HYBRID INFORMATION

Charging with the petrol engine
The car generates current to the battery and the battery
is charged, e.g. when the brake pedal is pressed gently
or during engine braking down a hill.
The car can also generate power for the hybrid
battery and the battery is charged.
•
The hybrid battery is recharged during gentle
braking with the brake pedal. The car's
kinetic energy is then converted to electrical
energy, which is used to charge the hybrid
battery.
•
In gear position
B
, the car undergoes electric
motor braking when the accelerator pedal is
released and the hybrid battery is recharged
at the same time.
•
The hybrid battery can also be charged by
the car's engine.

Charging current
Charging current is used for charging the hybrid
battery as well as preconditioning of the car. The
charging cable between the car's charging input
socket and a 230 V socket
2
(alternating current)
can be set for different current intensity loads
(6-16 A) using the control unit.
When the charging cable is activated, the driver
display shows a message and a lamp in the car's
charging input socket illuminates. The charging
current is mainly used for battery charging, but is
also used for preconditioning the car. When the
car's hybrid battery is charged, the starter battery
is also charged.
Never unplug the charging cable from the
230 V socket (alternating current) while
charging is in progress - there is then a risk
of damaging the 230 V socket. Always stop
charging first before unplugging the charging
cable from the car's charging input socket
and then from the 230 V socket.
Charging time varies with the amperage setting
on the control unit. The following charging times
apply to optimal charging, i.e. when no climate
control function or other load is affecting charg-

The voltage in the socket may vary depending on market.
