One thing you will notice pretty quickly is that if you try to get every last ounce of power out of the battery, by driving on it as much as possible and not giving it adequate time to recharge normally, eventually the FusionH will just override your inputs and start charging the battery. When this happens, it will not kick over into EV mode no matter what your input. You can stop at a traffic light, or drift down a long hill, still the engine will be running recharging the battery. This cycle will run for some period of time, it seems like maybe 5 - 7 minutes, and then you will see the charge rise on the charging gauge and once it gets to a high enough level you will begin to be able to engage the EV mode again normally.
I'm still learning about this cycle and intend to do another post shortly as more info becomes available.
