Seat Tarraco 2022 Owner's Manual page 74

Check that the driving mode is deactivated and
that the charging cable and infrastructure are
in perfect condition.
Types of charging
The following charging types are possible for
the vehicle:
●
Charging with alternating current (AC) at
a public or home charging station (Mode 3
›››
charging) page 73:
Charges at high power. The maximum achieva-
ble charging power depends on the charging
station and charging cable that is used and the
performance of the vehicle's charger.
●
Charging with alternating current (AC)
at a household socket (Mode 2 charging)
›››
page 73:
The electrical installation of the house must
have been checked and be in perfect working
›››
order . You must plan for a longer charg-
ing time, e.g. overnight.
●
Charging with direct current (DC) at a fast
charging station (Mode 4 charging):
Direct current charging is not compatible with
this vehicle.
Protection against current leakage
The vehicle is fitted with a direct current (DC)
leakage protection device. This prevents any
current leakage that may occur during charg-
ing from reaching the house's electrically in-
stallation through the charging cable.

High-voltage battery
WARNING
If the battery is charged in an inappropri-
ate manner, if no consideration is given to
the appropriate safety measures or the high-
voltage battery is used in an inadequate
manner, this could lead to short circuits,
electrical shocks, explosions, fires, burns and
serious injuries, even death.
●
Always respect the stipulated order of the
operations to avoid the risk of suffering an
electric shock or serious injuries due to the
residual energy in the charging accumulator.
●
Please observe the safety and handling
instructions of the charging cable supplied
›››
page 78
with the vehicle .
●
When charging, only use power sockets
that are appropriately fitted, have been
checked and are not damaged, as well as
electrical installations that are in perfect
working order. Duly qualified technicians
should check the power sockets and the
electrical installation on a regular basis.
●
Never charge the vehicle in places where
there is a danger of explosion. The com-
ponents of the charging cable can cause
sparks and, therefore, may ignite flammable
fumes or explosives.
●
Always protect the connectors from mois-
ture and from water and other fluids getting
inside directly.
●
For safety reasons, never perform other
works on the vehicle while charging.
●
Always complete the charging process be-
fore unplugging the connector from the elec-
trical network. Otherwise the charging cable
and the electrical installation may also be
damaged.
Note
● To charge the high-voltage battery using
alternating current (AC), SEAT recommends
using a home charging station or another
type of charging station and charging with
maximum charging power. These charging
options are more efficient than using a do-
mestic power socket.
● Please note the technical data on your ve-
hicle's charging power. For more information,
please contact a SEAT dealer.
● The high-voltage battery can only be
charged at charging stations that meet the
requirements of the country in questions and
at least one of the following standards:
– IEC 61851 and IEC 62196 (Europe)
● In the event of very low or very high tem-
peratures, it may only be possible to charge
the high-voltage battery in a limited manner.
