MOTOR VEHICLE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF

摘要

In the case that an auxiliary such as the air conditioner is operated with electric power from the commercial power supply by controlling the charger prior to the system startup and the inter-terminal voltage of the battery is more than or equal to the threshold value Vref that is a voltage where there is a possibility of overcharging the battery when the battery is charged, the supply voltage of the electric power supplied from the charger is set to the voltage that is a little smaller than the threshold value, and the auxiliary is operated with the electric power from the battery and the electric power from the charger. This arrangement enables to prevent overcharging the battery and to operate the auxiliary in the case that an auxiliary such as the air conditioner is operated with electric power from the commercial power supply by controlling the charger prior to the system startup.
