ELECTRIC MOTOR AND CHARGING
||
WARNING
The charging cable must be grounded
•
when in use. It is equipped with a cord
with a grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. The plug must be
inserted into an appropriate outlet that
is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and
ordinances and is not damaged in any
way.
Children should be supervised when in
•
the vicinity of the charging cable when
it is plugged in.
High voltage is present in your electric
•
meter housing and power distribution
service panel. Contact with high volt-
age can cause death or serious per-
sonal injury.
Do not use the charging cable if it is
•
damaged in any way. A damaged or
malfunctioning charging cable may
only be repaired by a workshop – an
authorized Volvo workshop is recom-
mended.
Always position the charging cable so
•
that it will not be driven over, stepped
on, tripped over or otherwise damaged,
or cause personal injury.
Disconnect the charger from the wall
•
outlet before cleaning it.
398
Never connect the charging cable to an
•
extension cord or a multiple plug
socket.
Do not use one or more adapters
•
between the charging cable and the
electric outlet.
Do not use an external timer between
•
the charging cable and the electrical
outlet.
Also, refer to the manufacturer's instruc-
tions for using the charging cable and its
components.
CAUTION
Make sure that the 120/240 V outlet (AC,
alternating current) has a power capacity
sufficient for charging electric vehicles. If
you are uncertain of the capacity, have the
outlet checked by a licensed electrician.
Note that the engine must be turned off
before beginning charging.
Take out the charging cable from the storage
compartment under the cargo area.
Plug the charging cable into a 120/240 V
outlet. Never use an extension cord.
Open the charger door. Push the charging
handle all the way into the vehicle's
socket.
