Abstract:
A method of operating a vehicle braking system comprising one or more frictional braking devices and one or more regenerative braking devices. The method comprises receiving one or more electrical signals indicative of a brake command. The method further comprises determining whether one or more predetermined conditions are met in response to the received brake command, wherein at least one of the predetermined condition(s) comprises a condition pertaining to the one or more frictional braking devices. The method still further comprises inhibiting the operation of at least one of the one or more regenerative braking devices and actuating at least one of the one or more frictional braking devices when at least certain of the one or more predetermined conditions are met in order to carry out the received brake command and to also bed-in brake pad lining(s) of the actuated frictional braking devices.

Claim (Index 21):
A vehicle, comprising:\n a braking system having one or more regenerative braking devices and one or more frictional braking devices; a system for controlling the operation of a vehicle braking system comprising one or more frictional braking devices and one or more regenerative braking devices, the system comprising: means for receiving one or more electrical signals indicative of a brake command; means for determining whether one or more predetermined conditions are met in response to the received brake command, wherein at least one of the predetermined condition(s) comprises a condition pertaining to the one or more frictional braking devices; and means for automatically commanding that the operation of at least one of the one or more regenerative braking devices be inhibited and that at least one of the one or more frictional braking devices be actuated when at least certain of the one or more predetermined conditions are met in order to carry out the received brake command and to bed-in brake pad lining(s) of the actuated frictional braking device(s).
