Start and driving
CUPRA therefore recommends using
the char
ging sock
et to charge the high-
voltage battery, whenever possible
›››
page 303 .
The high-voltage battery charge level is
kept at around the current level while
driving. If you accelerate harder or in-
crease the vehicle speed, the combus-
tion 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 the-
oretical 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
option is not selected, the maximum amount
of electrical energy will be consumed until
the selected destination is reached. If the
user has no active route, the function will of-
fer the activation of a predictive route and
BMA mode from the widget itself with just
one click.

WARNING
Switching to a different operating mode
while driving can distract you from traffic
conditions and cause accidents.
Note
Information about the operating mode that
is currently active is displayed on the in-
strument cluster display, along with the
charge level of the high-voltage battery.
Troubleshooting

a
vailable
The indicator lamp lights up in white.
The E-MODE operating mode
(driving in
electric mode) cannot be used temporarily
because one or more conditions are not
