Maximum charging level
8
: Normally, if you
use the vehicle regularly, it is not necessary
to fully charge the high-voltage battery. The
maximum charging level limits the battery's

Advanced options
●
Reducing the alternating current (AC) charg-
ing power: This reduces the charging current
to between 6 and 8 amps to avoid overloading
the household power network.
●
Unlocking the alternating current (AC) cable:
Once the charging process is complete, the
connector is automatically unlocked.
