Techincal And User Docs That Everyone Should Have

G'day All,

I am not sure if similar documents reside elsewhere on this forum but I have come into possession of a number of what I believe to be very important electronic documents pertaining to the Outlander PHEV, which I believe may prove beneficial to other members of this forum also.

As an example, I had suggested in one post that perhaps us Aussies could collectively gang up on Mitisi Australia and asked to have the fast charge adaptor retro fitted into our PHEVs. However, upon reading the all important and must read "Emergency Procedures Manual", I have now found reference to the fact that there are two different battery pack types (i.e. Type A for Australia and a Type B pack for other jurisdictions that have the fast charge option). Therefore, it would appear that a Type B pack is specifically required and designed for a fast charge and so I can only imagine that any such desired retro fit would (presumably) require a Type B battery pack change over. OUCH!! I must say I am not a happy camper upon reading/learning this.

Also, you will find that the Technical Highlights Manual has a number of interesting points. One such point was that the inverters cause a 15% loss on DC to AC conversion. I find this statistic rather unusual if not unsatisfactory given that a good household solar inverter, that does pretty well the same thing will be at least 93-98% efficient (???). Another point that I am sure will answer a few questions is that vehicle efficiency and therefore fuel economy can be significantly affected when EV mode remains activated if and when you exceed 120Km/Hr - due to magnetic induction of the electric motors causing drag. Given my background, I specifically had similar concerns about this very issue with respect to regenerative braking remaining active and causing perhaps similar drag issues above certain speed thresholds, thereby potentially affecting fuel economies on long haul trips. Unfortunately, my specific query regarding any drag due to regen is still not answered within the pages of any of these documents but I suspect given this info about the 120Km/hr threshold that there could very well be some drag if regen is active - though any inherent drag might be negligible at lower speeds.

Anyway, I hope all this info helps and that you all get many happy hours of informative reading

Cheers from

I was supplied a paper version on all but the normal car user manual during pre sales discussions at my dealer. I had photocopied the documents, but no scanner.

Excellent work supplying these electronic documents in one place.

Having electronic formats is great and all PHEV owners will benefit. The Remote document is invaluable when you need to update wifi devices, say when you get a new phone or tablet and you have to reset the wifi devices.

G'day GWATPE and all,

Glad to be of some help here Gordon. Upon review, I found a couple more files, which I have now uploaded below, but I suspect they will be of little value as compared to the last lot I provided. In any case here they are:

PS I have some IMev documents also if people are interested.

Thank you a lot Pete, these docs (especially the technicien training guide) are gems !

Your welcome Grigou. Glad you found them of use/interest.

Cheers

Hi Pete,

Wow mate, that is great. Thanks so much for putting these up for all of us. Should be many hours of happy reading!

You're very welcome Sawman82. Enjoy!

Great stuff, especially the technical highlights doc. It goes way beyond anything I have seen so far. And I believe I have seen quite a lot :mrgreen:

I bumped this back up as it seems some old questions are reappearing and a lot of the answers were in the Technical Highlights Manual.

Unfortunately all the links in your previous post have died or dropbox has deleted them, would you be kind enough to repost them.
Many thanks

You can also find good stuff here:

:shock:
Some really useful PHEV documents were posted way back when PHEVs were little known about. Now the links to them seem dead particularly those in a dropbox locations.

Can anyone help with refreshing them?
Thanks
