Current limit
General information
The current limit for charging with the Mode 2
charging cable and the Mode 3 charging cable
can be set via iDrive.
When charging at domestic sockets on another
power grid, the set charging current again
may need to be checked again. The permitted
charge current strength must be determined,
for instance by a qualified electrician, before
charging with a domestic socket outlet.
If the approved charging current strength is un-
known, set the current limit to the lowest level.
