4 -1 Charging and discharging descriptions
● During charging, it’s recommended to park the vehicle in a ventilated place and
ask all personnel to get off the vehicle.
● During charging, the estimated remaining charging time is displayed on the
combination instrument. Under different temperature, power level, and charging
facility conditions, the remaining charging time probably differs by a certain degree,
which is a normal symptom.
● At completion of charging, the display of “Calculating” or “Balancing” on the
instrument is a normal symptom.
■ When the power battery is fully charged, the charging system will automatically stop the
charging.
■ To stop the DC charging, turn off the charging pile and then disconnect the charging
adapter. While charging by household portable AC charger, disconnect the vehicle end
charger and then disconnect the power supply plug.
■ After the charging is completed and the charger is disconnected, ensure that the
charging coupler protective flap and the charging coupler cap are under closed status,
otherwise the possible ingress of water or foreign materials into the charging coupler
will impair the normal use.
■ Before starting the vehicle, ensure that the charging equipment are already
disconnected. If the charging equipment locking mechanism is not completely locked,
the vehicle can drive in drive gear, which will result in damages of charging equipment
and vehicle.
■ If the vehicle is not in use for a long time, it’s recommended to charge once every 3
months, in order to prolong the life of power battery.
■ If the charging coupler cap is frozen due to weather reason, it’s recommended to melt
the ice by hot water and then open the charging coupler cap. Do not open it by force.
■ If the battery temperature is too high or too low, the charging time of vehicle will be
prolonged to a certain degree. Under extreme environments, it will result in charging
failure.
● In low temperature northern regions, it’s recommended to charge the vehicle in an
indoor place with heating supply.
● During low-temperature charging, the temperature control system (If fitted) can
improve the low-temperature charging capacity of battery and promote the
charging performance of vehicle.
● During the DC charging under the low-temperature high battery level status, the
charging current is low based on the low-temperature characteristic of battery.
Therefore, to increase the charging speed, it’s recommended to charge your
vehicle at low battery level in low-temperature environments.
● During the low-temperature AC charging, to increase the charging capacity, the
temperature control system (If fitted) will start for working so that the heating power
consumption will increased compared with that with DC charging method and
meanwhile the charging time will be longer, which is a normal charging symptom in
low-temperature environments.
● To improve the vehicle operation experience, it’s recommended to immediately
