trip (kWh/100 km) and historical values:
–

Blue graph: energy consumed directly from
the traction battery

.
–

Green graph: energy regenerated during
deceleration and braking phases used to
recharge the

traction battery.

Charging
This page allows you to programme deferred
charging.
For more information on Charging the traction
battery (Rechargeable hybrid), refer to the
corresponding section.
e-SAVE
The e-SAVE function makes it possible to
reserve all or part of the electrical energy of the
traction battery to be used later during a journey
(e.g.
passing through an urban area or an area
reserved for electric vehicles).
►

Activate the function by pressing ON

, then
select the electric range to be reserved ( 6 miles
(10 km), 12 miles (20 km) or the full range
MAX).
Activation of the function is confirmed by the lighting of this indicator lamp on the
instrument panel and the indication of the energy
reserve in miles or kms.
►

T

o use the energy reserve, choose the
Electric driving mode in the mode selector.
If the requested range exceeds the
available range (not recommended), the
internal combustion engine starts to recharge
the traction battery up to the requested
threshold. This leads to excessive fuel
consumption.
Remotely operable
additional functions
(Rechargeable hybrid)
(Depending on country of sale)

The following functions are
available from the MYPEUGEOT
APP application, which is
accessible from a smartphone:
–

Managing the traction battery charging

markings, refer to the corresponding section.
Network coverage
In order to be able to use the various
remotely operable features, ensure that your
vehicle is located in an area covered by the
mobile network.
A lack of network coverage may prevent

if it is in an underground car park). In such
cases, the application will display a message
indicating that the connection with the vehicle
could not be established.

2This operation also closes the sunroof blind.
Make sure that no item or person could
prevent the correct closing of the
windows and sunroof.
Pay particular attention to children when
operating windows.
The locking, and the activation of the alarm
depending on version, is confirmed by the
temporary lighting of the direction indicators.
The door mirrors fold.
Deadlocking
Deadlocking renders the interior door
controls inoperative. It also disables the
central locking button.
The horn remains operational.
Never leave anyone inside the vehicle when it
is deadlocked.


► Press the handle on one of the four doors
(at the markings) or the locking control on the
tailgate to lock the vehicle.
►

Press it again within 5 seconds to deadlock
the vehicle (confirmed by the temporary lighting
of the direction indicators).
"Peugeot Adaptive LED Technology"
With the Full LED 3D rear lamps, the
lamps illuminate in a scrolling pattern upon
locking and unlocking the vehicle.
If one of the doors or the boot is still open
or if the electronic key for the Keyless
Entry and Start

system has been left inside
the vehicle, central locking will not take place.
If the vehicle is unlocked but the doors or
tailgate are not subsequently opened, the
vehicle will automatically lock itself again after
about 30
seconds. If fitted to the vehicle, the
alarm is automatically reactivated (if
previously activated).
Automatic folding/unfolding of the door mirrors is configured in the Settings
>
Vehicle touch screen application.
As a safety measure, never leave the vehicle, even for a short time, without
taking the Keyless Entry and Start system’s
electronic key with you.
Be aware of the risk of theft of the vehicle if
the key is present in one of the defined areas
while the vehicle is unlocked.
To preserve the battery charge in the electronic key and the vehicle's battery,
the "hands-free" functions are set to
hibernation mode after 21 days without use.
To restore these functions, press one of the
remote control buttons or start the engine with
the electronic key in the reader.
For more information on starting with the
Keyless Entry and Start system, refer to the
corresponding section.
Electrical interference
The electronic key may not work if it is
close to an electronic device (e.g.
mobile
telephone (switched on or on standby), laptop
computer, strong magnetic fields). If this
occurs, move the electronic key away from
the electronic device.
Accumulations (water, dust, grime, salt, etc.) on the inner surface of the door
handle may affect detection.
If cleaning the inner surface of the door
handle using a cloth does not restore
detection, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
A sudden splash of water (stream of water,
high pressure jet washer, etc.) may be
identified by the system as the desire to open
the vehicle.
