Hybrid charging cable circuit
breaker
The charging cable has a circuit breaker that
helps protect against current overloads and
electrical shocks.
If the charging cable's residual current breaker is
triggered, the blue indicator light in the charge
coupler will not illuminate when the cable is plug-
ged into a 120-/240-volt socket or the red indi-
cator light will glow steadily. Have the socket
checked by a licensed electrician or try using
another 120-/240-volt wall socket.
WARNING
•
Charging the hybrid battery may only be
done from approved, grounded 120-/
240-volt sockets. If the electrical circuit
or electrical socket's capacity is not
known, let a licensed electrician inspect
the electrical circuit's capacity. Using a
charge level that exceeds the electrical
circuit's or electrical outlet's capacity may
start a fire or damage the electrical cir-
cuit.
•
The charging cable's residual current
breaker helps protect the vehicle's charg-
ing system but cannot ensure that an cur-
rent overload will never occur.
•
Never use visibly worn or damaged elec-
trical sockets. Doing so could lead to fires
or serious injury.
•
Never connect the charging cable to an
extension cord.
•
Maintenance or replacement of the hybrid
battery may only be performed by a
trained and qualified Volvo service techni-
cian.
