Type 2 plug or outlet used for AC
charging
When charging at a public AC
charging station, follow the
instructions for the use of the
respective charging station. Public
AC charging stations may not provide
an integrated charging cable. In this
case, a portable mode 3 charging
cable is required.
9 Warning
When charging at a domestic
electrical outlet, only use an outlet
which is properly grounded and
protected by a 30 mA differential
switch.
Only use a domestic electrical
outlet protected by a circuit
breaker adapted to the amperage
of the electrical circuit.
Have a qualified electrician check
the electrical installation to be
used. The installation has to be in
compliance with national
standards and compatible with the
vehicle.
When using a dedicated domestic
electrical outlet, have it installed
by a qualified electrician.
Make sure that the electrical
outlet, the plug and the cable do
not support the weight of the
control box.
9 Warning
The engine does not start if the
charging cable is connected to the
vehicle. A warning is displayed in
the Driver Information Centre.
During the charging process,
unlocking the vehicle will interrupt
charging. If no action is taken on
tailgate, the doors or the charging
nozzle, the vehicle will lock again
after 30 seconds and charging will
resume automatically.
Do not work in the engine
compartment. Some areas remain
very hot, even an hour after
charging and the fan may start at
any time.
9 Warning
Make sure that the charging port
flap is closed.
Do not leave the charging cable
connected to the domestic
electrical outlet.
1. Shift into P and switch off the
vehicle.
