Starting using another
battery
Never try to start the engine by
connecting a battery charger.
Never use a 24 V or higher battery
b o o s t e r.
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.
The two vehicles must not be in contact
with each other.
Switch off the electrical consumers on
both vehicles (audio system, wipers,
lighting, ...).
Ensure that the jump lead cables do
not pass close to moving parts of the
engine (cooling fan, belts, ...).
Do not disconnect the (+) terminal when
the engine is running.F
St

art the engine of the vehicle with the
good battery and leave it running for a
few
mi
nutes.
F Op erate the starter on the broken down
vehicle and let the engine run.
If t

he engine does not start straight away,
switch off the ignition and wait a few
moments before trying again.
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 or a battery booster.

disconnect the jump lead cables in the
reverse order.

your vehicle has one.

ZEV mode
(all electric)

Zero emissions vehicle operation is assured
100 % by electric drive.
This mode allows silent and clean running
at
moderate speeds.

It can be activated when the
conditions allow, particularly
if the state of charge of high
voltage battery is sufficient (from
4 bars).
In AUTO
mode, the electric motor
:


- can power the vehicle on its own in "zero
emissions" electric running, depending
on the state of charge of the battery, if the
conditions specific to the vehicle are met
and if acceleration is moderate,

- supplements the HDi Diesel
engine
when moving off and changing
gear, during acceleration or when traction
from the front wheels is inadequate,
temporarily providing 4-wheel drive.
The electric motor can operate only at speeds
below 52 mph (85 km/h). It is no longer active
above 75 mph (120 km/h).
Refer to the special conditions for operation of
ZEV
mode.

For more information on the special
conditions for the operation of ZEV

mode, refer to the corresponding
section.

If the conditions do not allow ZEV
mode to be
selected or maintained, the message " Electric
mode is not currently available
" appears in
the screen. The ZEV
indicator lamp flashes for
a few seconds then goes off and the indicator
lamp in the AUTO
position comes on.
In ZEV
mode:


- range and acceleration capacity are
limited; the maximum speed is around
36 mph (60 km/h),

- under high load or a priority requirement
causing the start of the HDi Diesel engine,
the system changes automatically to AUTO

mode.

21Hybrid4 system

This mode will be even more effective if
the vehicle is fitted with suitable tyres,
such as winter tyres.



SPORT mode
(Diesel and
electric)
4WD mode
(4 - wheel drive)

This mode allows more dynamic driving by
providing additional performance
.
By using the capacity of the electric motor
to supplement the power of the HDi Diesel
engine, the vehicle's full power is used for
acceleration and pick-up.
This mode manages the response of the
accelerator, the electronic gearbox and the use
of the electric motor.
In SPORT
mode:


- the electric motor as an addition is
available up to 75 mph (120 km/h).


This "4-wheel drive" mode provides additional
traction
at low speed by driving all four wheels
of the vehicle simultaneously: the HDi Diesel
engine (front wheel drive) and the electric
motor (rear wheel drive) operate simultaneously
and permanently.
Their coupling is managed electronically to
optimise traction when grip is poor.
In 4WD
mode:


- the HDi Diesel engine operates
continuously; if necessary, it supplies
energy for the electric motor,

- the additional traction from the electric
motor is available up to 75 mph (120 km/h).

This mode should be used on snow
covered roads or difficult ground (mud,
sand, ...), as well as for crossing a ford,
at moderate speed.
In this mode, in severe conditions
and if the circumstances allow, it is
recommended that you accelerate
strongly to facilitate moving off and
making progress and so reduce the risk
of getting stuck.

This mode is available whatever:


- the state of charge of the high
voltage battery,

- the altitude.

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.

Air conditioning / Heating



Question



Answer


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 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



Question



Answer


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 components of the Hybrid4 system that are also cooled by the engine's cooling
system.
Why does engine braking seem so strong? If the high voltage battery is not fully charged, the engine braking results mainly from the
energy recovery by the electric motor. The power of this engine braking is higher than that
of an internal combustion engine.
