1 Battery Conditioning
僅 The Battery conditioning mode is effi -
cient during the winter time when the
high voltage battery temperature is
low. This mode is recommended to
improve driving and DC charging per -
formances during winter. However,
the driving distance may be reduced
as more energy is required to increase
battery temperature.
僅 If the battery temperature is low
during driving, Battery conditioning
mode raises the battery temperature
to an adequate level. If the battery
temperature is low when scheduled
air conditioner/heater is activated, this
mode is operated to improve driving
and charging performance. However,
the mode is not operated to ensure
driving distance when the battery
level is low.
僅 If you set a DC charging station as a
destination in battery conditioning
mode, you can reduce the charging
time by raising the battery tempera -
ture to an adequate level when you
arrive.
僅 The Battery conditioning mode indica -
tor light illuminates while battery con -
ditioning mode is activated.
