play 3 ash orange and, as soon as the high-
voltage battery is charged, green.
When the charging cable is connected to the vehi-
cle, the vehicle cannot be started or moved.
At the start of the charging process, the charge
level display is shown in the Instrument Display
with a charging prediction. The charging predic-
tion either refers to the predicted charge level at
the set departure time, or the time at which the
high-voltage battery will be fully charged.

Depending on the temperature, the fan and
battery cooling system may audibly switch on
during the charging process.

If the vehicle is idle for lengthy periods and
connected to the mains supply, the high-volt-
age battery will be recharged automatically as
needed or when electrical consumers are
activated (e.g. the pre-entry climate control).
%
The vehicle is equipped with an electrical fuse
which protects it against overvoltage in the
mains supply. This electrical fuse may trip dur-
ing severe thunderstorms, for example, and
may cause the fuse in the building to trip or
and status dis- may interrupt the charging process. These
functions protect the vehicle.
A er the fuse in the building is switched on
again, the charging process resumes automat-
ically. Following an interruption in the power
supply without the fuse in the building being
tripped, it may take up to ten minutes for
charging to resume automatically.
