V60 D6 Hybrid keeps charging the battery while driving

Hi guys!

I am a happy owner of a V60 D6 Hybrid for 3 years now. I bought it used and when I bought it, everytime I was driving outside of the city it was charging the battery automatically every 150-300kms. I am talking about "Hybrid" mode not "Save" mode. So every time I would take a trip of ex. 500kms it would charge the battery automatically 2-3 times.

Lately this started happening all the time. The car keeps the battery charged almost all the time. When it stops charging it it will wait for 40-50kms and then it will start charging it again.

Why this is happening? Is it normal? Why it decides to charge the battery on it's own? In the manual I saw that it charges the battery when it cleans the DPF. So I assumed that the DPF is full and cant be cleaned automatically and I went to the mechanic and asked them to clean my DPF filter. They said that it's totally clean and it doesn't need further cleaning!

So do you know what is happening? Should I be worried?

Thanks
