To ensure that the brackets within the charging
cable controls are not subjected to incorrect
loads, observe the following: R
Never lift or carry the controls by the charging
cable connector or the mains plug. R
To transport the charging cable, the charging
cable can be: -
wrapped around the controls or -
secured to the housing of the controls
Heat generated by the charging cable
and charging cable connector Pay attention to the "Important safety notes"
( Y
page 29).
During the charging process, the charging cable
and charging cable connector may heat up.
The charging cable and the charging cable con-
nector will only heat up within the permissible
limiting values, provided that: R
the power supply and the charging cable are
not damaged R
the instructions for handling the charging
cable and controls on the charging cable are
observed
If the charging cable or charging cable connec-
tor become too hot, have the mains power sup-
ply checked.
Protection device against overvoltage
! Overvoltage in the mains supply may dam-
age the vehicle. For this reason, the vehicle is
equipped with a protection device against
overvoltage in the mains supply. This device
may be triggered during severe thunder-
storms, for example, and may lead to the buil-
ding's fuse being tripped and an interruption
in the power supply. These functions protect
the vehicle. After the building fuse is switched
on again, the charging process resumes auto-
matically. Following an interruption in the
power supply or tripping of the building's fuse,
it may take up to 10 minutes for charging to
resume automatically.
Switch on the building protection system again
after it has been triggered. Otherwise, the
charging process cannot be continued. General information about the charging
procedure Pay attention to the "Important safety notes"
( Y
page 29).
The vehicle socket is located in the rear bumper
on the right below the tail lamp.
The charge socket flap and the vehicle are cen-
trally locked or unlocked simultaneously.
