When does the generator recharge the battery pack?

civicracer32 · 05-19-2007, 03:20 PM

When the IMA's battery charge get's low, I'm aware that the generator kicks in to recgarge the battery pack. When this happens does it recharge it to full capacity? Can't find any technical info so far on when this kicks on. Bought my car friday and I'm curious

I don't want to sound condescending, but have you checked the manual? So far, we don't have very many hybrid owners on the site, so information is scarce. Good luck in your search.

Yeah, checked the manual, doesn't say. Watched Honda's video on the 2006 civic hybrid, no luck there either. Nonthing on Honda's website about it either. Oh well...guess I 'll figure it out soon enough.

When you figure it out, be sure to share the knowledge.
