Peugeot 3008 2016-2023 Driving Driving modes

125Driving6Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.Driving modesThe driving modes available depend on the engine and equipment of the vehicle.Driving modes are selected using one of the following controls, depending on version:1.Pressing the control activates Eco mode. The indicator lamp comes on.2.Pressing the control activates Sport mode. The indicator lamp comes on.3.Pressing the control displays the modes on the instrument panel.When the message disappears, the selected mode is activated and remains indicated on the instrument panel (except Normalmode).With petrol/Diesel enginesWhenever the ignition is switched on, Normaldriving mode is selected by default.NormalTo restore the default settings.EcoTo reduce energy consumption by reducing the performance of the heating and air conditioning, without deactivating them.SportWith a manual gearbox: to obtain more dynamic driving with action on the power steering, accelerator and the possibility of displaying the vehicle’s dynamic settings on the instrument panel.With an automatic gearbox: to obtain more dynamic driving with action on the power steering, accelerator, gear changes and possibility of displaying the vehicle’s dynamic settings on the instrument panel.Coasting modeDepending on version or engine, with an EAT8 gearbox and the gear selector in mode D, except inSportmode, gradually and fully releasing the accelerator pedal allows free-wheeling which can save fuel.A drop in engine speed is normal (rev counter at idle, drop in engine noise).With rechargeable hybrid enginesWhenever the ignition is switched on, Electricdriving mode is selected by default.ElectricAllows driving using 100% electrical energy. The maximum speed is approximately 84 mph (135km/h).When starting the vehicle, if the conditions do not allow the activation or retention of Electricmode, the message "Electric mode currently unavailable" is displayed on the instrument panel. The vehicle automatically changes to Hybrid mode.If an LED comes on under the interior rear view mirror, visible from outside the vehicle, this confirms that you are driving in Electric mode (depending on country of sale).The LED can be deactivated by inserting the tip of a paper clip or other similar object into the hole located underneath the interior rear view mirror.Conditions of activation–Adequate battery charge level. Charging the vehicle after each drive is therefore recommended. Electric mode is available as long as there is power left in the battery.–Outside temperature between approximately -5°C and 45°C. Manually exiting the mode
126Driving►Fully depress the accelerator pedal, or►Select another mode.In case of non-use of the vehicle for a long period (several months), a restart of the petrol engine may occur even if the battery is charged.In the event of multiple starts of the internal combustion engine without a sufficient rise in temperature,Electricmodemay be temporarily unavailable (natural phenomenon of dilution of fuel in oil). The message "Electric mode unavailable: automatic operation in progress" then appears on the instrument panel.To regain normal electrical operation, drive approximately 50 miles (80 km) in "motorway" conditions or approximately 125 miles (200 km) in urban conditions.This phenomenon does not cause any mechanical or electrical damage. It can occur several times in the life of the vehicle.HybridTo optimise the vehicle's fuel consumption by managing the alternating or simultaneous operation of the two types of engine, depending on driving conditions and driving style.In Hybrid mode, it is possible to drive in 100% electric mode if the battery charge level is sufficient and acceleration requirements are moderate.SportTo obtain more dynamic driving in order to benefit from the maximum performance of the vehicle.Electric power is used to supplement the petrol engine as long as there is energy left in the battery.4WD (4-wheel drive)(Depending on version)Improves the vehicle's grip at low and moderate speeds by driving all 4 wheels continuously.4WD mode (4-wheel drive) is especially suited to driving on snow-covered roads and difficult terrain (e.g.mud, sand) as well as ford crossings, at moderate speed.Depending on the driving conditions and the battery charge level, 4WD mode may be 100% electric.If the system does not detect a situation of wheel slipping or poor grip after 300 metres of driving, it switches to Hybrid mode.This mode will be even more effective if the vehicle is fitted with suitable tyres, such as winter tyres.The grip can be improved up to 84 mph (135km/h) using the electric motors; above this speed, the vehicle is driven by the front wheels only.Gear shift indicator(Depending on engine)This system is designed to reduce fuel consumption by recommending the most suitable gear.OperationDepending on the driving situation and the vehicle's equipment, the system may recommend skipping one or more gears.Gear engagement recommendations are not to be considered mandatory. Indeed, the configuration of the road, the traffic density and safety remain determining factors when choosing the best gear. Therefore, the driver remains responsible for deciding whether or not to follow the system’s advice.The system cannot be deactivated.With an automatic gearbox, the system is only active in manual operation.The information appears on the instrument panel, in the form of an arrow and the recommended gear.The system adapts the gear change instructions according to the driving conditions (e.g.slope, load) and driving style (e.g.power demand, acceleration, braking).The system never suggests:–engaging first gear;–engaging reverse gear.
