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.

Hybrid charging cable circuit breaker
The charging cable has a circuit breaker that helps protect against current overloads andelectrical shocks.
If the charging cable's residual current breaker is triggered, the blue indicator light in the chargecoupler will not illuminate when the cable is plug-ged into a 120-/240-volt socket or the red indi-cator light will glow steadily. Have the socketchecked by a licensed electrician or try usinganother 120-/240-volt wall socket.
WARNING
• Charging the hybrid battery may only be done from approved, grounded 120-/240-volt sockets. If the electrical circuitor electrical socket's capacity is notknown, let a licensed electrician inspectthe electrical circuit's capacity. Using acharge level that exceeds the electricalcircuit's or electrical outlet's capacity maystart a fire or damage the electrical cir-cuit.
• The charging cable's residual currentbreaker helps protect the vehicle's charg-ing system but cannot ensure that an cur-rent overload will never occur.
• Never use visibly worn or damaged elec-trical sockets. Doing so could lead to firesor serious injury.
• Never connect the charging cable to anextension cord.
• Maintenance or replacement of the hybridbattery may only be performed by atrained and qualified Volvo service techni-cian.
