19Hybrid4 system
Mode selector
The selector allows the driver to select one of the four operating modes offered by the Hybrid4
system.
)
Turn the dial to the right or left; the mode selected is confirmed by illumination of the
corresponding indicator lamp.
ZEV
mode: for 100% electric running.
SPORT
mode: to make use of the maximum
per formance of the vehicle.
4WD
mode: to force 4x4 drive in conditions of
poor grip.
AUTO
mode: for everyday use and optimised
fuel consumption.
By default, the selector is in the AUTO
position when starting the Hybrid4 system, whatever
position it was in when the ignition was switched off.
AUTO mode
This mode is designed to optimise the vehicle's
fuel consumption by managing the alternate
or simultaneous operation of the two motors
according to the conditions and driving style.
When conditions allow, an adequate battery
state of charge and moderate acceleration, the
alternator-starter motor stops the HDi Diesel
engine to provide 100% electric running.

Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel
consumption and CO
2 emissions.
Adapted to your Hybrid4 vehicle
Use gear selector position A
, as this optimises gear changes to suit the circumstances, and
the AUTO
mode of the Hybrid4 mode selector.
When moving off, accelerate normally up to the desired speed ( POWER
zone between 20
and 40 %).
At steady speeds, drive gently with small movements of the accelerator pedal ( ECO
or
CHARGE
zone), to allow running in electric mode when driving at low speed.
Anticipate the need to slow down and use engine braking ( CHARGE
zone), so as to make
use of the recovery of "free" energy, while maintaining light pressure on the accelerator
pedal.
For information on other eco-driving practices, refer to the corresponding section of the
handbook for the vehicle.

Unsuitable circumstances:
- If the state of charge of the high voltage
battery is lower than 4 bars (equal to
50% charged). In AUTO
mode, electric
operation is possible with a lower state of
charge.
- When the speed of the vehicle exceeds
18 mph (30 km/h), if the internal combustion
engine has not already started at least once
since the Hybrid4 system was started.
- When the fuel level enters the reser ve
zone (illumination of the low fuel warning
lamp). Where this reser ve is is being used
up quickly, ZEV
may not be possible for
some time after refuelling.
- During phases of regeneration of the
particle filter (FAP), which is automatically
triggered approximately every 300 miles
(500 kms) for a period of about 10 minutes.
During regeneration of the particle filter,
the particles a brought up to a high
temperature using the HDi Diesel engine;
A message is then displayed: " Electric
mode not available: FAP regeneration
".
Maintaining the performance of
the system:
- If certain conditions or engine temperature
requirements needed by the HDi Diesel
engine are not met (for example, in wintry
conditions).
- Following a prolonged period with the
vehicle parked in the sun.
- When the state of charge of the high
voltage battery is close to the maximum
level (for example: when going down a long
hill using the electric motor for braking),
recovery of the vehicle's kinetic energy
being no longer possible, the HDI Diesel
engine restarts automatically just to
provide engine braking.
- On a steep rising slope.
- Driving at altitude.

Safety warnings related to high voltage
The voltage used for the operation of
the electric motor is in the range 150 to
270 Volts.
Do not handle the components of the high
voltage system (identified by the orange
colour): risk of electrocution and burns!
High voltage cables are routed under the
vehicle (sills); take care not to damage them
when the vehicle is used for off-road activity
(such as covering rough ground).
Before doing any
work on the vehicle,
switch off the ignition
( READY
lamp off).
Take care to position lifting equipment
( jack, hoist, ...) at the locations provided to
avoid damaging the cables.
Never touch, dismantle, remove or
replace the high voltage parts, orange
cables or connectors, even in the event of
an accident.
To avoid any risk to the environment,
the high voltage battery must be
recycled in an appropriate manner.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Be sure to take account of the warning
labels present on the vehicle.
Battery electrolyte is very corrosive: risk of
burns.
No sparks or naked flames.
Do not burn or heat.
Keep out of reach of children.
Do not spray or pour fluids: risk of damage
to the battery.
Emergency cut-off
In the event of an accident, a safety
system automatically cuts-off the high
voltage system and the fuel supply.
The Hybrid4 system can no longer be
started.
You must then contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Operations on the
battery
The high voltage battery must not in
any circumstances be charged from an
external power supply and must only
be handled by a qualified technician
at a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Incorrect handling may lead to serious
burns, as well as electric arcs that could
cause serious injury or even death.

43Frequently asked questions
Reducing consumption / Fuel
Question
Answer
How can I optimise my fuel consumption? Give preference to AUTO
mode as it selects in the best way the "driving energy source" to
use in order to reduce fuel consumption.
You should also adapt your driving style to the characteristics of hybrid vehicles to get the
best out of it, for example by taking your foot off the accelerator pedal rather than braking
and by anticipating decelerations which allows the recovery of "free" energy for charging
the battery (entering a built-up area, stop at traffic lights, stop at halt signs, ...).
Why do I not manage to reduce my fuel consumption
even though I often drive in ZEV
(Zero Emissions
Vehicle) mode? It is not ZEV
mode but AUTO
mode that is the most appropriate for reducing fuel
consumption, as it selects the best "driving energy source".
ZEV
mode (100% electric running) can reduce fuel consumption in some cases. However,
recharging the traction battery has an energy cost.
This is why we recommend using AUTO
mode more often.
Why does the fuel consumption histogram sometimes
display consumption of 28 mpg (10 litres/100 km) in
town? In traffic jams, the fuel consumption graph may temporarily display high values but, as the
distance covered is low, this has very little impact on the average fuel consumption.
In urban driving, your Hybrid4 will remain more efficient in terms of fuel consumption
compared to a conventional vehicle.
Why is my battery rarely fully charged? A partly charged battery is normal operation (4 to 5 bars on average in AUTO
mode).
This allows some capacity to be left free for the recovery of energy when decelerating.
Why are there so may fuel alert messages when
starting to use the reser ve? To encourage you to refuel as soon as possible and to avoid loosing the possibility of all
electric running.
