Ground fault breaker in the
charging cable
The control unit for the charging cable charging
cable has a built-in ground fault breaker that pro-
tects the car and the user from electric shocks
caused by system faults.
If the control module's built-in ground fault
breaker is tripped then the car symbol illuminates
with red constant glow - check the 230 V socket
(alternating current).
WARNING
Charging the hybrid battery must only take
place with grounded and approved 230 V
sockets (alternating current). If the capacity
for the socket or fuse circuit is unknown, ask
a licensed electrician to check the capacity.
Charging above the capacity of a fuse circuit
may lead to fire or damage the fuse circuit.
WARNING
•
The charging cable's overvoltage protec-
tion helps to protect the car's charging
system, but cannot guarantee that over-
load will never occur.
•
Never use visibly worn or damaged elec-
trical sockets. This could cause fire or
serious injury.
•
Never connect the charging cable to a
cable extension.
•
Maintenance or replacement of the hybrid
battery must only be performed by a
trained and qualified Volvo service techni-
cian.
IMPORTANT
The ground fault breaker does not protect the
230 V socket (alternating current)/electrical
installation.
