Charging cable
What you should be mindful of
We recommend that you only use charging cables
supplied by ŠKODA AUTO. With these, the reliability
as well as correct functionality are guaranteed.
WARNING
Risk of short circuit as well as serious or fatal injuries!
▶
Only use a suitable charging cable to charge the
high-voltage battery.
NOTICE
▶
Have the charging cable checked regularly by a
qualified service technician.
Information on the use of the charging cable
▶
Protect the parts of the charging cable from un-
wanted stress, e.g. from overrunning, falling, pull-
ing, kinking or bending over sharp edges.
▶
When disconnecting from the socket or charger,
do not pull on the cable but only on the plug.
▶
After using the charging cable, insert the protec-
tive caps.
▶
Protect the parts of the charging cable from in-
tense sunlight (the outside temperature must not
exceed 50 °C).
▶
Do not immerse parts of the charging cable in wa-
ter and ensure it is protected from snow or ice.
▶
Before charging at cold temperatures, attach the
supplied protective ring to the charging plug. This
protects the plug-charging socket connection
from freezing.
Before driving abroad
Check whether your charging cable is suitable for
the specific procedures in places in each country.
In Norway, for example, the construction of elec-
trical systems is based on different technical specifi-
cations than those in other European countries.
Charging cable type
▶
Charging cable for charging stations (Mode 3).
▶
Charging cable for standard power outlets (Mode
2).
Charging cable for charging stations (Mode 3)
The charging cable can
be used to charge vehi-
cles at public charging
stations that do not have
an integrated charging
cable.
The vehicle can be
charged with a maximum
charging current of 16 A.
At some charging stations that offer charging with a
charging current of 32 A, charging with a cable in-
tended for charging with a charging current of 16 A
is not possible.
Charging cable for standard power outlets (Mode
2)
The charging cable can be used for charging at
standard power outlets.
Cable control box Mode 2
Through the control box, the charging plug is de-
energised until it is plugged into the charging socket
of the vehicle.
When the charging cable is connected to the power
outlet, the control box automatically carries out a
self-test. All warning and indicator lights illuminate
briefly and go out one after the other.
The current operating status is then displayed.

Temperature monitoring
The charging cable is equipped with a temperature
monitoring system on the control box and the mains
plug.
The temperature monitoring system is triggered if
the charging cable heats up too much. It may also do
so if you have taken it with you beforehand in an
overheated luggage compartment or in strong sun-
light.
