A method and apparatus for providing instructions to operate a manual release are provided. The method includes detecting a condition for providing a notification to operate a manual release of the vehicle; and controlling to output the notification to operate the manual release based on the detected condition. The apparatus and method may be used in a vehicle or other apparatus to prevent a user from being hindered from egress in a vehicle during times at which the electronic door release is not operable.

A pre-charging and voltage supply system for a DC-AC inverter is provided. The system includes a first battery having a first anode and a first cathode, and a second battery having a second anode and a second cathode. The first cathode is electrically isolated from the second cathode. The system includes a contactor coupled in series between the first anode and an electrical node. The system includes a microprocessor that generates a first control signal to induce a DC-DC voltage converter to increase a voltage level applied to the DC-AC inverter. The microprocessor generates a second control signal to induce the contactor transition to a closed position such that a first voltage level is applied to the DC-AC inverter, if the voltage level between the electrical node and the first cathode is greater than a threshold voltage level.

A hybrid vehicle control device is provided that is capable of controlling a drive source according to a travel plan. The hybrid vehicle control device is configured to be mounted in a hybrid vehicle including a drive source having an engine and a motor/generator, and a navigation system that acquires travel environment information of a planned travel route. The control device is configured such that, upon selection of a “travel plan mode”, which controls the drive source according to a travel plan set for low fuel travel based on travel environment information acquired from the navigation system in the absence of the selection of an “eco-mode”, which controls the drive source to prioritize fuel efficiency over power performance, the selection of the “travel plan mode” is linked with a setting operation for the “eco-mode”.

A construction machine includes an engine, a load estimation unit that estimates a pump power absorption, a regeneration/powering power demand calculation unit that calculates a regeneration/powering power demand according to a state of charge in an electrical storage device, an engine power demand calculation unit that calculates an engine power demand based on the power absorption and regeneration/powering power demand, and a motor generator control unit that performs rotational speed control or torque control.
