The

rechargeable hybrid

technology combines

two sources of energy: that of the petrol engine

and that of the electric motor, which drive the

front wheels (traction).

The engine and the motor can operate

alternately or simultaneously, according to the

driving mode selected and the driving conditions.

The electric power alone provides the mobility

of the vehicle in

Electric

mode, and in

Hybrid

mode in case of moderate demand. It assists the

petrol engine during starting and acceleration

phases.

The electric power is supplied by a rechargeable

traction battery.

Eco-driving

Eco-driving refers to a range of everyday

practices that allow the motorist to optimise

the vehicle's energy consumption (fuel and/or

electricity) and CO

emissions.

Optimise your use of the gearbox

With an automatic gearbox, favour automatic

mode. Do not depress the accelerator pedal

heavily or suddenly.

The gear shift 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 practices

help to save on energy consumption, reduce

emissions and decrease general traffic

noise.

When the traffic is flowing smoothly, select the

cruise control.

Control the use of electrical equipment

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 (e.g. sunroof blind, window blinds).

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.

Adapt the use of headlamps and/or foglamps

depending on visibility conditions.

Avoid running the engine before moving off,

particularly in winter (other than in severe wintry

conditions: temperature below -23°C). The

vehicle will warm up much faster while driving.

As a passenger, avoid connecting your

multimedia devices (e.g. film, music, video

game) to help reduce the consumption of energy.

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 (e.g. roof bars, roof

rack, bicycle carrier, trailer). 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 the 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 journey.

– at each change of season.

– after a long period out of use.

Do not forget the spare wheel and, where

applicable, the tyres on your trailer or caravan.

Have your vehicle serviced regularly (e.g. engine

oil, oil filter, air filter, passenger compartment

filter, etc.). Observe the schedule of operations in

the manufacturer's service schedule.

When filling the fuel tank, do not continue after

the third cut-out of the nozzle, 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).

Optimising the driving range

(rechargeable hybrid vehicles)

Connect the vehicle as soon as possible.

Favour the

ECO

zone of the power indicator by

driving smoothly and at a steady speed.

Anticipate slowing down as much as possible

and, if possible, favour decelerations with

regenerative braking mode activated (power

indicator in the

CHARGE

zone).

With the vehicle connected, carry out

temperature pre-conditioning before setting off.

To optimise consumption during a journey:
