Activation of the Hybrid4 system
On activation of the Hybrid4 system, the
instrument panel lights up, the power indicator
needle is placed at position " 0 ". The steering
column automatically unlocks (perceptible
noise and movement of the steering column).
Depending on certain parameters, such as the
state of charge of the high voltage battery or
the ambient temperature, the Hybrid4 system
itself determines whether it is necessary to
start the HDi Diesel engine.
The mode selector is at the AUTO position.
In wintry conditions with the
engine cold, the Diesel pre-
heating warning lamp can stay
on for a few seconds; wait until
it goes off before releasing the
brake pedal.
