If the charging cable or charging cable connec-
tor become too hot, have the mains power sup-
ply checked.
Protection device against overvoltage
!Overvoltage in the mains supply may dam-
age the vehicle. For this reason, the vehicle is equipped with a protection device against
overvoltage in the mains supply. This device
may be triggered during severe thunder-
storms, for example, and may lead to the buil-
ding's fuse being tripped and an interruption
in the power supply. These functions protect
the vehicle. After the building fuse is switched
on again, the charging process resumes auto-
matically. Following an interruption in the
power supply or tripping of the building's fuse,
it may take up to 10 minutes for charging to
resume automatically.
Switch on the building protection system again
after it has been triggered. Otherwise, the
charging process cannot be continued.
General information about the charging
procedure
Pay attention to the "Important safety notes"
(Ypage 169).
The vehicle socket is located in the rear bumper
on the right below the tail lamp.
The charge socket flap and the vehicle are cen-
trally locked or unlocked simultaneously.

Important safety notes
!Only use the charging cable to charge the
high-voltage battery. Do not use the charging
cable for other purposes. It may otherwise be
damaged.
The vehicle is supplied with a country-specific
charging cable for connection to a mains socket.
Only use the charging cable supplied with the
vehicle or a charging cable approved for the
vehicle.
iIf you use the supplied 12 A charging cable
to charge a high-voltage battery:
Rthe charge time increases considerably
Relectrical consumption increases consider-
ably
Where possible, charge the high-voltage bat-
tery at a charging station (
Ypage 175). Only
then can certified electrical energy consump-
tion levels be reached.
iThe charging process can vary depending on
the power supply. Therefore, always observe
the local information.
