High-voltage system
Charging at household and industrial sockets
or at public charging stations with
alternating current (AC)
The vehicle's high-voltage battery can be charged
with alternating current (AC) via the charging
port (5). Depending on the vehicle equipment,
there may be a second charging port ©) on the
opposite side of the vehicle. Both charging ports
have the same charging power. You can use
whichever charging port is more convenient for
your charging setup. When using one charging
port, the opposite charging port is locked.
Quick charging at public direct current (DC)
charging stations
The vehicle’s high-voltage battery can be charged
at a direct current (DC) charging station via the
charging port on the driver's side (). There is a
significant decrease in charging time. The charg-
ing cable being used may be a maximum of 30 m.
Charging time
The duration of the charging process may vary
based on the following factors:
— Sockets being used (household or industrial
sockets)
— Country-specific system voltage, current
strength and number of available phases
— Household connection
— The value set for the charging power level on
the Audi charging system control unit
— Fluctuations in the system voltage
— The temperature outside the vehicle
— The temperature of the high-voltage battery
and the Audi charging system control unit.
— Settings for the climate control inside the vehi-
cle
— Current capacity of the charging connector
— Whether the ignition is on or off
ec e laa eed
ZA\ WARNING
Short circuiting, electric shock, explosions,
fire and severe burns can result from not
charging the battery correctly (for example,
disregarding general safety precautions, using
unsuitable or damaged sockets and charging
cables, and charging at an unsuitable electri-
cal equipment) and can lead to serious and fa-
tal injuries.
— Only charge at sockets that are installed cor-
rectly, that are tested and that are not dam-
aged, or at electrical equipment that is func-
tioning correctly.
— Never use damaged and/or dirty charging
equipment. Check the charging equipment
for damage before every use.
— Never modify or repair any electrical compo-
nents, especially the high-voltage system.
— Never charge in areas at risk for explosions.
The components in the charging equipment
can trigger sparks, which can cause flamma-
ble or explosive fumes to ignite. To reduce
the risk of explosions, especially in garages,
make sure the Audi e-tron charging system
control unit is at least 19 inches (50 cm)
above the floor when charging.
— Never use the charging equipment with an
extension cord, a cable reel, a power strip,
or an adapter, for example, a travel adapter
or timer.
— Do not touch the contacts on the vehicle
charging port or charging equipment.
— Do not insert any objects in the vehicle
charging port or in the charging equipment.
— Always protect the sockets and connections
from water, moisture and other fluids.
— Never charge with both vehicle charging
ports at the same time.
— Only use the charging equipment provided
by the factory or the charging station cable.
Z\ WARNING
Applies to: Audi charging systems
Sockets that are installed incorrectly can
cause electric shock or fire when charging the
high-voltage battery using the vehicle charg-
ing connection.
— Read all information and safety precautions
for Audi charging systems before using
them.
— Monitor the Audi charging system if it is be-
ing used near children.
