Operating principle
If the driver adjusts a desired temperature at the IHKA controls, the IHKA
calculates a corresponding
nominal temperature and compares it to the actual output temperature of the

Cooling system
To increase the service life of the high-voltage battery unit and obtain the
greatest possible power, it
is operated in a defined temperature range. The high-voltage battery unit is
essentially operational at
an ambient temperature of -40 ºF to 131 ºF (-40 ºC to +55 ºC ) (actual cell
Overview of charging options
The high-voltage battery unit of the G20 PHEV can generally only be charged
