High-voltage battery
The charging cable protection device dis-
connects
If electrical devices with a separate electrical
connection, e.g. a cool box, are used in the
vehicle at the same time, the self-test of the
protective device may detect a fault.
●
Please note the order! First connect the
charging cable to the external power supply
and then to the charging socket.
The charging time varies
During the direct current (DC) charging proc-
ess, the charging current is reduced automat-
ically to preventing the high-voltage battery
from overheating.
After several fast charging processes in a row,
the charging time is temporarily extended.
WARNING
High-voltage components, including the bat-
tery and high-voltage cables, may be live and
damaged. The high voltage system voltage is
dangerous and can cause burns, other inju-
ries and fatal electric shocks.
●
Do not touch the high voltage compo-
nents!

rectly ›››page73.
●
The vehicle is unlocked.
●
The charging process has ended or has
paused ›››page72.
●
When charging with alternating current
(AC), the setting Release connector auto-
matically is activated in the infotainment sys-
tem. ›››page35.
The manual release mechanism must be used
if these prerequisites are met and it is still
impossible to unplug the charging connector

Emergency electrical release of the charging
connector
To avoid having to perform a manual emer-
gency release in the luggage compartment,
try releasing the charging connector electroni-
cally using the vehicle’s central locking.
●
Unlock the vehicle three times in a row.
●
Unplug the charging connector.
