Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the 
bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance (roof 
bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). u
s
 e a roof box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations on 
maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in 
the door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
-
 
b
 efore a long journey,
-
 
a
 t each change of season,
-
 
a
 fter a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter, 
passenger compartment filter...) and observe the schedule of 
operations recommended in the manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system is faulty your vehicle 
becomes polluting; go to a P
e
uge
Ot
  dealer or a qualified workshop 
without delay to have the emissions of nitrous oxides brought back to 
the legal level.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle to 
avoid any over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 1 800 miles 
(3
  000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to 
a consistent average.

Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where it does not 
block traffic: the ground must be level, 
stable and not slippery.
Apply the parking brake unless it has 
been programmed to automatic mode.
Switch off the ignition.
With a manual gearbox, engage first 
gear to block the wheels.
With an automatic gearbox, place the 
lever in position P to block the wheels.
Check that the braking warning lamp 
and the P warning lamp in the parking 
brake control lever come on. F

Hybrid4 system
508HY-comp_en_Chap00b_hybrid_ed01-2016
  The   electronic power super visor (4)  manages the operation of the two power units, HDi Diesel and electric, giving priority to low fuel consumption.  
  The   alternator-star ter motor (5)  assures the  Stop & Star t  function, which allows the HDi Diesel engine to be put into standby when the vehicle is at a standstill (traffic lights, a stop, or in a traffic jam...) or during phases of running in 100% electric mode. 
 The stopping and restarting of the HDi Diesel engine is done automatically and instantly without any action on the part of the driver.  This alternator-starter motor also provides additional charging of the high-voltage battery by the HDi Diesel engine, if this not sufficiently charged, or in  4WD  mode for example.  
  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 per formance,   -    4WD  (4 Wheel Drive) mode, which improves traction at low speed when grip is poor (snow,  mud,  sand...).

508HY-comp_en_Chap00b_hybrid_ed01-2016
  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.  
  Z E V   m o d e   
(all electric) 
  Zero emissions vehicle operation is assured 100 % by electric drive.  This mode allows  silent and clean running   at moderate  speeds.  
  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  AUTOmode.   
  For more information on the special conditions for the operation of  ZEVmode, refer to the corresponding section.   
  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.

                  Electronic gearbox (ETG6) 
  Six-speed electronic gearbox which offers a choice between two operating modes:    -    automated  mode for automatic control of the gears by the gearbox,   -    manual  mode for sequential gear changing by the driver.   In automated mode, it is possible to change gear manually by using the steering mounted control paddles as desired, when overtaking, for example. 
R.     Reverse    With your foot on the brake, lift the selector and move it for wards.  N.     Neutral.    With your foot on the brake, select this position to start.  A.    Automated mode.    Move the selector backwards to select this mode.  M.    Manual mode with sequential gear changing.    Lift the selector, then move it backwards to select this mode, then use the steering mounted control paddles to change gear.

  Steering mounted control paddles 
 The steering mounted paddles cannot be used to select neutral or to engage or disengage reverse gear.   
  When immobilising the vehicle, with the HYbrid4 system active, you must place the gear selector in neutral  N .  Before carrying out any work in the engine compartment, check that the gear selector is in position  N , that the 
parking brake is applied and that the RE ADY  lamp is off before switching off RE ADY  lamp is off before switching off RE ADYthe  HYbrid4  system.
