508HY-comp_en_Chap00b_hybrid_ed01-2016
You can change the operating mode of the HYbrid4 system at any time using its mode selector. Driving in ZEV mode requires that particular conditions be met.
Moving off
 Move the gear selector to position A(automatic mode) or M (manual mode) or R(reverse).
For more information on the electric parking brake, refer to the corresponding section in the handbook for the vehicle.
When your vehicle vehicle moves off in electric mode, it makes no noise. Be very careful of pedestrians, cyclists... as, because of this, they will not hear you coming.
Using automatic mode with the
electronic gearbox optimises gear changes and so gives more economical driving.
 If automatic operation of the electric parking brake has been deactivated, pull then release the control lever to release the parking brake manually.  Progressively release the brake pedal.  With the parking brake released, the vehicle then moves off. If the parking brake is still applied and is in automatic mode, accelerate progressively.

Driving recommendations
Observe the driving regulations and remain vigilant whatever the traffic conditions. Pay close attention to the traffic and keep your hands on the wheel so that you are ready to react at any time to any eventuality. On a long journey, a break every two hours is strongly recommended. In difficult weather, drive smoothly, anticipate the need to brake and increase the distance from other vehicles.
Driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving on flooded roads, as this could cause serious damage to the internal combustion engine or electric motor, the electronic gearbox, or the electrical
systems of your vehicle.
- check that the depth of water does not exceed 15 cm, taking account of waves that might be generated by other users, - place the mode selector in the 4WDposition, - drive as slowly as possible without stalling. In all cases, do not exceed 6 mph (10 km/h),
- do not stop and do not switch off the engine.
On leaving the flooded road, as soon as circumstances allow, make several light brake applications to dry the brake discs and pads.
If in doubt on the state of your vehicle, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
If you are obliged to drive through water: Important!
Never drive with the parking brake applied - Risk of overheating and damage to the braking system! Do not park or run the engine when stationary in areas where inflammable
substances and materials (dry grass, dead leaves...) might come into contact with the hot exhaust system or certain components of the HYbrid4 system which can reach very high temperatures - Risk of fire!
Never leave a vehicle unsupervised with the engine running. If you have to leave your vehicle with the engine running, apply the parking brake and put the electronic gearbox into position N .
