INFORMATION
■ Traction battery heating and cooling system (traction battery heater and traction
battery cooler)
● The system operates when the hybrid battery (traction battery) is below or above a
certain temperature.
● The system may operate when charging is not being performed.
● When the charging schedule is used, this function will operate according to the
charging schedule.
■ Traction battery heater
● When traction battery heater is operating, the charging indicator illuminates.
● When the AC charging cable is removed from the vehicle or remains connected to
the vehicle for approximately 3 days, the system automatically stops.
● When traction battery heater is operating during charging, the charging time may be
longer than normal.
● If the outside temperature becomes high while traction battery heater is operating,
charging may complete earlier than the [Departure time] set.
● When the following operations are performed while traction battery heater is operat-
ing, the heating operation stops.
•
The shift position is changed to any position other than P
● Traction battery heater may operate even when the hybrid battery (traction battery) is
fully charged depending on the temperature of the hybrid battery (traction battery).
• The remaining charge of the hybrid battery (traction battery) decreases when
traction battery heater operates. The charging operation may start again to charge
the hybrid battery (traction battery).
• "Charging Stopped Due to Pulled Charging Connector" may be shown when the
charging connector is removed while recharging.
■ Traction battery cooler
● The charging indicator is illuminated while traction battery cooler is on standby or
operating.
● Traction battery cooler is implemented for a maximum of approximately 30 minutes.
However, when the [Departure time] is set and there is not sufficient time between
the current time and the time that charging will complete, traction battery cooler
operation time may become shorter.
● When there is a small amount of remaining charge in the hybrid battery (traction
battery), even if the hybrid battery (traction battery) is hot, traction battery cooler may
not be implemented.
