicle will return to normal operation (lamp in the switch off).
* E x c e p t i n ZEV mode, which gives preference to electric running over maintaining a comfortable temperature.
During electric running and when the engine is stopped, the hybrid system manages restarting automatically to maintain the temperature in the passenger compartment * . However, variations in temperature may still be felt in very hot climates. To avoid any discomfort in these conditions you can operate the ECO OFF s w i t c h .

Special conditions for the operation of ZEV mode
ZEV mode can be selected when all of the conditions for its operation are met, in particular an adequate state of charge of the battery (50% at least). In the situations described below, the HDi Diesel must be running; accordingly, ZEVmode cannot be selected or is deactivated automatically. The mode selector remains at or returns to the AUTO position to allow starting of the HDi Diesel engine, as required.
- Manual gear change when in automatic mode using the steering mounted controls for the electronic gearbox.
Cases of non availability of ZEV mode or automatic return
to AUTO mode
- Selection of manual mode by moving the gear selector for the electronic gearbox to position M .
- Sustained and sharp acceleration.
- Use of demisting / defrosting.
- Intensive use of air conditioning.

Frequently asked questions
100% electric mode (zero emissions)
QuestionAnswer
Why is it not always possible for me to select ZEV(Zero Emissions Vehicle) mode even though the battery seems well charged?
This situation is temporary. Certain conditions will occasionally prevent the change to ZEV mode, 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 "Electric mode not available: FAP regeneration in progress"? This is an message relating to the regeneration of the particle filter (FAP). This 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 Diesel vehicle. In the case of a conventional HDi Diesel vehicle, this process is not generally noticed by the driver. On the other hand, in the case of Hybrid4 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 ZEVmode, even though I had just been running electrically in AUTO mode?
The management of ZEV is different from ZEV is different from ZEVAUTO mode. Changing to ZEV mode is only possible with a battery charge of at least 4 bars, in order to ZEV mode is only possible with a battery charge of at least 4 bars, in order to ZEVassure 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 ZEV mode lower when going uphill? The vehicle needs more energy when going uphill than when running on the level. So it is better to stay in AUTO mode, which will favour operation of the HDi Diesel engine.
Why is it that the system makes me come out of ZEVmode; it does not return to ZEV mode automatically when the conditions allow?
It is not intended to give preference to ZEV running at any cost, as it is not always the most economical mode. So the system returns automatically to AUTO mode.

DS5Hy4_en_Chap11_questions-frequentes_ed01-2015
Air conditioning / Heating
QuestionAnswer
It seems to me that the vehicle runs less on electric when the heating or air conditioning is operating, is that right?
The demand for heating or air conditioning may require the starting of the HDi Diesel engine until the desired level of comfort is attained. Normal operation of the Hybrid4 system is simply put back. The period can be longer under very low or very high ambient temperatures.
It seems to me that when it is very hot and the air conditioning is working, the vehicle runs on electric for shorter periods. Is that right?
When it is hot, the periods when the HDi Diesel engine is put on standby and the vehicle runs on electric 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).
Miscellaneous
QuestionAnswer
Is towing possible with my Hybrid4 vehicle? For information on the towing ability of your Hybrid4 vehicle, refer to " Weights and towed loads" in the "Technical data" section. This allows a jet ski or two-wheeler on a trailer to be towed, for example. This limit is related to maintaining adequate cooling capacity for the HDi Diesel engine as well as the hybrid components that are also cooled by the engine's cooling system.
Why does engine braking seem so strong? When you take your foot off the accelerator, the engine braking results mainly from the energy recovery by the electric motor. This leads to a higher level of deceleration than a conventional vehicle and so allows the recovery of "free" energy.
