A controller, while operating an evaporator to remove heat from air in a cabin and during absence of requests to heat the cabin and a traction battery, flows coolant from a water cooled condenser to a circuit arranged to exchange heat with the traction battery until a temperature of the traction battery is less than a battery threshold temperature or a temperature of the coolant is greater than a coolant threshold temperature.
