GETTING STARTED.

CHARGING CABLES.

The i3 is available with two charging cables; one optional
32 amp AC Fast Charge cable (colour blue) that can be used
at public charging points, and a 10 amp domestic use cable
(colour black) that can be plugged straight into a normal
13 amp household socket.
We advise you to take care when plugging the cable into
a household socket and ensure it is only plugged into a safe
and secure environment. Extension leads must not be used.

INTEGRATED OWNER'S HANDBOOK.

The i3 has an integrated Owner's Handbook which can be
accessed via the iDrive Controller found in the centre console.
To access this press the MENU button (found next to the
iDrive Controller), turn the iDrive Controller to select 'Vehicle
Information' and then select 'Owner's Handbook'.

REMOVING THE CHARGING CABLE.

If the charging cable is attached when you arrive at the i3 prior
to departing it will need to be unplugged. If the charge point is
lit green the i3 has completed charging.
During the charge process the i3 will lock the charge cable to
secure it. To remove the cable, unlock the vehicle which will
release the lock on the cable for a short amount of time.
Hold the charge cable by the end connecting into the i3
securely and pull it towards yourself to remove it.
Replace the i3's charge port cover and close the flap by
depressing it to lock.
If applicable remove the other end of the cable from the charge
point by following the guide provided at the charge point.
The cable should be correctly wound, without bending or
kinking and be placed in the boot. Alternatively if fitted, place
the cable in the bag located in the front compartment (bonnet)
of the i3.
