Grounding instructions
Audi charging systems must be grounded. If it
should malfunction or break down, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric
current to reduce the risk of electric shock. Audi
charging systems are equipped with a cord hav-
ing an equipment grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into
an appropriate outlet that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
Z\ WARNING
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor is able to result in a risk
of electric shock. Check with a qualified elec-
trician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to
whether the product is properly grounded. Do
not modify the plug provided with the product
- if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper out-
let installed by a qualified electrician.

@ Tips
— The device runs a self test after power has
been restored to the control unit. If a self
test is successful, all indicator lights will il-
luminate green for two seconds.
— If a household socket is used for the charg-
ing process, the charging power level is au-
tomatically set to 100%. If multiple electri-
cal consumers 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.
— If an industrial socket is used for the charg-
ing process, the charging power level is au-
tomatically set to 50%. To receive the maxi-
mum charging power, the value must be set
to 100%.
— The Audi e-tron compact charging system is
designed for charging at sockets with a volt-
age of 120 V/240 V. If your socket has a dif-
ferent voltage, contact and authorized Audi
dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility.
— If your Audi e-tron compact charging sys-
tem has a fixed connection, meaning can be
connected directly to the power supply
without a power cable, contact a qualified
electrician or an authorized Audi dealer or
authorized Audi Service Facility.
