Saving Electric Charge

Unread post by FranBlackburn »

Hi Forum Members
We recently purchased a DS7 ETENSE and would like to know the best method of saving Electric Charge for use when returning to city driving after driving normally on Hybrid...if I leave on Hybrid it seems to use all the charge by default
Thanks

Have a read of your manual. You need to activate the e-save option after setting the range you wish to reserve for use on electrical power. If the range you request is not available based on the current charge of the traction battery, then the combustion engine will kick in to charge the battery to get to the desired battery charge level before e-save mode engages.
