eSave
The following functions are
available from the MyDS App
application, which is accessible
from a smartphone:
The eSave function makes it possible to reserve
all or part of the electrical energy in the traction
battery for later use during a journey (e.g. driving
in an urban area or in an area reserved for electric
vehicles).
– Managing the traction battery charging
(deferred charging).
►ꢀ Select the electric range to be reserved (10
km, 20 km or the full range MAX) then activate
the function by pressing ON.
– Managing the temperature pre-conditioning.
– Viewing the state of charge and range of the
vehicle.
Activation of the function is confirmed by
the lighting of this indicator lamp on the
instrument panel and the indication of the energy
reserve in miles or kms.
Installation procedure
►ꢀ Download the MyDS App app from the
appropriate online store for your smartphone.
►ꢀ Create an account.
►ꢀ Enter the vehicle’s VIN (code beginning with
"VF" on the vehicle registration certificate).
For more information on Identification markings,
refer to the corresponding section.
►ꢀ To use the energy reserve, choose the Electric
driving mode in the mode selector.
If the requested range exceeds the
available range (not recommended), the
internal combustion engine starts to recharge
the traction battery up to the requested
threshold. This leads to excessive fuel
consumption.
Network coverage
In order to be able to use the various
remotely operable features, ensure that your
vehicle is located in an area covered by the
mobile network.
Remote functions
(Rechargeable hybrid)
A lack of network coverage may prevent
communication with the vehicle (for example,
if it is in an underground car park). In such
cases, the application will display a message
indicating that the connection with the vehicle
could not be established.
