In this operating mode, the electric motor and
the combustion engine shar
e the work of driv-
ing the vehicle.
In hybrid operating mode, the power from
the battery charge is used optimally. If route
guidance is activated, the vehicle may autono-
mously recharge the high-voltage battery using
the combustion engine.
Manual control of the battery charge
Manual control of the battery charge is only
possible in Hybrid operating mode. The option
selected by the user is only valid until the igni-
tion is switched o or the vehicle is switched to
Hybrid mode or E-MODE.
Press the function button
and use the sym-
bol
s
, = and to control the battery charge:
Pressing this symbol selects a higher the-
or
etical charge level. The vehicle tries to
reach that new theoretical high-voltage
battery charge level while driving. The vehi-
cle is powered by the combustion engine. If
the combustion engine has “excess” power,
it is used to charge the high-voltage bat-
tery.
This option increases fuel consumption.
SEAT therefore recommends using the
charging socket to charge the high-voltage
battery, whenever possible ›››page76.
The high-voltage battery charge level is
k
ept at around the current level while driv-
ing. If you accelerate harder or increase
the vehicle speed, the combustion engine
starts up. When permitted by the driver’s
demand for acceleration and the vehicle
speed, the vehicle switches back to electric
mode.
Pressing this symbol selects a lower theo-
retical charge level. The vehicle only uses
the battery's charge when it is above the
selected theoretical charge level. The rest
is kept until the end of the journey.
The Intelligent Hybrid App allows the user
to save electrical energy until reaching home
(charging point) with just “one click”. If this op-
tion is not selected, the maximum amount of
electrical energy will be consumed until the se-
lected destination is reached. If the user has
no active route, the function will oer the acti-
vation of a predictive route and BMA mode from
the widget itself with just one click.
Show the active operating mode
The operating mode active at any given time is
displayed on the instrument cluster display, e.g.
.
WARNING
Switching to a dier
ent operating mode
while driving can distract you from trac
conditions and cause accidents.
Note
Information about the operating mode that
is curr
ently active is displayed on the instru-
ment cluster display, along with the charge
level of the high-voltage battery.
Troubleshooting
Valid for: hybrid vehicles
E-MODE operating mode is not availa-
bl
e
The indicator lamp lights up in white.
The E-MODE operating mode
(driving in
el
ectric mode) cannot be used temporarily be-
cause one or more conditions are not met.
The conditions must be met to use the E-
MODE operating mode.
