Charging Current - Volvo XC 90 Owner's Manual

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 lightly
or during engine braking down a hill.
The hybrid battery can also be charged by the
car's engine. The hybrid battery is recharged dur-
ing gentle braking with the brake pedal.
The hybrid battery is also recharged during
engine braking in gear position B when e.g. trav-
elling downhill.
