Charging current
Charging current is used for charging the hybrid
battery as well as preconditioning of the car. The
charging cable between the car's charging input
socket and a 230 VAC socket
11
can be set for
different current intensity loads (6-16 A) using
the control unit.
When the charging cable is activated, the driver
display shows a message and a lamp is illumi-
nated in the car's charging input socket (see sec-
tion "Charge status"). The charging current is
mainly used for battery charging, but is also used
for preconditioning the car. When the car's hybrid
battery is charged, the starter battery is also
charged.
IMPORTANT
Never unplug the charging cable from the
230 VAC socket while charging is in progress
- there is then a risk of damaging the
230 VAC socket.
Always stop charging first before unplugging
the charging cable from the car's charging
input socket and then from the 230 VAC
socket.
Charging time varies with the amperage setting
on the control unit. The following charging times
apply to optimal charging, i.e. when no climate
control function or other load is affecting charg-
ing. If charging time seems long, it should be
investigated.
Current intensity (A)
A Charging time (hours)
6 6
10 3.5
16 2,5
A Maximum charging current may vary depending on market.
NOTE
•
If the weather is very hot or very cold,
some of the charging current is used to
heat/cool the hybrid battery and the pas-
senger compartment, which results in a
longer charging time.
•
The charging time is extended if precon-
ditioning has been selected. The time
required depends mainly on the outside
temperature.
Charging cable plug and charging input socket.
Normally several 230 VAC consumers are
included in a fuse circuit, so additional consum-
ers (e.g. lighting, vacuum cleaner, electric drill,
etc.) can be on the same fuse.
Example 1
If the car is connected to a 230 VAC/10 A
socket and the control unit is set at 16 A, then
the car will attempt to draw 16 A from the
230 VAC mains power circuit - after a while the
overloaded 10 A fuse for the socket will be trip-
ped and battery charging stopped.
In which case, reset the fuse for the socket and
select a lower charging current on the control
unit, see section "Preparation for charging the
hybrid battery".
11 The voltage in the socket may vary depending on market.
