if no scheduled charging has been
set (see the "Charging functions"
chapter), charging starts automatically;
check by turning on the LEDs on the
cable control unit that there are no
faults in the charging system (for more
information see "charge status control
unit" chapter in the "Power sources
that can be used - Mode 2 cable"
section). If there are no anomalies,
the green LEDs located next to the
charging port will light up momentarily.
In case of anomalies, refer to the
description in the "Charging system
failure" chapter in the "Power sources
that can be used - Mode 2 cable"
section.
NOTE The charging procedure is
interrupted when opening the bonnet:
a dedicated message will be shown
on the instrument panel display. The
charge will be reactivated when the
bonnet is closed correctly.
The time required for charging the high-
voltage battery depends on several
factors.
If the passenger compartment
preconditioning is activated, the battery
charging time will be extended. The
time required for heating/cooling the
car is mainly determined by the outside
temperature.
WARNING The maximum power
consumption of the charging port
depends on the type of contract signed
by the user, the type of cable used and
the charge level set in the Uconnect™
system menu.
WARNING Only use charging
cables supplied with your car, or a
replacement cable recommended by
FCA.
WARNING The high-voltage battery
must be charged in accordance with
the maximum amperage rating allowed
by local and national recommendations
for charging electric vehicles.
END OF CHARGING
PROCEDURE
The charging procedure ends when all
the LEDs (A) fig. 168, located next to

green (during the charging phase, on
the other hand, the LEDs will light up
flashing/fixed green according to the
state of charge of the battery portion
indicated by the LED. The fixed green
light indicates that the battery portion is
fully charged).
