When the drive system is connected and
while driving, information on the power used
and on the available power is displayed in the
instrument panel display.

When connecting the drive system before
starting to move, the indicator changes from

When the vehicle is moving, the power used
at that moment to move is indicated in the in-
strument panel display (in % PWR x 10)

Operation
When the indicator needle is in the blue
A
zone, the vehicle is moving with a particu-
larly low energy consumption.
When the indicator needle is in the green
B
zone, the brake energy and kinetic energy
are converted into electrical energy (en-
ergy recuperation) by the electric drive
system and stored in the high-voltage
battery.
Indication of available power
While driving, the current available power of
the electric engine is displayed on the instru-

ment panel display

When all segments are displayed, it means
that the maximum power of the electric en-
gine is available. Having high power available
is necessary for, i.e. accelerating the vehicle
quickly to, for example, overtake safely.
If a lot of power is required for a long period
of time (it is mainly seen because the power
indicator needle is above the low consump-
›››
tion zone)
Fig. 60
), the time during
A
which the maximum power is available is re-
duced. In the indication of the available pow-
er, the segments of the E-Max zone turn off
from right to left.
When all segments of the E-Max zone turn off,
it means that the maximum power of the
electric engine is no longer available
there is still a high demand, the power cur-
rently available is reduced, which is indicated
by the shortening of the Normal zone bar,
starting from the right. Based on the length of
the bar, it is possible to know how much the
drive power has been reduced. If less power
is then used, the available power gradually
increases once again.
Limited availability of power may be related
to driving behaviour, i.e., accelerating the ve-
hicle quickly. In general, the available power
is limited under the following conditions:
. When the in-
The temperature of the high-voltage bat-
●
tery is very low or very high.
The level of charge of the high-voltage bat-
.
●
tery is low.
When the charge level of the high-voltage
battery approaches the reserve level, in addi-
tion to the available power, the maximum
speed at which the vehicle can be driven is
also reduced. Charge the high voltage bat-
tery as soon as possible
WARNING
If the vehicle is driven with a very low a
charge level of the high-voltage battery,
the vehicle may stall in traffic, causing seri-
ous damage or accidents and injuries.
Always ensure that the charge level of
●
the high-voltage battery is sufficient!
