If the vehicle is idle for lengthy periods and
connected to the mains supply, the high-volt-
age battery will be recharged automatically as
needed or when electrical consumers are
activated (e.g. the pre-entry climate control).
%
The vehicle is equipped with an electrical fuse
which protects it against overvoltage in the
mains supply. This electrical fuse may trip dur-
ing severe thunderstorms, for example, and
may cause the fuse in the building to trip or
may interrupt the charging process. These
functions protect the vehicle.
A er the fuse in the building is switched on
again, the charging process resumes automat-
ically. Following an interruption in the power
supply without the fuse in the building being
tripped, it may take up to ten minutes for
charging to resume automatically.
