Charging cable information
Before using the charging cable, also follow
the instructions displayed on it and on the
rear of the protective device.
Protection device
The electronic protection device ››› Fig. 216
ensures that the charging connector does
not receive current until it is plugged in to the
vehicle's charging connector.
Self-check
When the charging cable is plugged into the
electrical socket, the protective device auto-
matically performs a self-test. During this
check, all warning and indicator lamps turn
on briefly and go out one after the other.
Upon completion, the operational status at
that time is displayed.

throttle. Refuel with super as soon as possi-
ble.

the engine. Ask your service station attendant
if their diesel is suitable for winter use.
