the high voltage battery and restore
electric mode.
The high voltage battery will continue
to provide some power and work
together with the engine to provide
peak performance when it is required,
such as driving up a steep incline or
for high acceleration manoeuvres.
The battery will not be charged nor
will electric vehicle range be restored
by the engine.
In either electric mode or extended

open, the engine will run without
turning off if the ignition is on. The
high voltage battery is neither
charged nor discharged when this
occurs.
In either electric mode or extended
range mode, if there is a high voltage
battery fault, the engine may run
without turning off to generate the
required electricity. The malfunction
indicator light will turn on.
