High-voltage batteryDriving and parking
Stowing the charging cable
The charging cable can be stowed in a bag in the
boot of the vehicle. To do so, the bag must be
secured to the lashing eyelets using the retain-
ing strap provided.

connection is working prop-
erly. The high-voltage battery
can be charged.
Flashes red A fault has been detected in
the external mains supply.
The high-voltage battery is
recharged as soon as the
electricity signal registers
normal values.
Lights up red There is a malfunction. The
charging cable must be
removed from the mains
socket and then re-inserted.

Lights up red There is a malfunction. The
high-voltage battery cannot

charging process, see (Y
page 144).
Setting the maximum charge current G
WARNING
If the charge current draw via a mains socket is too high during the charging process, the
external mains supply may overheat. There isa risk of fire.
Before charging, check the maximum permis-
sible charge current available at the location.
If necessary, contact a qualified specialist
company for assistance.
Adjust your vehicle's settings, if necessary.
! If the charge current is too high, the fuse
could be tripped or the external mains supply could overheat. Check if the external mains
supply is equipped to handle the programmed charge current. If necessary, reduce the pro-
grammed charge current or use a different
mains socket.
You can set a limit for the values of the charge
current used in charging the high-voltage bat-
tery. This acts as a means of preventing the
mains supply from overloading. You can set this
limit by using the controls on the charging cable
or in the on-board computer's menu. Only set
the maximum charge current in the on-board
computer menu if there are no charge current
settings on the charging cable.
The default standard value is the minimum
charge current setting. This corresponds to the
minimum available charge current from the
mains supply.
i The value of the maximum setting and the
relevant adjustment values may vary depend-
ing on the country.
Before charging the high-voltage battery, have
the maximum permissible charge current for the relevant power socket checked by an electri-
cian.
X To adjust the setting: press button?
repeatedly until the desired setting is selec-
ted in display =.
R Two LEDs are flashing: minimum setting
