Notes on charging the high-voltage battery at a
wallbox or charging station (mode 3)
& DANGER Risk of fatal injury from incor-
rectly installed component parts
Connecting the charging cable to a wallbox
using incorrectly installed component parts
could cause a fire or an electric shock, for
example.
Only connect the charging cable to a
#
wallbox that:
Has been properly installed and
R
Has been inspected by a qualified electri-
R
cian
For safety reasons, only use charging
#
cables that have been tested and
approved by the manufacturer for charg-
ing the high-voltage battery in an electric
vehicle.
Never use damaged charging cables.
#
Do not extend the charging cable.
#
Do not use adapters.
#
Observe the safety notes in the operat-
#
ing instructions for the wallbox.
If charging at a wallbox without pre-installed
cable, use the optionally available charging cable
for wallbox and charging station (mode 3). The
charging cable is stowed in a bag in the boot/
luggage compartment.
Only use charging cables that have been tested
and approved by the manufacturer for charging
the high-voltage battery in an electric vehicle.
& DANGER Risk of fatal injuries due to dam-
aged components
If you use a damaged component to connect
the vehicle to the charging station, this can
result in fire or an electric shock, for example.
Perform a visual inspection of the charg-
#
ing station for obvious defects, e.g. dam-
age to the housing or on the charging
cable connection.
At charging stations without a pre-instal-
#
led cable, for safety reasons, only use
charging cables that have been tested
Driving and parking 199
and approved by the manufacturer for
charging the high-voltage battery in an
electric vehicle.
Do not use a damaged charging cable.
#
Do not use an extension for the charging
#
cable.
Do not use an adapter.
#
Always observe the safety information on
#
the charging station.
Most charging stations must be activated before
the charging process, e.g. using an RFID card.
Observe the on-site operator's instructions for the
charging station.
The amount of energy dispensed for the charging
process, shown by the charging station, may be
higher than the amount of energy actually absor-
bed by the high-voltage battery. This is the result
of different levels of charging losses and is descri-
bed as recharge efficiency. Charging losses occur,
for example, due to heat that builds up when the
vehicle is charging or from auxiliary consumers
that are switched on. Further information on
