ATer an accident, do not touch any com-
ponents of the high-voltage on-board
electrical system. #
ATer an accident, ha vetheve hicle trans-
por tedawa y. #
Have the components of the high-voltage
on-board electrical system checked at a
qu ali/ed specialist workshop and
re placed if necessar y. The components of
the high-voltage on-board
electrical system are mar ked with yellow warning
stic kers. The cables of the high-voltage on-board
electrical system are orange.
Ve hicles with hybrid systems generate signi/-
cant lyless noise when stationary and when being
driven than vehicles with combustion engines.
When driving in elect ric mode, theve hicle may
not be heard by otherroad users due tothe signif-
icantly reduced noise generated. It is
forth is reason that theve hicle is equipped
with a sound generator, which ser ves as an acous-
tic vehicle alerting system (A VAS). Declar

Connecting thech arging cable toach arging
station using a damaged component part
could cause a /re or an elect ric shoc k,for
ex ample. #
Forch arging stations with a preinstalled
ch arging cable:
R Perform a visual check of thech arg-
ing station for obvious faults, such as
massive damage tothe housing or
ch arging cable. #
Forch arging stations without a preinstal-
led charging cable:
R For saf etyre asons, only use charging
cables that ha vebeen tested and
appro vedby the manufacturer for
ch arging the high-voltage battery in
an electric vehicle.
R Never use damaged charging cables.
R Do not extend thech arging cable. R
Do not use adap ters. #
Make sure toobser vethe saf ety in form a-
tion on thech arging station. Most
charging stations must be activated before
th ech arging process, e.g. using an RFID card.
Obser vethe on-site operator's inst ructions forthe
ch arging station.
The charging cable forth eve hicle must not be
lon gerth an 30 m due tothe legal requ irements in
some countries. This is toprev ent the inter fer-
ence of signals being received byradio communi-
cation devices in theve hicle or in close pr oximity
to thech arging station. Be awarethat parts of the
ch arging cable may be routed under ground. If in
doubt, ask thech arging station operator if this is
th e case before charging the high-voltage batter y.
The amount of energy dispensed forth ech arging
process, shown bythech arging station, may be
higher than the amount of energy actually absor-
bed bythe high-voltage batter y.This is there sult
of di.erent le vels of charging losses and is descri-
bed as rech arge e1ciency. Charging losses occur,
fo rex ample, due toheat that builds up when ch
arging or from auxiliary consumers that are
switched on. Further information on rech arge e1-
ciency can be obtained at a quali/ed specialist
wo rkshop. Se
