Frequently Asked Questions - 508 Hybrid4 (2016) PEUGEOT

How do I charge the hybrid battery?
Use the provided charging cable with a standard 230V wall socket. The charging port is located on the rear-left side of the vehicle. Charging time is approximately 4.5 hours for a full charge.
What is the electric range of the Peugeot 508 Hybrid4?
The electric range is about 28 km (NEDC cycle) under favorable conditions. Actual range depends on driving style, terrain, and battery temperature.
How do I select driving modes?
Use the Mode button on the center console to toggle between Auto, Zero Emission, Sport, and 4WD modes. Each mode optimizes hybrid system performance.
What type of engine oil is recommended?
Peugeot recommends 5W-30 grade oil meeting ACEA C2 standard for the diesel engine. Always check the oil level using the dipstick.
How often should I service the vehicle?
Service intervals are every 20,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first. The hybrid system requires specialized service, so visit an authorized Peugeot dealer.
What should I do if the hybrid system warning light comes on?
Reduce speed and drive cautiously to the nearest authorized service center. Do not attempt to repair high-voltage components yourself; they can cause serious injury.
Can I tow a trailer with the 508 Hybrid4?
Yes, towing capacity is up to 1500 kg (braked trailer). However, towing reduces electric range and fuel economy. Ensure the trailer hitch is correctly installed.
How do I check tire pressure?
Use a tire pressure gauge and inflate tires to the recommended pressures listed on the driver's door sill. Front: 2.3 bar (33 psi), Rear: 2.5 bar (36 psi) for normal load.
What is the correct fuel for the 508 Hybrid4?
Use diesel fuel that meets EN 590 standard. Avoid biodiesel blends above B5, as they may damage the engine and hybrid components.
Where can I find replacement parts?
Genuine Peugeot parts are available at authorized dealerships and online. For hybrid-specific parts (battery, electric motor), always consult a dealer to ensure compatibility.

Eco-driving

Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions.

Optimise the use of your gearbox

With a manual gearbox, move off gently and change up without waiting. During acceleration change up early.

With an automatic or electronic gearbox, give preference to automatic mode and avoid pressing the accelerator pedal heavily or suddenly.

The gear shift indicator invites you to engage the most suitable gear: as soon as the indication is displayed in the instrument panel, follow it straight away.

For vehicles fitted with an electronic or 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 progressively. These practices contribute towards a reduction in fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions and also help to reduce the background traffic noise.

If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of the system at speeds above 25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffic is flowing well.

Control the use of your 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.

Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the windows and leave the air vents open. Remember to make use of equipment that can help keep the temperature in the passenger compartment down (sunroof and window blinds...).

Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic regulation, as soon as the desired temperature is attained.

Switch off the demisting and defrosting controls, if not automatic. Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.

Switch off the headlamps and front foglamps when the level of light does 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, if you avoid connecting your multimedia devices (film, music, video game...), you will contribute towards limiting the consumption of electrical energy, and so of fuel.

Disconnect your portable devices before leaving the vehicle.

Limit the causes of excess consumption

Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the rear seats. Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in preference. Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.

At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.

Observe the recommendations on maintenance

Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in the door aperture, 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.

Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or caravan.

Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter, passenger compartment filter...) and observe the schedule of operations recommended in the manufacturer's service schedule.

With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system is faulty your vehicle becomes polluting; go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop without delay to have the emissions of nitrous oxides brought back to the legal level.

When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any overflow.

At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to a consistent average.

Never put a finger into the tailgate locking system: risk of serious injury!

To avoid the risk of injury, ensure that no one is close to the rear of the vehicle when opening or closing the tailgate.

Adjusting the opening height

The maximum opening height of the tailgate can be set and memorised (restricted overhead clearance, ...).

This memorisation is done in two steps, by successive presses on button C:

  • during opening, a first press stops the tailgate at the desired height,
  • a second maintained press memorises the position of the tailgate; an audible signal confirms the memorisation.
    To delete this memorisation, make a new maintained press until the audible signal is heard.

"Boot open" warning

With the engine running or when the vehicle is moving, if the tailgate is not properly closed, a message accompanied by an audible signal (from 6 mph (10 km/h)) is displayed in the instrument panel screen.

The tailgate is not designed to support a bicycle carrier. If fitting a bicycle carrier to a towbar, the automatic operation must be deactivated.

i Precautions in use

If snow has accumulated on the tailgate, remove the snow before any automatic operation of the tailgate. Ice can prevent opening of the tailgate: wait until the ice has melted following heating of the passenger compartment. When washing the vehicle in an automatic car wash, don't forget to lock your vehicle to prevent any risk of unwanted opening.

Repeated opening and closing of the tailgate can overheat the electric motor; neither closing nor opening is then possible.

Allow the motor to cool down for ten minutes before operating the tailgate again.

! Lost keys, remote control, electronic key

Visit a PEUGEOT dealer with the vehicle's registration certificate, your personal identification documents and if possible, the label bearing the key code.

The PEUGEOT dealer will be able to retrieve the key code and the transponder code required to order a new key.

Remote control

The high frequency remote control is a sensitive system; do not operate it while it is in your pocket as there is a possibility that it may unlock the vehicle, without you being aware of it.

Do not repeatedly press the buttons of your remote control out of range and out of sight of your vehicle. You run the risk of stopping it from working and the remote control would have to be reinitialised.

The remote control does not operate when the key is in the ignition, even when the ignition is switched off.

Locking the vehicle

Driving with the doors locked may make access to the passenger compartment by the emergency services more difficult in an emergency. As a safety precaution (with children on board), remove the key from the ignition or take the electronic key when you leave the vehicle, even for a short time.

Electrical interference

The Keyless Entry and Starting electronic key may not operate if close to certain electronic devices: telephone, laptop computer, strong magnetic fields, ...

Anti-theft protection

Do not make any modifications to the electronic engine immobiliser system; this could cause malfunctions.

Don't forget to turn the steering to engage the steering lock.

When purchasing a second-hand vehicle

Have the key codes memorised by a PEUGEOT dealer, to ensure that the keys in your possession are the only ones which can start the vehicle.

Heating and Ventilation

Air intake

The air circulating in the passenger compartment is filtered and originates either from the outside via the grille located at the base of the windscreen or from the inside in air recirculation mode.

Controls

The incoming air follows various routes depending on the controls selected by the driver, the front passenger and rear passengers, according to the level of equipment.

The temperature control enables you to obtain the level of comfort required by mixing the air of the various circuits.

The air distribution control enables you to select the air vents used in the passenger compartment by the combined use of the associated buttons.

The air flow control enables you to increase or reduce the speed of the ventilation fan.

These controls are grouped together on control panel A on the centre console.

i Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning

In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance guidelines below:

If the interior temperature remains very high after the vehicle has been parked in the sun for a considerable time, first ventilate the passenger compartment for a few minutes.

Place the air flow control at a sufficient level to provide an adequate renewal of air in the passenger compartment.

To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well as the air extractor located in the boot.
In normal conditions, use the intake of exterior air as prolonged use of the air recirculation may cause misting of the windows and side windows.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation of the automatic air conditioning system.
Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month to keep it in good working order.
Ensure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section).

We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. Thanks to its second special active filter, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).

The air conditioning uses power from the engine while operating. This results in an increase in the vehicle's fuel consumption.

When towing at or near maximum capacity or on steep slopes in high ambient temperatures, switching off the air conditioning saves engine power and so improves towing capacity.

Condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water under the vehicle when stationary, which is perfectly normal.

To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have it checked regularly.
If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - i Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning - 1

The air conditioning system does not contain chlorine and does not present any danger to the ozone layer.

Emergency or assistance call

SOS

This system allows you to make an emergency or assistance call to the emergency services or to the dedicated PEUGEOT service.

For more information on the use of this function, refer to the "Audio equipment and telematics" section.

Electronic stability control (ESC)

Electronic stability control (ESC) incorporating the following systems:

  • anti-lock braking system (ABS) and electronic brake force distribution (EBFD),
  • emergency braking assistance (EBA),
  • wheel anti-slip regulation (ASR) or traction control,
  • dynamic stability control (DSC).

Definitions

Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and electronic brake force distribution (EBFD)

This system improves the stability and manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking and contributes towards improved control on corners, in particular on poor or slippery road surfaces.

The ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of emergency braking.

The EBFD manages the braking pressure wheel by wheel.

Emergency braking assistance (EBA)

In an emergency, this system enables you to reach the optimum braking pressure more quickly and therefore reduce the stopping distance.

It is triggered according to the speed at which the brake pedal is pressed. This is felt by a reduction in the resistance of the pedal and an increase in the effectiveness of the braking.

Anti-slip regulation (ASR)

The ASR system (also known as Traction Control) optimises traction in order to limit wheel slip by acting on the brakes of the driving wheels and on the engine. It also improves the directional stability of the vehicle on acceleration.

Dynamic stability control (DSC)

If there is a difference between the path followed by the vehicle and that required by the driver, the DSC monitors each wheel and automatically acts on the brake of one or more wheels and on the engine to return the vehicle to the required path, within the limits of the laws of physics.

Snow driving assistance (Intelligent Traction Control)

Your vehicle has a system to help driving on snow: Intelligent Traction Control.

This automatic system continuously checks for situations of difficult surface adhesion that could make it difficult to move off or make progress on deep fresh snow or compacted snow.

In these situations, Intelligent Traction Control limits the amount of wheel slip to provide the best traction and trajectory control. In extremely severe conditions (deep snow, mud...), it can be useful to temporarily deactivate the wheel anti-slip regulation system to allow a degree of wheel spin and so recover grip.

It is recommended that the system be reactivated as soon as possible. Snow tyres are strongly recommended on surfaces offering low levels of adhesion.

Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and electronic brake force distribution (EBFD)

Operation

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Operation - 1

i

When changing wheels (tyres and rims), make sure that these are approved for your vehicle.

Normal operation of the ABS may make itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake pedal.

!

In emergency braking, press very firmly without releasing the pressure.

On switching on the ignition, warning lamp 1 comes on in the instrument panel and the corresponding

warning lamp (2 to 6) comes on in red in the passenger's seat belt and front airbag warning lamp display if the corresponding seat belt is not fastened or is unfastened.

Advice

The driver must ensure that passengers use the seat belts correctly and that they are all fastened before setting off.

Wherever you are seated in the vehicle, always fasten your seat belt, even for short journeys.

Do not interchange the seat belt buckles as they will not fulfil their role fully.

The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel permitting automatic adjustment of the length of the strap to your size. The seat belt is stowed automatically when not in use. Before and after use, ensure that the seat belt is reeled in correctly.

The lower part of the strap must be positioned as low as possible on the pelvis. The upper part must be positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.

The inertia reels are fitted with an automatic locking device which comes into operation in the event of a collision, emergency braking or if the vehicle rolls over. You can release the device by pulling the strap firmly and then releasing it so that it reels in slightly.

In order to be effective, a seat belt must:

  • be tightened as close to the body as possible.
  • be pulled in front of you with a smooth movement, checking that it does not twist,
  • be used to restrain only one person,
  • not bear any trace of cuts or fraying.
  • not be converted or modified to avoid affecting its performance.

In accordance with current safety regulations, for all repairs on your vehicle's seat belts, go to a qualified workshop with the skills and equipment needed, which a PEUGEOT dealer is able to provide.

Have your seat belts checked regularly by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop, particularly if the straps show signs of damage.

Clean the seat belt straps with soapy water or a textile cleaning product, sold by PEUGEOT dealers.

After folding or moving a seat or rear bench seat, ensure that the seat belt is positioned and reeled in correctly.

Recommendations for children

Use a suitable child seat if the passenger is less than 12 years old or shorter than one and a half metres.

Never use the same seat belt to secure more than one person.

Never allow a child to travel on your lap.

For more information on child seats, refer to the corresponding section.

In the event of an impact

Depending on the nature and seriousness of the impact, the

pretensioning device may be deployed before and independently of the airbags.

Deployment of the pretensioners is accompanied by a slight discharge of harmless smoke and a noise, due to the activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in the system.

In all cases, the airbag warning lamp comes on.

Following an impact, have the seat belts system checked, and if necessary replaced, by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Airbags

General information

System designed to contribute towards improving the safety of the occupants (with the exception of the rear centre passenger) in the event of violent collisions. The airbags supplement the action of the seat belts fitted with force limiters (all except the centre rear passenger belt).

If a collision occurs, the electronic detectors record and analyse the front and side impacts sustained in the impact detection zones:

- in the case of a serious impact, the airbags are deployed instantly and contribute towards better protection of the occupants of the vehicle (with the exception of the rear centre passenger); immediately after the impact, the airbags deflate rapidly so that they do not hinder visibility or the exit of the occupants,

- in the case of a minor or rear impact or in certain roll-over conditions, the airbags may not be deployed; the seat belt alone contributes towards ensuring your protection in these situations.

! The airbags do not operate when the ignition is switched off.

This equipment will only deploy once. If a second impact occurs (during the same or a subsequent accident), the airbag will not be deployed again.

A B B

Impact detection zones

A. Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone.

Deployment of one or more of the airbags is accompanied by a slight emission of smoke and a noise, due to the activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in the system. This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive individuals may experience slight irritation. The noise of detonation associated with the deployment of one or more airbags may result in a slight loss of hearing for a short time.

Front airbags

Two identical circular diagrams with internal leaf-like patterns, no text or symbols present

System which protects the driver and front passenger in the event of a serious front impact in order to limit the risk of injury to the head and thorax.

The driver's airbag is fitted in the centre of the steering wheel; the front passenger's airbag is fitted in the dashboard above the glove box.

Deployment

The airbags are deployed, except the passenger's front airbag if it is deactivated, in the event of a serious front impact to all or part of the front impact zone A, in the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal plane and directed from the front to the rear of the vehicle.

The front airbag inflates between the thorax and head of the front occupant of the vehicle and the steering wheel, driver's side, and the dashboard, passenger's side to cushion their forward movement.

With the ignition on, this warning lamp comes on in the seat belt and passenger's front airbag warning lamp display for approximately one minute, if the passenger's front airbag is activated.

Operating fault

If this warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible warning and a message in the instrument panel screen, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop to have the system checked. The airbags may no longer be deployed in the event of a serious impact.

Lateral airbags

AIRBAG

System which protects the driver and front passenger in the event of a serious side impact in order to limit the risk of injury to the chest, between the hip and the shoulder.

Each lateral airbag is fitted in the seat backrest frame, door side.

Deployment

A lateral airbag is deployed unilaterally in the event of a serious side impact applied to all or part of the side impact zone B, perpendicular to the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal plane and directed from the outside towards the inside of the vehicle.

The lateral airbag inflates between the hip and shoulder of the front occupant of the vehicle and the corresponding door trim panel.

Impact detection zones

A. Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone.

Curtain airbags

System which protects the driver and passengers (with the exception of the rear centre passenger) in the event of a serious side impact in order to limit the risk of injury to the side of the head.

Each curtain airbag is built into the pillars and the upper passenger compartment area.

Deployment

The curtain airbag is deployed at the same time as the corresponding lateral airbag in the event of a serious side impact applied to all or part of the side impact zone B, perpendicular to the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal plane and directed from the outside towards the inside of the vehicle.

The curtain airbag inflates between the front or rear occupant of the vehicle and the windows.

Operating fault

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Operating fault - 1

If this warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible signal and a message in the

instrument panel screen, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop to have the system checked. The airbags may no longer be deployed in the event of a serious impact.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Operating fault - 2

In the event of a minor impact or bump on the side of the vehicle or if the vehicle rolls over, the airbag may not be deployed.

In the event of a rear or front collision, the lateral and curtain airbags are not deployed.

! Advice

For the airbags to be fully effective, observe the safety recommendations below:

Sit in a normal upright position.

Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.

Do not leave anything between the occupants and the airbags (a child, pet, object...), nor fix or attach anything close to the inflation trajectory of the airbags; this could cause injuries during their deployment.

Never modify the original definition of your vehicle, particularly in the area directly around the airbags.

After an accident or if the vehicle has been stolen or broken into, have the airbag systems checked.

All work on the airbag system must be carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Even if all of the precautions mentioned are observed, a risk of injury or of minor burns to the head, chest or arms when an airbag is deployed cannot be ruled out. The bag inflates almost instantly (within a few milliseconds) then deflates within the same time discharging the hot gas via openings provided for this purpose.

Front airbags

Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its spokes or resting your hands on the centre part of the wheel.

Passengers must not place their feet on the dashboard.

Do not smoke as deployment of the airbags can cause burns or the risk of injury from a cigarette or pipe.

Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or hit it violently.

Do not fit or attach anything to the steering wheel or dashboard, this could cause injuries with deployment of the airbags.

Lateral airbags

Use only approved covers on the seats, compatible with the deployment the lateral airbags. For information on the range of seat covers suitable for your vehicle, you can contact a PEUGEOT dealer.

For more information on accessories, refer to the corresponding section.

Do not fix or attach anything to the seat backs (clothing...). This could cause injury to the chest or arms if the lateral airbag is deployed.

Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than necessary.

Curtain airbags

Do not fix or attach anything to the roof. This could cause injury to the head if the curtain airbag is deployed.

If fitted on your vehicle, do not remove the grab handles installed on the roof, they play a part in securing the curtain airbags.

General points relating to child seats

Although one of PEUGEOT main criteria when designing your vehicle, the safety of your children also depends on you.

For maximum safety, please observe the following recommendations:

  • in accordance with European regulations, all children under the age of 12 or less than one and a half metres tall must travel in approved child seats suited to their weight, on seats fitted with a seat belt or ISOFIX mountings*,
  • statistically, the safest seats in your vehicle for carrying children are the rear seats,
  • a child weighing less than 9 kg must travel in the rearward facing position both in the front and in the rear.

PEUGEOT recommends that children should travel in the outer rear seats of your vehicle:

  • rearward facing up to the age of 3,
  • forward facing over the age of 3.

Safety

Child seat at the rear

Top-down line drawing of a car showing the rear and side views of the roof (no text or symbols)

Rearward facing

When a rearward facing child seat is installed on a rear passenger seat, move the vehicle's front seat forward and straighten the backrest so that the rearward facing child seat does not touch the vehicle's front seat.

Top-down line drawing of a car showing the rear and side views of the roof (no text or symbols)

Forward facing

When a forward facing child seat is installed on a rear passenger seat, move the vehicle's front seat forward and straighten the backrest so that the legs of the child in the forward facing child seat do not touch the vehicle's front seat.

Centre rear seat

A child seat with a support leg must never be installed on the centre rear passenger seat.

The incorrect installation of a child seat in a vehicle compromises the protection of the child in the event of an accident.

i Ensure that the seat belt is correctly tensioned. For child seats with a support leg, ensure that this is in firm contact with the floor. If necessary, adjust the front seat of the vehicle.

Safety

Child seat at the front*

Rearward facing Forward facing

When a rearward facing child seat is installed on the front passenger seat, adjust the seat to the fully back and highest position, with the backrest straightened.

The passenger's front airbag must be deactivated. Otherwise, the child risks being seriously injured or killed if the airbag is deployed.

When a forward facing child seat is installed on the front passenger seat, adjust the vehicle's seat to the fully back and highest position with seat backrest straightened and leave the passenger's front airbag activated.

"ISOFIX" mountings

Your vehicle has been approved in accordance with the latest ISOFIX regulations. The seats, represented below, are fitted with regulation ISOFIX mountings.

Diagram showing two labeled arrows (A) pointing to a vehicle interior, likely indicating movement or direction of interest.

There are three rings for each seat.

- Two rings A, located between the vehicle seat back and cushion, indicated by a label.

- A ring B, behind the seat, referred to as the TOP TETHER for fixing the upper strap. The TOP TETHER is used to secure the upper strap of child seats that have one.

This arrangement reduces forward tipping of the child seat in the event of a front impact.

Recommendations

! Child seats

The incorrect installation of a child seat in a vehicle compromises the child's protection in the event of an accident.

Check that there is no seat belt or seat belt buckle under the child seat as this could destabilise it.

Remember to fasten the seat belts or the child seat harnesses keeping the slack in relation to the child's body to a minimum, even for short journeys.

For the installation of a child seat using a seat belt, ensure that this is well tensioned on the child seat and that it is holding the child seat firmly against the seat of your vehicle. If your front passenger seat is adjustable, move it forward if necessary. At the rear seats, always leave sufficient space between the front seat and:

- a rearward facing child seat,

- the feet of a child seated in a forward facing child seat.

For this, move the front seat forward and if necessary straighten its backrest.

For optimum installation of the forward facing child seat, ensure that the back of the child seat is as close as possible to the backrest of the vehicle's seat, or in contact if possible.

The head restraint must be removed before installing a child seat with a backrest on the passenger seat.

Ensure that the head restraint is stowed or attached securely so that it is not thrown around the vehicle in the event of sharp braking.

Refit the head restraint as soon as the child seat is removed.

Children at the front

The legislation on carrying a child on the front passenger seat is specific to each country. Refer to the legislation in force in the country in which you are driving.

Deactivate the passenger's front airbag when a rearward facing child seat is installed on the front passenger seat. Otherwise, the child would risk being seriously injured or killed if the airbag were deployed.

Installing a booster cushion

The chest part of the seat belt must be positioned on the child's shoulder without touching the neck.

Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt passes correctly over the child's thighs.

PEUGEOT recommends the use of a booster seat which has a back, fitted with a seat belt guide at shoulder level.

As a safety precaution, do not leave:

- one or more children alone and unsupervised in a vehicle,

- a child or an animal in a vehicle which is exposed to the sun, with the windows closed,

- the keys within reach of children inside the vehicle.

To prevent accidental opening of the doors, use the child lock.

Take care not to open the rear windows by more than one third.

To protect young children from the rays of the sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.

Safety

Any other status of the indicator lamp indicates a fault with the electric child lock.

Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Switching off - 2

This system is independent and in no circumstances does it take the place of the central locking control.

Check the state of the child lock each time you switch on the ignition.

Always remove the key from the ignition when leaving the vehicle, even for a short time.

In the event of a serious impact, the electric child lock is switched off automatically to permit the exit of the rear passengers.

Driving recommendations

Observe the driving regulations and remain vigilant whatever the traffic conditions. Pay close attention to the traffic and keep your hands on the wheel so that you are ready to react at any time to any eventuality. On a long journey, a break every two hours is strongly recommended. In difficult weather, drive smoothly, anticipate the need to brake and increase the distance from other vehicles.

Driving on flooded roads

We strongly advise against driving on flooded roads, as this could cause serious damage to the engine or gearbox, as well as to the electrical systems of your vehicle.

If you are obliged to drive through water:

10 km/h - 7 mph MAX 150 mm

  • check that the depth of water does not exceed 15 cm, taking account of waves that might be generated by other users,
  • deactivate the Stop & Start system,
  • drive as slowly as possible without stalling. In all cases, do not exceed 6 mph (10 km/h),
  • do not stop and do not switch off the engine.

On leaving the flooded road, as soon as circumstances allow, make several light brake applications to dry the brake discs and pads. If in doubt on the state of your vehicle, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Important!

Never drive with the parking brake applied - Risk of overheating and damage to the braking system! Do not park or run the engine when stationary in areas where inflammable substances and materials (dry grass, dead leaves...) might come into contact with the hot exhaust system - Risk of fire!

Never leave a vehicle unsupervised with the engine running. If you have to leave your vehicle with the engine running, apply the parking brake and put the gearbox into neutral or position N or P, depending on the type of gearbox.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Important! - 1

When towing

Distribution of loads

Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to the axle and the nose weight approaches the maximum permitted without exceeding it.

Air density decreases with altitude, thus reducing engine performance. Above 1 000 metres, the maximum towed load must be reduced by 10 % for every 1 000 metres of altitude.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Distribution of loads - 1

For more information on weights (and the towed loads which apply to your vehicle) refer to the corresponding section.

Side wind

Take into account the increased sensitivity to side wind.

Cooling

Towing a trailer on a slope increases the temperature of the coolant. As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.

To lower the engine speed, reduce your speed.

The maximum towed load on a long incline depends on the gradient and the ambient temperature.

In all cases, keep a check on the coolant temperature.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Cooling - 1

If the warning lamp and the STOP warning lamp come on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as possible.

Braking

Towing a trailer increases the braking distance. To avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of engine braking is recommended.

Tyres

Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the recommended pressures.

Lighting

Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer and the hadlamp beam height of your vehicle.

For more information on adjusting the headlamp beam height, refer to the corresponding section.

Stop & Start

The Stop & Start system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...). The engine restarts automatically - START mode - as soon as you want to move off. The restart takes place instantly, quickly and silently. Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.

Operation

Going into engine STOP mode

ECO

The "ECO" indicator lamp comes on in the instrument panel and the engine goes into standby:

  • with a manual gearbox, at speeds below 12 mph (20 km/h), or vehicle stationary with the e-THP 165 version, when you put the gear lever into neutral and release the clutch pedal,
  • with an automatic gearbox, vehicle stationary, when you press the brake pedal or you put the gear selector in position N. If your vehicle is fitted with the system, a time counter calculates the sum of the periods in STOP mode during a journey. It rests itself to zero every time the ignition is switched on with the key.

For your comfort, during parking maoeuvres, STOP mode is not available for a few seconds after coming out of reverse gear. STOP mode does not affect the functionality of the vehicle, such as for example, braking, power steering...
Never refuel with the engine in STOP mode; you must switch off the ignition with the key.

Special cases: STOP mode not available

STOP mode is not invoked when:

  • the driver's door is open,
  • the driver's seat belt is not fastened,
  • the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph (10 km/h) since the last engine start using the key,
  • the vehicle is stopped on a steep slope (up or down),
  • the electric parking brake is applied or being applied,
  • the engine is needed to maintain a comfortable temperature in the passenger compartment,

Driving

Tyre under-inflation detection

System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.

The system continuously monitors the pressures of the four tyres, as soon as the vehicle is moving.

Line drawing of a car wheel with a black arrow pointing to the wheel rim (no text or symbols)

A pressure sensor is located in the valve of each tyre (except the spare wheel).

The system triggers an alert if a drop in pressure is detected in one or more tyres.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Tyre under-inflation detection - 2

The tyre under-inflation detection system is an aid to driving which does not replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.

This system does not avoid the need to check the tyre pressures regularly (including the spare wheel) and before a long journey. Driving with under-inflated tyres adversely affects road holding, extends braking distances and causes premature tyre wear, particularly under arduous conditions (vehicle loaded, high speed, long journey).

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Tyre under-inflation detection - 3

Driving with under-inflated tyres increases fuel consumption.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Tyre under-inflation detection - 4

The tyre pressures for your vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure label. The tyre pressures must be checked when the tyres cold (vehicle stopped for 1 hour or after driving for less than 6 miles (10 km) at moderate speed). Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the values indicated on the label. For more information on identification markings, including the tyre pressure label, refer to the corresponding section.

Under-inflation alert

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Under-inflation alert - 1

The alert is given by the fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal, and depending on equipment, the display of a message.

In the event of a problem on one of the tyres, the symbol or the message appears, according to equipment, to identify it.

Reduce speed, avoid sudden steering movements or harsh brake applications.
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.

If you have a compressor (the one in the temporary puncture repair kit for example), check the four tyre pressures when cold.
If it is not possible to check the tyre pressures at the time, drive carefully at reduced speed. or
In the event of a puncture, use the temporary puncture repair kit or the spare wheel (according to equipment).

The loss of pressure detected does not always lead to visible deformation of the tyre.

Do not rely on just a visual check.

The alert is maintained until the tyre or tyres concerned is reinflated, repaired or replaced.

The spare wheel (space-saver type or a steel rim) does not have a sensor.

Speed limiter

System which prevents the vehicle from exceeding the speed programmed by the driver.

When the programmed speed limit is reached, pressing the accelerator pedal no longer has any effect unless it is pressed firmly, which allows you to temporarily exceed the programmed speed.

To return to the programmed speed, simply slow down to a speed below the programmed speed by releasing the accelerator.

The speed limiter is switched on manually: it requires a programmed speed of at least 20 mph (30 km/h).

The speed limiter is switched off by manual operation of the control.

The programmed speed remains in the memory when the ignition is switched off.

Blind spot monitoring system

Top-down diagram of three cars with sound waves, connected by a road (no text or symbols)

This driving assistance system warns the driver of the presence of another vehicle in the blind spot angle of their vehicle (areas masked from the driver's field of vision), as soon as this presents a potential danger.

Diagram showing car interior with sensor icons and a close-up of a car's side panel (no text or symbols)

A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on the side in question:

  • immediately, when being overtaken.
  • after a delay of about one second, when overtaking a vehicle slowly.

This system is designed to improve safety when driving and is in no circumstances a substitute for the use of the interior rear view mirror and door mirrors. It is the driver's responsibility to constantly check the traffic, to assess the distances and relative speeds of other vehicles and to predict their movements before deciding whether to change lane.

The blind spot sensor system can never replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.

Sensors fitted in the front and rear bumpers monitor the blind spots.

The alert is given by a warning lamp which comes on in the door mirror on the side in question as soon as a vehicle - car, lorry, cycle - is detected.

For this, the following conditions must be met:

  • all the vehicles must be moving in the same direction.
  • the speed of your vehicle is between 7 and 75 mph (12 and 140 km/h),
  • when you overtake a vehicle with a speed difference of less than 6 mph (10 km/h),
  • when a vehicle overtakes you with a speed difference of less than 15 mph (25 km/h),
  • the traffic must be flowing normally,
  • in the case of an overtaking manoeuvre, if this is prolonged and the vehicle being overtaken remains in the blind spot,
  • you are driving on a straight or slightly curved road,
  • your vehicle is not pulling a trailer, a caravan...

The system may suffer temporary interference in certain weather conditions (rain, hail...). In particular, driving on a wet surface or moving from a dry area to a wet area can cause false alerts (for example, the presence of a fog of water droplets in the blind spot angle is interpreted as a vehicle). In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the sensors are not covered by mud, ice or snow. Take care not to cover the warning zone in the door mirrors or the detection zones on the front and rear bumpers with adhesive labels or other objects; they may hamper the correct operation of the system.

With Stop & Start, never refuel with the system in STOP mode; you must switch off the ignition with the key, or the START/STOP button if your vehicle has Keyless Entry and Starting.

Refuelling

Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres to be registered by the fuel gauge.

Opening the filler cap may result in an inrush of air. This vacuum is entirely normal and results from the sealing of the fuel system.

Take care to select the pump that delivers the correct fuel type for your vehicle's engine (reminder on a label on the inside of the filler flap).
Open the filler cap by turning it a 1/4 turn to the left.
Remove the filler cap and hang it on its carrier (on the filler flap).

Introduce the nozzle and push it in fully (pushing on the the metal non-return valve A).
Fill the tank. Do not continue past the third cut-off of the nozzle, as this may cause malfunctions.
Refit the filler cap turning it a 1/4 turn to the right.
→ Push the filler flap to close it.

Your vehicle is fitted with a catalytic converter, a device which helps to reduce the level of harmful emissions in the exhaust gases.

For petrol engines, you must use unleaded fuel only.

The filler neck is narrower, admitting petrol nozzles only.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Refuelling - 1

If you have put in the wrong fuel for your vehicle, you must have have the tank drained and refilled with the correct fuel before starting the engine.

Low fuel level

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Low fuel level - 1

When the low fuel level in the tank is reached, this warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible warning and a message in the instrument panel screen.

When it first comes on, around 7 litres of fuel remain in the tank.

You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid running out.

Fuel supply cut-off

Your vehicle is equipped with a safety device which cuts off the fuel supply in the event of a collision.

Diesel misfuel prevention

Mechanical device which prevents filling the tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It avoids the risk of engine damage that can result from filling with the wrong fuel.

Located in the filler neck, the misfuel prevention device appears when the filler cap is removed.

Technical line drawing of a mechanical component with no visible text or symbols

When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into the fuel filler neck of your Diesel vehicle, it comes into contact with the flap. The system remains closed and prevents filling.

Do not persist, but introduce a Diesel filler nozzle.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Diesel misfuel prevention - 2

It is still possible to use a fuel can to fill the tank but this must be done slowly. In order to ensure a good flow of fuel, do not place the nozzle of the fuel can in direct contact with the flap of the misfuel prevention device.

Travelling abroad

As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be different in other countries, the presence of the misfuel prevention device may make refuelling impossible.

Not all Diesel vehicles are fitted with misfuel protection, so before travelling abroad, we recommend that you check with the PEUGEOT dealer network, whether your vehicle is suitable for the fuel pumps in the country in which you want to travel.

Snow chains

In wintry conditions, snow chains improve traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle when braking.

The snow chains must be fitted only to the front wheels. They must never be fitted to "space-saver" type spare wheels.

Take account of the legislation in force in your country on the use of snow chains and the maximum running speed authorised.

Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:

Original tyre size Type of chain
215/60R16215/55R17225/55 R17Maximum link size:9 mm
135/80R18235/45R18235/40R19245/45 R18Cannot be fitted with chains

It is strongly recommended that before you leave, you practise fitting the snow chains on a level and dry surface.

For more information on snow chains, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Advice on installation

If you have to fit the chains during a journey, stop the vehicle on a flat surface on the side of the road.
Apply the parking brake and position any wheel chocks to prevent movement of your vehicle.
Fit the chains following the instructions provided by the manufacturer.
Move off gently and drive for a few moments, without exceeding 30 mph (50 km/h).
Stop your vehicle and check that the snow chains are correctly tightened.

Avoid driving with snow chains on roads that have been cleared of snow, to avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres and the road surface. If your vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels, check that no part of the chain or its fixings is in contact with the wheel rim.

Very cold climate screen

AdBlue® additive and SCR system for BlueHDi Diesel engines

To assure respect for the environment and conformity with the new Euro 6 emissions standard, without adversely affecting the performance or fuel consumption of Diesel engines, PEUGEOT has taken the decision to equip its vehicles with an effective system that associates SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) with a particle filter (FAP) for the treatment of exhaust gases.

Presentation of the SCR system

Using an additive called AdBlue ® containing urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85% of nitrous oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and water, which are harmless to health and the environment.

AdBlue® SCR FAP

The AdBlue 20 additive is held in a special tank located under the boot at the rear of the vehicle. It has a capacity of 17 litres: this provides a driving range of about 12 500 miles (20 000 km), after which an alert is triggered warning you when the reserve remaining is enough for just 1 500 miles (2 400 km).

During each scheduled service of your vehicle by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop, the AdBlue ® additive tank is refilled in order to allow normal operation of the SCR system.

If the estimated mileage between two services is greater than 12 500 miles (20 000 km), we recommend that you go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop to have the necessary top-up carried out.

Once the AdBlue ® tank is empty, a system required by regulations prevents starting of the engine. If the SCR is faulty, the level of emissions from your vehicle will no longer meet the Euro 6 standard: your vehicle becomes polluting. In the event of a confirmed fault with the SCR system, you must go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop as soon as possible: after a running distance of 650 miles (1 100 km), a system will be triggered automatically to prevent engine starting.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Presentation of the SCR system - 2

Topping-up the AdBlue ® additive

Filling the AdBlue ® tank is an operation included in every routine service on your vehicle by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Nevertheless, given the capacity of the tank, it may be necessary to top-up the additive between services, more particularly if an alert (warning lamps and a message) signals the requirement.

You can go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

If you envisage topping-up yourself, please read the following warnings carefully.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Topping-up the AdBlue ® additive - 1

Freezing of the AdBlue ® additive

The AdBlue ® additive freezes at temperatures below around -11°C. The SCR system includes a heater for the AdBlue ® tank, allowing you to continue driving in very cold conditions.

Precautions in use

The AdBlue ® additive is an urea-based solution. This liquid is non-flammable, colourless and odourless (kept in a cool area). In the event of contact with the skin, wash the affected area with soap and water. In the event of contact with the eyes, wash (irrigate) the eyes with large amounts of water or with an eye wash solution for at least 15 minutes. If a burning sensation or irritation persists, get medical attention. If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth with clean water and then drink plenty of water. In certain conditions (high ambient temperature, for example), the risk of release of ammonia cannot be excluded: do not inhale the product. Ammonia vapour has an irritant effect on mucous membranes (eyes, nose and throat).

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Precautions in use - 1

Keep AdBlue ® out of the reach of children, in its original bottle. Never transfer AdBlue ® to another container: it would lose its purity.

Use only AdBlue ® additive that meets the ISO 22241 standard.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Precautions in use - 2

Never dilute the additive with water. Never pour the additive into the Diesel fuel tank.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Precautions in use - 3

AdBlue®

The supply in a non-drip bottle simplifies topping-up. You can obtain 1.89 litre (half a US gallon) bottles from a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - AdBlue® - 1

Never top-up from an AdBlue ® dispenser reserved for heavy goods vehicles.

Recommendations on storage

AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C and deteriorates above 25°C. It is recommended that bottles be stored in a cool area and protected from direct sunlight. Under these conditions, the additive can be kept for at least a year. If the additive has frozen, it can be used once it has completely thawed out.

Never store bottles of AdBlue ® in your vehicle.

Obtain a bottle of AdBlue ® . After first checking the use-by date, read carefully the instructions on use on the label before pouring the contents of the bottle into your vehicle's AdBlue ® tank.

Important: if your vehicle's AdBlue® tank is completely empty - which is confirmed by the alert messages and the impossibility of starting the engine, you must add at least 3.8 litres (so two 1.89 litre bottles).

After emptying the bottle, wipe away any spillage around the tank filler using a damp cloth.

If any additive is split or splashed, wash immediately with cold water or wipe with a damp cloth. If the additive has crystallised, clean it off using a sponge and hot water.

Refit the blue cap to the tank and turn it a 6th of a turn clockwise, to its stop.
Refit the black cap and turn it a quarter of a turn clockwise without pressing. Ensure that the indicator on the cap lines up with the indicator on the support.
Depending on equipment, return the spare wheel and/or the storage box to the bottom of the boot.
Refit the boot carpet and close the tailgate.

Important: when topping-up after running out of additive, signalled by the message "Top up emissions additive: Starting prevented", you must wait for about 5 minutes before switching the ignition on again, without opening the driver's door, unlocking the vehicle, introducing the remote control key into the ignition switch, or placing the electronic key of the "Keyless Entry and Starting" system inside the vehicle. Switch on the ignition, then wait for 10 seconds before starting the engine.

Never dispose of AdBlue ® additive bottles in the household waste. Place them in a special container provided this purpose or take them to your dealer.

  • Raise the plastic cover on the (+) terminal, if your vehicle has one.
    Connect the red cable to the positive terminal (+) of the flat battery A (at the metal elbow) then to the positive terminal (+) of the slave battery B or the booster.
    Connect one end of the green or black cable to the negative terminal (-) of the slave battery B or the booster (or earth point on the other vehicle).

Connect the other end of the green or black cable to the earth point C on the broken down vehicle.
Start the engine of the vehicle with the good battery and leave it running for a few minutes.
Operate the starter on the broken down vehicle and let the engine run.

If the engine does not start straight away, switch off the ignition and wait a few moments before trying again.

Wait until the engine returns to idle then disconnect the jump lead cables in the reverse order.
Refit the plastic cover to the (+) terminal, if your vehicle has one.
Allow the engine to run for at least 30 minutes, by driving or with the vehicle stationary, so that the battery reaches an adequate state of charge.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Starting using another battery - 3

Some functions, including Stop & Start, are not available if the battery is not sufficiently charged.

Charging the battery using a battery charger

For optimum service life of the battery, it is essential to maintain an adequate state of charge.

In some circumstances it may be necessary to charge the battery:

  • if you use your vehicle essentially for short journeys,
  • if the vehicle is to be taken off the road for several weeks.

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Charging the battery using a battery charger - 1

If you envisage charging your vehicle's battery yourself, use only a charger compatible with lead-acid batteries of a nominal voltage of 12 V.

In countries where the service is not available, or when the locating service has been expressly declined, the call is sent directly to the emergency services (112) without the vehicle location.

If an impact is detected by the airbag control unit, and independently of the deployment of any airbags, an emergency call is made automatically.

If you benefit from the PEUGEOT Connect Packs offer with the SOS and assistance pack included, there are additional services available to you in your MyPEUGEOT personal space, via the PEUGEOT Internet website in your country, accessible on www.peugeot.co.uk.

* Subject to the general conditions for the service available from dealers and to technological and technical limitations.

** Depending on the geographical cover of "PEUGEOT Connect SOS", "PEUGEOT Connect Assistance" and the official national language selected by the owner of the vehicle. The list of countries covered and PEUGEOT CONNECT services is available from dealers or at www.peugeot.co.uk.

JBL EQUIPMENT

Illustration of a car with visible engine components and exhaust system (no text or symbols)

The Hi-Fi system is a 5.1 system developed by PEUGEOT in conjunction with JBL.

4 two-way speaker kits, separated by an active filter, are fitted at front and rear.

These are based on a fabric dome tweeter delivering stable and balanced treble reproduction and a 50W RMS neodymium magnet inverted motor medium-woofer possessing a very high output of bass frequencies.

The central acoustic path in the dashboard improves reproduction of the musical scene, putting the listener in a situation that realistically reproduces the original musical recording.

The bass unit located in the boot carries a 150W triple-coil true subwoofer in an optimised space, giving depth and impact to the bass ranges.

This set of speakers is controlled by a 10-way 500W RMS 2 ohm amplifier, using advanced surround sound and sound distribution handling, so as to deliver optimum performance both for the driver and for the passengers in the vehicle.

Frequently asked questions

The following table groups together the answers to the most frequently asked questions concerning your audio system.

Navigation

QUESTION ANSWER SOLUTION
The route calculation is not successful.The route settings may conflict with the current location (exclusion of toll roads on a toll motorway).Check the route settings in the "Navigation" menu.
The POIs do not appear.The POIs have not been selected.Select the POIs in the list of POIs.
The Risk areas audible warning does not work.The audible warning is not active. Activate audible warnings in the "Navigation" menu.
The system does not suggest a detour around an incident on the route.The guidance criteria do not take account of TMC messages.Select the "Information" function in the list of route settings.
I receive a Risk areas alert which is not on my route.Other than guidance, the system announces all Risk areas positioned in a cone located in front of the vehicle. It may provide an alert for Risk areas located on nearby or parallel roads.Zoom in on the map to view the exact position of the Risk areas. Select "On the route" to no longer receive alerts other than navigation instructions or to reduce the time for the announcement.
Certain traffic jams along the route are not indicated in real time.On starting, it is several minutes before the system begins to receive the traffic information.Wait until the traffic information is being received correctly (display of the traffic information icons on the map).
The filters are too restrictive. Modify the settings.
In certain countries, only major routes (motorways...) are listed for the traffic information.This phenomenon is normal. The system is dependent on the traffic information available.
The altitude is not displayed.On starting, the initialisation of the GPS may take up to 3 minutes to receive more than 4 satellites correctly.Wait until the system has started up completely so that there is GPS coverage by at least 4 satellites.
Depending on the geographical environment (tunnel...) or the weather, the conditions of reception of the GPS signal may vary.This phenomenon is normal. The system is dependent on the GPS signal reception conditions.

Radio

QUESTION ANSWER SOLUTION
The quality of reception of the radio station listened to gradually deteriorates or the stored stations do not function (no sound, 87.5 Mhz is displayed...).The vehicle is too far from the transmitter used by the station listened to or there is no transmitter in the geographical area through which the vehicle is travelling.Activate the "RDS" function by means of the short-cut menu to enable the system to check whether there is a more powerful transmitter in the geographical area.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...) block reception, including in RDS mode.This phenomenon is normal and does not indicate a fault with the audio system.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example when going through a car wash or into an underground car park).Have the aerial checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
I cannot find some radio stations in the list of stations received.The station is not received or its name has changed in the list.Press and hold the "List" button at the steering mounted controls to update the list of stations received or press on the system update function: "Update list".
Some radio stations send other information in place of their name (the title of the song for example).The system interprets this information as the name of the station.
The name of the radio station changes.

Media

QUESTION ANSWER SOLUTION
Playback of my USB memory stick starts only after a very long wait (around 2 to 3 minutes).Some files supplied with the memory stick may greatly slow down access to reading the memory stick (multiplication by 10 of the catalogue time).Delete the files supplied with the memory stick and limit the number of sub-folders in the file structure on the memory stick.
When I connect my iPhone as a telephone and to the USB port at the same time, I am unable to play the music files.When the iPhone connects automatically as a telephone, it forces the streaming function. The streaming function takes the place of the USB function which is then not useable, there is a period without sound of the track being played with Apple® players.Disconnect and reconnect to the USB port (the USB function takes priority over streaming).
The CD is ejected automatically or is not played by the player.The CD is inserted upside down, is unplayable, does not contain any audio data or contains an audio format which the player cannot play.Check that the CD is inserted in the player the right way up.Check the condition of the CD: the CD cannot be played if it is too badly damaged.Check the content in the case of a recorded CD: refer to the advice in the "AUDIO" section.The audio system's CD player does not play DVDs.Some recorded CDs will not be played by the audio system because they are not of adequate quality.
The CD has been recorded in a format that is not compatible with the player (udf...).
The CD is protected by an anti-pirating protection system which is not recognised by the audio system.
There is a long waiting period following the insertion of a CD or connection of a USB memory stick.When a new medium is inserted, the system reads a certain amount of data (directory, title, artist, etc.). This may take from a few seconds to a few minutes.This phenomenon is normal.
The CD player sound is poor.The CD used is scratched or of poor quality. Insert good quality CDs and store them in suitable conditions.
The audio equipment settings (bass, treble, ambiences) are unsuitable.Set the treble or bass level to 0, without selecting an ambience.
Some characters in the media information are not displayed correctly while playing.The audio system does not display some types of characters.Use standard characters to name tracks and folders.
Playing of streaming files does not start.The peripheral device connected does not support automatic play. Start the playback from the device.
The names of tracks and the track length are not displayed on the screen when streaming audio.The Bluetooth profile does not allow the transfer of this information.

Settings

QUESTION ANSWER SOLUTION
In changing the setting of treble and bass the equalizer setting is deselected.The selection of an equalizer setting imposes the balance settings.Modifying one without the other is not possible.Modify the balance or equalizer settings to obtain the desired musical ambience.

Information and advice

The audio system will only play files with extension ".mp3" or ".wma" and a compression rate that is constant or variable between 32 Kbps and 320 Kbps.

It is advisable to restrict file names to 20 characters without using special characters (e.g. " ? ; ù) to avoid any playing or displaying problems.

The playlists accepted are types .m3u and .pls. The number of files is limited to 5 000 in 500 directories on a maximum of 8 levels.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Information and advice - 1

On a single disc, the CD player can read up to 255 MP3 files spread over 8 directory levels. However, it is recommended that this be kept to 2 levels so as to limit the time taken to access and play the CD.

During play, the folder structure is not observed.

In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or CDRW, when recording it is preferable to select standards ISO 9660 level 1.2 or Joliet.

If the disc is recorded in another format, it may not be played correctly.

It is recommended that the same recording standard is always used for an individual disc, with as low a speed as possible (4x maximum) for optimum sound quality.

In the particular case of a multi-session CD, the Joliet standard is recommended.

Use only USB memory sticks formatted FAT32 (File Allocation Table).

Frequently asked questions

The following tables contain answers to the most frequently asked questions.

QUESTION ANSWER SOLUTION
There is a difference in sound quality between the different audio sources (radio, CD...).For optimum sound quality, the audio settings (Volume, Bass, Treble, Ambience, Loudness) can be adapted to the different sound sources, which may result in audible differences when changing source (radio, CD...).Check that the audio settings (Volume, Bass, Treble, Ambience, Loudness) are adapted to the sources listened to. It is advisable to set the AUDIO functions (Bass, Treble, Front-Rear Fader, Left-Right Balance) to the middle position, select the musical ambience "None" and set the loudness correction to the "Active" position in CD mode or to the "Inactive" position in radio mode.
When changing the settings for treble and bass, the ambience setting is deselected.When changing the ambience setting, treble and bass are reset to zero.Choosing an ambience imposes settings for treble and bass.Modifying one without the other is not possible.Modify the treble and bass settings or the ambience setting to obtain the desired sound quality.
When changing the balance setting, distribution is deselected.Choosing a distribution setting imposes a balance setting. Modifying one without the other is not possible.Modify the balance setting or the distribution setting to obtain the desired sound quality.
The quality of reception of the radio station listened to gradually deteriorates or the stored stations do not function (no sound, 87.5 MHz is displayed...).The vehicle is too far from the transmitter used by the station listened to or there is no transmitter in the geographical area through which the vehicle is travelling.Activate the RDS function to enable the system to check whether there is a more powerful transmitter in the geographical area.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...) block reception, including in RDS mode.This phenomenon is normal and does not indicate a failure of the audio equipment.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example when going through a car wash or into an underground car park).Have the aerial checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Sound cut-outs of 1 to 2 seconds in radio mode.During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches for any frequency permitting better reception of the station.Deactivate the RDS function if the phenomenon is too frequent and always on the same route.
The traffic announcement (TA) is displayed. I do not receive any traffic information.The radio station does not broadcast traffic information. Tune to a radio station which broadcasts traffic information.
The stored stations are not found (no sound, 87.5 MHz is displayed...).An incorrect waveband is selected. Press the BAND button to return to the waveband on which the stations are stored.
The CD is ejected automatically or is not played by the player.The CD is inserted upside down, is unplayable, does not contain any audio data or contains an audio format which the player cannot play. The CD is protected by an anti-pirating protection system which is not recognised by the audio equipment.- Check that the CD is inserted in the player the right way up.- Check the condition of the CD: the CD cannot be played if it is too damaged.- Check the content in the case of a recorded CD: consult the advice in the "Audio" section.- The audio equipment's CD player does not play DVDs.- Due to their quality level, certain writeable CDs will not be played by the audio system.
The CD player sound is poor.The CD used is scratched or of poor quality. Insert good quality CDs and store them in suitable conditions.
The audio settings (bass, treble, ambience) are unsuitable. Set the treble or bass level to 0, without selecting an ambience.
The message "USB peripheral error" or "Peripheral not recognised" is displayed in the screen.The USB memory stick is not recognised.The memory stick may be corrupt.Reformat the memory stick (FAT 32).
The Apple® player is not recognised when connecting to the USB port.The Apple® player is of a generation that is not compatible with the USB.Connect the Apple® player to the AUX Jack socket using a suitable cable (not supplied).
The hard disk or device is not recognised when connecting to the USB port.Some hard disks and devices need a power supply greater than is provided by the audio system.Connect the device to the 230 V socket, the 12 V socket or an external power supply.Caution:ensure that the device does not transmit a voltage greater than 5 V (risk of destruction of the system).
In "Random all" play, not all of the tracks are played.In "Random all" play, the system can only take into account up to 999 tracks.
With the engine off, the audio system switches off after a few minutes of use.When the engine is switched off, the audio system operating time depends on the battery charge.The switch-off is normal:the audio system switches to economy mode and switches off to prevent discharging the vehicle's battery.Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery charge.
The message "the audio system is overheated" appears on the display.In order to protect the installation if the surrounding temperature is too high, the audio system switches to an automatic thermal protection mode leading to a reduction of the volume or stopping of the playing of the CD.Switch the audio system off for a few minutes to allow the system to cool.

Hybrid4 system

Presentation of the HYbrid4 system

The HYbrid4 technology associates two sources of power: an HDi Diesel engine, which drives the front wheels and an electric motor, which drives the rear wheels.

These two motors can operate alternately or simultaneously, according to the HYbrid4 operating mode selected and the driving conditions.

The electric motor alone provides power for the vehicle in ZEV (Zero Emissions Vehicle mode, and in AUTO mode when running at slow speed and under low load. The electric motor also assists the HDi Diesel engine when moving off, accelerating and changing gear.

The electric motor is powered by a high voltage battery that is recharged during phases of deceleration as well as, up to a certain threshold, by the HDi Diesel engine.

Main parts of the HYbrid4 system

The HDI Diesel engine (1 ), located at the front, drives the front wheels and provides most of the power needed to drive the vehicle.

Your HYbrid4 vehicle is fitted with effective emissions control systems, including the (FAP). Particle Filter

During particle filter regeneration phases, the HDi engine is called on to produce the temperatures needed for combustion of the particles.

Electric running is temporarily unavailable and is accompanied by the display of a message "Electric mode not available: FAP regeneration in progress".

The electric motor (2), located at the rear of the vehicle, drives the rear wheels on its own, or supplements the HDi Diesel engine, according to the HYbrid4 operating mode selected.

This electric motor also manages the recovery of energy, the charging of the batteries during phases of deceleration of the vehicle. It is active up to 70 mph (120 km/h).

The 200 V high voltage battery (3), using Ni-MH technology, stores and delivers the energy needed for operation of the electric motor

Its state of charge is managed automatically by the electric motor during phases of deceleration or by the HDI Diesel engine below a certain threshold.

This high voltage battery is located in a special compartment under the boot floor. Access to it is strictly restricted to technicians at a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

The state of charge of the high voltage battery is represented graphically by bars. See the "Display of energy flows" section.

The 12 V battery, located under the bonnet, powers the vehicle's conventional electrical system. It is used for starting the HDi Diesel engine and the operation of the vehicle's equipment, such as the lighting, wipers, audio system...

This 12 V battery is recharged automatically by the high voltage network.

Hybrid4 system

The electronic power supervisor (4) manages the operation of the two power units, HDi Diesel and electric, giving priority to low fuel consumption.

The alternator-starter motor (5) assures the Stop & Start function, which allows the HDI Diesel engine to be put into standby when the vehicle is at a standstill (traffic lights, a stop, or in a traffic jam...) or during phases of running in 100% electric mode.

The stopping and restarting of the HDi Diesel engine is done automatically and instantly without any action on the part of the driver.

This alternator-starter motor also provides additional charging of the high-voltage battery by the HDi Diesel engine, if this not sufficiently charged, or in 4WD mode for example

Compared to a manual gearbox, the ETG6 electronic gearbox (6) provides, in automatic mode, significant savings in fuel consumption, through the electronic management of gear changes.

The mode selector (8) allows selection of the four operating modes offered by the HYbrid4 system:

  • AUTO mode, which optimises fuel consumption by automatically managing the alternate or simultaneous use of the two motors,
  • ZEV (Zero Emissions Vehicle) mode, which provides 100% electric drive, when the driving conditions and the state of charge of the battery permit,
  • SPORT mode, which provides more dynamic driving with additional performance,
  • 4WD (4 Wheel Drive) mode, which improves traction at low speed when grip is poor (snow,mud,sand...).

AUTO mode

This mode is designed to optimise the vehicle's fuel consumption by managing the alternate or simultaneous operation of the two motors according to the conditions and driving style. When conditions allow, an adequate battery state of charge and moderate acceleration, the alternator-starter motor stops the HDI Diesel engine to provide 100% electric running.

In AUTO mode, the electric motor

- can power the vehicle on its own in "zero emissions" electric running, depending on the state of charge of the battery, if the conditions specific to the vehicle are met and if acceleration is moderate, supplements the HDi Diesel engine when moving off and changing gear, during acceleration or when traction from the front wheels is inadequate, temporarily providing 4-wheel drive.

The electric motor can operate only at speeds below 52 mph (85 km/h). It is no longer active above 75 mph (120 km/h).

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - In AUTO mode, the electric motor - 1

ZEV mode (all electric)

Zero emissions vehicle operation is assured 100 % by electric drive.

This mode allows silent and clean running at moderatespeeds.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - ZEV mode (all electric) - 1

It can be activated when the conditions allow, particularly if the state of charge of high voltage battery is sufficient (from 4 bars).

Refer to the special conditions for operation of ZEVmode.

Driving recommendations

Observe the driving regulations and remai vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.

Pay close attention to the traffic and keep your hands on the wheel so that you are ready to react at any time to any eventuality.

On a long journey, a break every two hours is strongly recommended.

In difficult weather, drive smoothly, anticipate the need to brake and increase the distance from other vehicles.

Driving on flooded roads

We strongly advise against driving on flooded roads, as this could cause serious damage to the internal combustion engine or electric motor, the electronic gearbox, or the electrical systems of your vehicle.

If you are obliged to drive through water:

10 km/h - 7 mph MAX 150 mm

  • check that the depth of water does not exceed 15 cm, taking account of waves that might be generated by other users,
  • place the mode selector in the 4WD position,
  • drive as slowly as possible without stalling. In all cases, do not exceed 6 mph (10 km/h).
  • do not stop and do not switch off the engine.

On leaving the flooded road, as soon as circumstances allow, make several light brake applications to dry the brake discs and pads.

If in doubt on the state of your vehicle, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Important

Never drive with the parking brake applied - Risk of overheating and damage to the braking system! Do not park or run the engine when stationary in areas where inflammable substances and materials (dry grass, dead leaves...) might come into contact with the hot exhaust system or certain components of the HYbrid4 system which can reach very high temperatures - Risk of tire!

Never leave a vehicle unsupervise with the engine running. If you have to leave your vehicle with the engine running, apply the parking brake and put the electronic gearbox into position N.

Eco-driving

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Eco-driving - 1

Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CC2 emissions.

Adapted to your HYbrid4 vehicle

Use gear selector positionA, as this optimises gear changes to suit the circumstances, and the AUTO mode of the HYbrid4 mode selector.

When moving off, accelerate normally up to the desired speed ( POWER zone between 20 and 40 %).

At steady speeds, drive gently with small movements of the accelerator pedal (ECCor CHARGE zone), to allow running in electric mode when driving at low speed.

Anticipate the need to slow down and use engine braking (CHARGE zone), so as to make use of the recovery of "free" energy, while maintaining light pressure on the accelerator pedal.

For information on other eco-driving practices, refer to the corresponding section of the handbook for the vehicle.

Hybrid4 system

Special conditions for the operation of ZEV mode

ZEV mode can be selected when all of the conditions for its operation are met, in particular an adequate state of charge of the battery (50% at least).

In the situations described below, the HDi Diesel must be running; accordingly, ZEV mode cannot be selected or is deactivated automatically. The mode selector remains at or returns to the AUTO position to allow starting of the HDi Diesel engine.

Cases of non availability of ZEV mode or automatic return to AUTO mode

Action by the driver

- Manual gear change when in automatic mode using the steering mounted controls for the electronic gearbox.

- Selection of manual mode by moving the gear selector for the electronic gearbox to position M.

-Sustainedandsharpacceleration.

- Use of demisting / defrosting.

-Intensiveuseofairconditioning.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Action by the driver - 1

Maintaining the performance of the system:

  • If the state of charge of the high voltage battery is lower than 4 bars (equal to 50% charged). In AUTO mode, electric operation is possible with a lower state of charge.
  • When the speed of the vehicle exceeds 18 mph (30 km/h), if the internal combustion engine has not already started at least once since the HYbrid4 system was started.
  • When the fuel level enters the reserve zone (illumination of the low fuel warning lamp). Where this reserve is being used up quickly, ZEV may not be possible for some time after refuelling.

- During phases of regeneration of the particle filter (FAP), which is automatically triggered approximately every 300 miles (500 kms) for a period of about 10 minutes. During regeneration of the particle filter, the particles a brought up to a high temperature using the HDI Diesel engine; A message is then displayed: "Electric mode not available: FAP regeneration".

Unsuitable circumstances

  • If certain conditions or engine temperature requirements needed by the HDI Diesel engine are not met (for example, in wintry conditions)
  • Following a prolonged period with the vehicle parked in the sun.
  • When the state of charge of the high voltage battery is close to the maximum level (for example: when going down a long hill using the electric motor for braking), recovery of the vehicle's kinetic energy being no longer possible, the HDI Diesel engine restarts automatically just to provide engine braking.
  • On a steep rising slope.

200 V high voltage battery

Illustration of a rectangular electronic component with ventilation slots and ports, no text or symbols present

The Ni-Mh (Nickel-Metal Hydride) technology used for the high voltage battery is suited to the frequent partial charging and discharging cycles related to the operation of a hybrid vehicle.

The battery is installed close to the electric motor, below the boot trim, behind the storage well

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - V high voltage battery - 2

To preserve the service life of the battery, the level of charge never falls below 20%, even if no bars are displayed on the gauge after ZEV running.

Where the battery is close to maximum, vehicle deceleration with your foot off the accelerator pedal will be at a lower level.

Charging

Illustration of a vehicle battery connected to a motor, showing battery discharge and battery wheel (no text or symbols)

Diagram showing a battery connected to a robotic arm with directional arrows (no text or symbols)

The battery recharges automatically while travelling.

The battery is charged when the vehicle decelerates and when going downhill, the electric motor then becomes a generator and converts kinetic energy into electrical energy (except if the speed of the vehicle is above 70 mph (120 km/h)).

This recovery allows the use of "free" energy. The battery may also be partially charged up to a level of 4 to 5 bars, using the alternator-starter motor (Stop & Start) of the HDi Diesel engine.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Charging - 3

The battery is not recharged from a mainspowersupply.

The battery charging time is very short.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Charging - 4

Once it is discharged, following ZEV running or high load, the battery will reach its optimum level of charge after around 10 minutes.

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Charging - 5

The average state of charge is 4 to 5 bars, so preserving a margin for energy recovery when deceleration or going downhill (freeenergy).

PEUGEOT 508 Hybrid4 (2016) - Charging - 6

The voltage used for the operation of the electric motor is in the range 150 to 270 Volts.

Ventilation of the high voltage battery

Diagram of a car interior showing a vehicle's door, window, and directional arrows (no text or symbols)

The high voltage battery has an air cool system.

This comprises an air intake (located on the rear shelf) and a fan (located behind the left hand boot trim).

This ventilation system does not operate at the same speed at all times: it is continuously adjusted to suit the cooling requirements of the battery.

The noise of its operation can be heard, particularly at the rear, after the HYbrid4 system is switched off (post-ventilation).

! Safety recommendation

Do not obstruct the air intake with objects such as clothes or bags, in order to avoid any risk of the battery overheating, which could cause a loss of performance of the HYbrid4 system, even damage to the battery.

Recovery of the vehicle on a flat-bed

Never recover the vehicle by towing it with two or four wheels on the ground, as there is a risk of damage to the transmission.

However, if necessary because access to the vehicle is difficult, the vehicle can be moved a few dozen metres, at a speed of less than 6 mph (10 km/h).

Before doing any work, with the ignition on, press the brake pedal and place the gear selector at position N, then switch off the HYbrid4 system (READY lamp off)

Always call on professionals for recovery of the vehicle on a flat-bed lorry or trailer.

Frequently asked questions

100% electric mode (zero emissions)

QuestionAnswer
Why is it not always possible for me to select ZEV (Zero Emissions Vehicle) mode even though the battery seems well charged?This situation is temporary.Certain conditions will occasionally prevent the change to ZEV mode, even if the battery has sufficient charge, such as, for example, very cold conditions, altitude, demisting, high demand for heating or air conditioning, regeneration of the particle filter (FAP).
Why do I sometimes see an alert message “Electric mode not available: FAP regeneration in progress”?This is a message which indicates that regeneration of the particle filter (FAP) is in progress. This is a completely normal process that takes place every 240 or 300 miles (400 or 500 km) (or more frequently in prolonged urban use), as on a conventional HDi Diesel vehicle.In the case of a conventional HDi Diesel vehicle, this process is not generally noticed by the driver.On the other hand, in the case of HYbrid4 this phenomenon may be noticeable (in urban use) as temporarily the HDi engine will not stop and this message will be displayed at intervals while regeneration is in progress.
Why is it not possible for me to put the vehicle into ZEV mode, even though I had just been running electrically in AUTOmode?The management o ZEV is different from AUTOmode.Changing toZEV mode is only possible with a battery charge of at least 4 bars, in order to assure sufficient range.In AUTO mode, the system alone manages the conditions for changing temporarily to electric mode, for shorter periods and with a lower state of charge of the battery.
Why is the range in ZEV mode lower when going uphill?The vehicle needs more energy when going uphill than when running on the level.So it is better to stay in AUTO mode, which will favour operation of the HDi Diesel engine.
Why is it that the system makes me come out of ZEV mode; it does not return to ZEVmode automatically when the conditions allow?It is not intended to give preference to ZEV running at any cost, as it is not always the most economical mode.So the system returns automatically to AUTOmode.
QuestionAnswer
How can I optimise my fuel consumption?Give preference to AUTO mode as it selects in the best way the "driving energy source" to use in order to reduce fuel consumption.You should also adapt your driving style to the characteristics of hybrid vehicles to get the best out of it, for example by taking your foot off the accelerator pedal rather than braking and by anticipating decelerations which allows the recovery of "free" energy for charging the battery (entering a built-up area, stop at traffic lights, stop at halt signs, ...).
Why do I not manage to reduce my fuel consumption even though I often drive in ZEV (Zero Emissions Vehicle) mode?It is not ZEV mode but AUTO mode that is the most appropriate for reducing fuel consumption, as it selects the best "driving energy source".ZEV mode (100% electric running) can reduce fuel consumption in some cases. However, recharging the traction battery has an energy cost.This is why we recommend using AUTO mode more often.
Why does the fuel consumption histogram sometimes display consumption of 28 mpg (10 litres/100 km) in town?In traffic jams, the fuel consumption graph may temporarily display high values but, as the distance covered is low, this has very little impact on the average fuel consumption.In urban driving, your HYbrid4 will remain more efficient in terms of fuel consumption compared to a conventional vehicle.
Why is my battery rarely fully charged?A partly charged battery is normal operation (4 to 5 bars on average in AUTO mode).This allows some capacity to be left free for the recovery of energy when decelerating.
Why are there so many fuel alert messages when starting to use the reserve?To encourage you to refuel as soon as possible and to avoid loosing the possibility of all electric running.

Air conditioning / Heating

QuestionAnswer
It seems to me that the vehicle runs less on electric when the heating or air conditioning is operating, is that right?The demand for heating or air conditioning may require the starting of the HDi Diesel engine until the desired level of comfort is attained.Normal operation of the HYbrid4 system is simply put back. The period can be longer under very low or very high ambient temperatures.
It seems to me that when it is very hot and the air conditioning is working, the vehicle runs on electric for shorter periods. Is that right?When it is hot, the periods when the HDi Diesel engine is put on standby and the vehicle runs on electric are necessarily restricted in order to limit the difference between the temperature in the vehicle and the level of comfort selected.In very hot weather, it is possible to press the "ECO OFF" button (which brings the vehicle out of ZEV mode and prevents electric running or the stopping of the engine) to give preference to temperature control (keeps the air conditioning running).

Miscellaneous

QuestionAnswer
Is towing possible with my HYbrid4 vehicle?For information on the towing ability of your HYbrid4 vehicle, refer to "Weights and towed loads" in the "Technical data" section.This allows a jet ski or two-wheeler on a trailer to be towed, for example.This limit is related to maintaining adequate cooling capacity for the HDi Diesel engine as well as the components of the HYbrid4 system that are also cooled by the engine's cooling system.
Why does engine braking seem so strong?If the high voltage battery is not fully charged, the engine braking results mainly from the energy recovery by the electric motor. The power of this engine braking is higher than that of an internal combustion engine.
