STARTING AND DRIVING
394
Hybrid battery: stores electrical current, which is provided by connecting the chargingcable to the electricity grid, through regener-ative braking or from the high-voltage gener-ator. This makes it possible to drive using theelectric motor or to power the electrical airconditioning to precondition the passengercompartment.
Gasoline engine: starts when the charge level in the electric motor is too low to pro-vide the power output that the driver requires.
High voltage generator3
: charges the hybrid
battery and starts the gasoline engine. It can also provide the gasoline engine with extraelectrical current.
Electric motor: powers the vehicle using electricity and can provide extra torque andpower during acceleration. It combines with the gasoline engine to provide all-wheel drivefunctionality and regenerates braking energyinto electrical current.

Automatically connecting to a workshop
Without driver confirmation
This is the most convenient way to transmit trou- ble-shooting data. The driver does not need toconfirm that the vehicle will establish a connec-tion. If the vehicle stops at a workshop and the engine is switched off using the start knob, a messagewill appear above the status bar in the center dis-play. The vehicle will be automatically connectedwhen the driver's door is opened if the driver does not tap the
Cancel button in the message.
To help prevent the driver from being disturbed by unwanted requests to connect (e.g., if thevehicle is often parked near a workshop with anauthorized Volvo network), the vehicle will switchto manual connection if the driver cancels a con-nection request twice within 5 days.
With driver confirmation
With this alternative, the driver must confirm a connection. If the vehicle stops at a workshop and the engine is switched off using the start knob, a pop-upwindow will open in the center display. The vehi-cle will be automatically connected when the driv- er's door is opened if the driver taps
Connect in
the pop-up window. If the driver does nothing or taps the pop-up window's
Abort button, no
attempt will be made to establish a connection.
NOTE
To help prevent the driver from being distur- bed by unwanted requests to connect (e.g., ifthe vehicle is often parked near a workshopwith an authorized Volvo network), the vehiclewill switch to manual connection if the drivercancels a connection request twice within5 days.
Manually connecting to a workshopManual connections are handled by the service technician.
