Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A fuel cell vehicle is provided that can perform communicative filling only in a case in which it is possible to perform communicative filling appropriately. The vehicle includes: a pressure sensor and temperature sensor; a communication system that transmits data signals generated based on the outputs of these sensors; a battery; a lidded box that protects a hydrogen feed port; a lid switch; and a communicative filling ECU that activates the communication system after the lid has been opened. The ECU determines, based on the state of an activation prohibited flag, whether being a state in which activation of the system is not permitted in response to an opened-state of the lid having been detected. The ECU does not activate the system in a case of the flag being ON, and activates the system in a case of the flag being OFF.

First claim
