(D Tips
- If a ho usehold socket is used fo r the charg­
i ng process, the charging powe r leve l is au­
tomatically set to 100% . If multiple electri ­
ca l cons umers are connected to a circuit,
the charging power may be limited to 50%
when charging with a household socket in
order to relieve the load on the electrical in­
stallation. This does not apply to 100/110 V
household sockets since the charging power
would be too low and this would cause the
chargi ng p rocess to end.
- If an industr ial socket is used for the charg­
i ng process, the charging power leve l is au­
tomatically set to 50% . To receive the max i­
mum charging power, the value must be set
to 100% .
- A selected val ue rema ins set unt il the power
cable is connected again .

Charging times
Applies to vehicles: w ith plug-in hybrid drive
The length of the charg ing process using the Audi
e-tron charging system can vary based on the fol­
lowing factors:
- Sockets be ing used (household or industrial
sockets).
- System voltage and current strength specific to
a country.
- The value set for the charg ing power level on
the control unit (SO% or 100%) .
- Fluctuations in the system voltage .
- Temperature outside the vehicle.
- Temperature of the high-voltage battery .
- Adjustments to the climate control inside the
vehicle.
- Current capacity of the charging connector.
Examples of charging times

(D Tips
-Multiple versions of charging cables are of­
fered due to the different power supply sys­
tems in different countries. The maximum
charging power may potentially be unavaila­
ble because of this. Contact an author ized

cility for more information.
- Th e charging times may be longer in ex­
tremely high or low temperatures .
