Starting Charging - Volvo XC 90 Quick Manual

STARTING CHARGING

The time it takes for the hybrid battery to be charged is dependent on
the charging current that is used. During charging of the car's hybrid
battery, the different indicators on the control unit show the current
status during ongoing charging and after charging is complete.
While the hybrid battery is being charged, charging is also in progress
for the car's starter battery.
1. Connect the charging cable to a 230 VAC socket. Never use an
extension cord.
2. Set the correct charging current (for the 230 VAC socket in use) on
the control unit.
3. Remove the charging handle's protective cover and then connect
the handle to the car. Fit the cover for charging input socket on the
mounting device by the charging hatch, and fit the protective cover
for the charging handle on the cover for the charging input socket.
The charging cable is locked automatically into the charging input
socket and charging starts within 5 seconds.
