remedied by a workshop.
CHARGING TYPES
There are different types of charging the
vehicle's high voltage battery.
Charging at wallboxes
A wallbox is a charging unit for private
households. It provides a charging cable
which has to be connected to the
vehicle's charging port. Some wallboxes
do not provide a charging cable. In
this case, a separate charging cable is
required which has to be connected to
both the wallbox and the charging port of
the vehicle.
Charging time may take approx. five
hours with a charging power of 11kW
or seven and half hours with a charging
power of 7.4kW.
Charging at charging stations
Charging stations may provide
alternating current (AC) or direct current
(DC). Charging time may vary depending
on the charging station, DC charging
stations provide the fastest charging. To
charge the vehicle's battery, the charging
cable of the charging station has to be
connected to the charging port of the
vehicle.
● AC charging station: Charging time
may take approx. five hours with a
charging power of 11kW or seven and
half hours with a charging power of
7.4kW.
●
DC charging station: Up to approx.
80% of battery capacity may be
charged in approx. 30 minutes at a
charging power of 100kW.
Charging at domestic electrical
outlets
The vehicle's high voltage battery can
be charged at a domestic electrical
outlet. Connect the charging cable to
the vehicle's charging port and to the
domestic electrical outlet.
Charging time may take approx. 30 hours
with a charging power of 1.8kW.
CHARGING CABLE
Depending on the charging type, different
charging cables are used.
