2016 Citroen DS5 HYBRID four wheel drive

DS5_en_Chap04_conduite_ed02-2015
Tyre under-inflation detection
System which automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system continuously monitors the
pressures of the four tyres, as soon as the
vehicle is moving.
A pressure sensor is located in the valve of
each tyre (except the spare wheel).
The system triggers an alert if a drop in
pressure is detected in one or more tyres.This system does not avoid the need
to check the tyre pressures regularly
(including the spare wheel) and before
a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres
adversely affects road holding,
extends braking distances and causes
premature tyre wear, particularly under
arduous conditions (vehicle loaded,
high speed, long journey).
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
The tyre pressures for your vehicle can
be found on the tyre pressure label.
The tyre pressures must be checked
when the tyres cold (vehicle stopped
for 1 hour or after driving for less then
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speed).
Other wise, add 0.3 bar to the values
indicated on the label.
For more information on identification
markings, including the tyre pressure
label, refer to the corresponding
section.
The tyre under-inflation detection
system is an aid to driving which does
not replace the need for vigilance on
the part of the driver.

Under-inflation alert
The aler t is given by the fixed illumination
of this warning lamp, accompanied by
an audible signal, and depending on
equipment, the display of a message.
In the event of a problem on one of the tyres,
the symbol or the message appears, according
to equipment, to identify it.
F
Re
duce speed, avoid sudden steering
movements or harsh brake applications.
F
St

op as soon as it is safe to do so. The alert is maintained until the tyre or
tyres concerned is reinflated, repaired
or replaced.
The spare wheel (space-saver type or a
steel rim) does not have a sensor.
The loss of pressure detected does not
always lead to visible deformation of
the tyre.
Do not rely on just a visual check.
Operating fault
The flashing and then fixed
illumination of the under-inflation
warning lamp accompanied by the
illumination of the service warning
lamp indicates a fault with the system.
This alert is also displayed when one or
more wheels is not fitted with a sensor
(for example, a space-saver or steel
spare wheel).
Go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop
t

o have the system checked or,
following the repair of a puncture, to have the
original wheel, equipped with a sensor, refitted. In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures is
not assured.
F
If y

ou have a compressor (the one in the
temporary puncture repair kit for example),
check the four tyre pressures when cold.
If i

t is not possible to check the tyre
pressures at the time, drive carefully at
reduced speed.
or
F In t

he event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (according to equipment). Any tyre repair or replacement on a wheel
fitted with this system must be carried out by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
If after changing a tyre, a wheel is not detected
by your vehicle (fitting snow tyres for example),
you must have the system reinitialised by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.

dSc/ASRAfter an impact, have these systems
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The DSC and ASR systems offer increased
safety in normal driving, but they should not
encourage the driver to take extra risks or
drive at high speed.
It is in conditions of reduced grip (rain,
snow, black ice) that the risk of loss of grip
increases. It is therefore important for your
safety to keep the DSC and ASR systems
activated in all conditions, and particularly
in difficult conditions. The correct operation of these systems
depends on observation of the
manufacturer's recommendations regarding
as much the wheels (tyres and rims),
braking and electronic components as the
assembly and repair procedures used by
CITROËN dealers.
To benefit in full from the effectiveness
of the DSC and ASR systems in wintry
conditions, the vehicle must be fitted with
four snow tyres, allowing the the vehicle to
retain neutral handling on the road.

General recommendations
Observe the legislation in force in your country.
Ensure that the weight of the towing vehicle is higher than that of the towed vehicle.
The driver must remain at the wheel of the towed vehicle and must have a valid driving
licence.
When towing a vehicle with all four wheels on the ground, always use an approved towing
arm; rope and straps are prohibited.
The towing vehicle must move off gently.
When towing a vehicle with the engine off, there is no longer any power assistance for
braking or steering.
In the following cases, you must always call on a professional recovery service:
-
ve
hicle broken down on a motor way or fast road,
-

-
wh

en it is not possible to put the gearbox into neutral, unlock the steering, or release
the parking brake,
-
to

wing with only two wheels on the ground,
-
wh

Practical information

7Hybrid4 system

Compared to a manual gearbox, the ETG6
electronic gearbox (6)
provides, in automatic
mode, significant savings in fuel consumption,
through the electronic management of gear
changes.
The mode selector (8)
allows selection of the
four operating modes offered by the Hybrid4
system:


- AUTO
mode, which optimises fuel
consumption by automatically managing
the alternate or simultaneous use of the
two motors,

- ZEV
(Zero Emissions Vehicle) mode, which
provides 100% electric drive, when the
driving conditions and the state of charge
of the battery permit,

- SPORT
mode, which provides more
dynamic driving with additional
performance,

- 4WD
(4 Wheel Drive) mode, which
improves traction at low speed when grip is
poor (snow, mud, sand...).

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.
