Overview
heating and air conditioning systems. Its charge
level is represented by bars on a gauge, and
there is a reserve power warning lamp on the
instrument panel.
The 12 V accessory battery 3 powers the vehicle’s
conventional electrical system. It is used to start
the electric motor. This battery is automatically
recharged by the traction battery.
The heat pump 4 provides passenger
compartment heating and regulates traction
battery and on-board charger cooling.
The on-board charger 5 manages traction battery
domestic and accelerated charging.
The electric motor 6 provides motive power, based
on the selected driving mode and the driving
conditions. It recovers energy during vehicle
braking and deceleration phases.

7Eco-driving
Eco-driving
Eco-driving refers to a range of everyday practices
that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel
consumption and CO
2emissions.
Optimise your use of the gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and
change up promptly. While accelerating, change
up early.
With an automatic gearbox, favour automatic
mode and avoid pressing the accelerator pedal
heavily or suddenly.
The gear efficiency indicator prompts you to
engage the most suitable gear: whenever this
indication is displayed on the instrument panel,
follow it straight away.
With an automatic gearbox, this indicator
appears only in manual mode.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use
engine braking rather than the brake pedal and
press the accelerator gradually. These attitudes
help to save fuel, reduce CO
2 emissions and
decrease general traffic noise.
Favour the use of the "Eco" driving mode by
selecting it using the "Drive Mode" control.
If the vehicle has the steering-mounted "CRUISE"
control, use cruise control at speeds above 25
mph (40 km/h) when the traffic is flowing well.
Use electrical equipment wisely
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment
is too warm, ventilate it by opening the windows
and air vents before using the air conditioning.
At speeds above 31 mph (50 km/h), close the
windows and leave the air vents open.
Consider using equipment that can help keep
the temperature in the passenger compartment
down.
Unless automatically regulated, switch off the air
conditioning as soon as the desired temperature
has been reached.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting
functions, if they are not managed automatically.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch off the headlamps and foglamps when the
visibility conditions do not require their use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off,
particularly in winter; your vehicle will warm up
much faster while driving.
As a passenger, avoid connecting your multimedia
devices (film, music, video game, etc.) to help
reduce consumption of electrical energy, and
hence fuel.
Disconnect all portable devices before leaving the
vehicle.
Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the
heaviest items in the boot, as close as possible to
the rear seats. Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and minimise
wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack, bicycle
carrier, trailer, etc.). Preferably, use a roof box.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit
summer tyres.
Comply with servicing instructions
Check tyre pressures regularly, with the tyres
cold, referring to the label in the door aperture on
the driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
–

before a long journe
y.
–

a
t each change of season.
–

a
fter a long period out of use.
Do not overlook the spare wheel and, where
applicable, the tyres on your trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil,
oil filter, air filter, passenger compartment filter,
etc.) and observe the schedule of operations in
the manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system
is faulty, your vehicle will emit pollution; visit a
dealer or a qualified workshop as soon as possible
to restore your vehicle’s nitrogen oxide emissions
to regulatory compliance.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue after
the third nozzle cut-out, to avoid overflow.
You will only see the fuel consumption of your new
vehicle settle down to a consistent average after
the first 1,900 miles (3,000 kilometres).

conditions and the engine temperature make it
necessary.
Wait until the warning lamp goes off before
starting.
When the warning lamp goes off, starting will
occur immediately if you press and hold:
–

ch pedal with a manual gearbox.
–

e pedal with an automatic gearbox.
If the engine does not start, make the engine

With the ignition off, opening the driver's
door activates the indicator, which moves
to the "neutral" position.
Charge level indicator (Electric)

The traction battery charge status and remaining
range are displayed continuously when the
vehicle is started.
With the ignition off, opening the driver's
door activates the indicator.
Associated warning lamps
Two successive alert levels indicate that the
energy available has dropped to a low level:
1st level: Reserve
The state of charge of the traction battery
is low.
Fixed, accompanied by an audible signal.
►  View the remaining range on the instrument
panel.
►  Put the vehicle on charge as soon as possible.
2nd level: Critical
The state of charge of the traction battery
is critical.
Fixed, together with the reserve warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible signal.
►  You must put the vehicle on charge.
The remaining range is no longer
calculated. The drive train power
gradually decreases.
The heating and air conditioning are switched
off (even if the cursor indicating their
consumption is not at the ECO position).
Thermal comfort consumption
indicator (Electric)


The gauge shows the consumption of electric
power for thermal comfort functions.
It concerns the following equipment and systems:
– Heating.
–

Air c
onditioning.
–

F
ront demisting/defrosting.
–

R
ear screen demisting/defrosting.
–

Hea
ted seats.
The traction battery powers the heating and air
conditioning systems.
This equipment and these functions can be used:
–

If the v
ehicle is not plugged in, when the READY
lamp is lit.
–

If the v
ehicle is plugged in, when the ignition is
switched on.
Selecting Eco mode limits the performance of
some equipment. The cursor on the thermal
comfort consumption indicator then moves into
the "ECO" zone.
To quickly heat or cool the passenger
compartment, feel free to temporarily
select the maximum heating or cooling setting.
Excessive use of thermal comfort equipment,
particularly at low speed, can significantly
decrease the vehicle's range.
Remember to optimise equipment settings
upon achieving the desired level of comfort,
and adjust them if necessary whenever you
start the vehicle.
After an extended period without using the
heating, you may notice a slight odour during
the first few minutes of use.
