Equalisation Charging
In order to assist in extending the service
life of the high voltage battery pack it is
recommended that an equalisation charge is
carried out at regular intervals.
Please see "Equalisation Charging" in the
"Starting & Driving" section.
Intelligent Charging
The
12V
battery
SOC
is
monitored, when the Start/Stop switch is
in the OFF position it is possible, under
certain conditions, that the HV battery will
automatically charge the 12V battery to
ensure the vehicle starts. This function will
activate and switch off automatically.
Note: The system will suspend intelligent
charging if a fault is present, when starting
or the vehicle is being charged by an
external device.
Note: The driving range will be reduced
after intelligent charging.
Note: The intelligent charging function is
suspended when the high voltage battery
is in a low SOC.
Crash Outage Control
constantly
If a crash or serious impact occurs, a signal
from the SDM (Airbag Control Module)
will disconnect the relays within the battery
management system isolating the high voltage
battery from the systems on the vehicle.
