STARTING AND DRIVING
192
WARNING
166) Parking and other potentially
dangerous manoeuvres are, however,
always the driver’s responsibility. While
carrying out these manoeuvres, always
make sure that no people (especially
children) or animals are in the area
concerned. The camera is an aid for the
driver, but the driver must never allow
his/her attention to lapse during potentially
dangerous manoeuvres, even those
executed at low speeds. Always keep a slow
speed, so as to promptly brake in the case of
obstacles.
IMPORTANT
74) It is vital, for correct operation, that
the camera is always kept clean and free
from any mud, dirt, snow or ice. Be careful
not to scratch or damage the camera while
cleaning it. Avoid using dry, rough or hard
cloths. The camera must be washed using
clean water, with the addition of vehicle
shampoo if necessary. In washing stations
which use steam or high-pressure jets, clean
the camera quickly, keeping the nozzle more
than 10 cm away from the sensors. Also, do
not apply stickers to the camera.
"eCoasting" mode (ENERGY
SAVING)
It is a mode that, when the accelerator
pedal is released, recovers energy during
the slowing down phase of the car.
The "eCoasting" mode, always active
regardless of the selected operating
mode (use of the heat engine or electric
motor), maximises energy recovery when
the accelerator and brake pedals are
released.
Driving in "eCoasting" mode is possible if
the automatic transmission/electrified
dual clutch automatic transmission gear
lever is in "D" (Drive).
INTERVENTION TYPE SELECTION
During deceleration, with a gear engaged,
the electric motor charges the auxiliary
lithium battery (48V) and the traditional
battery (12V).
When the accelerator pedal is released
with the gear engaged, the electric motor
acts as an engine brake (“eCoasting”
mode): this contribution is increased by
pressing the brake pedal at the same
time ("eBraking” mode). The recovered
energy is made available later, helping to
save fuel.
"eBraking” MODE
During deceleration, with a gear
engaged, the electric motor charges the
auxiliary lithium battery (48V) and the
conventional lead battery (12V).
The electric motor acts as an engine
brake (“eCoasting” mode): this
contribution is increased by pressing the
brake pedal at the same time ("eBraking”
mode). The recovered energy is made
available later, helping to save fuel.
"eCreeping” MODE
This mode makes it possible, with
the heat engine off, to move the car
forwards or backwards in electric
mode by releasing the brake pedal and
without having to press down on the
accelerator pedal as soon as the lever
for the electrified dual clutch automatic
transmission is moved to "D" (Drive), "R"
(Reverse) or when selecting “Sequential
mode” ("creeping" effect).
NOTE "eCreeping" mode is only
performed if the lithium ion auxiliary
battery (48V) is charged sufficiently.
For more information on the use of
the electrified dual clutch automatic
transmission, see what is described in
the relative chapters in this section.
