Ending the direct current charging process (mode 4)
DANGER Risk of death when charging at a damaged socket

The charging process uses high voltage.

If the charging cable, the vehicle socket or the mains socket are damaged, you could receive an electric shock.

Only use an undamaged charging cable.
Avoid mechanical damage such as crushing, abrading or driving over the cable.
Have a damaged vehicle socket replaced at a qualified specialist workshop as soon as possible.
Never connect the charging cable to a damaged vehicle socket.
NOTE Damage to the vehicle due to overvoltage in the mains supply

The vehicle is equipped with an electrical fuse which protects it against overvoltage in the mains supply. This electrical fuse may trip during 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.

After the fuse in the building is switched on again, the charging process resumes automatically.

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.

NOTE Damage due to overheating of charging cable and charging cable connector

During the charging process, the charging cable and charging cable connector can heat up within their permissible limit values.

The permissible limit values are influenced by the following factors:

  • the power supply system and the charging cable are not damaged

  • the instructions for handling the charging cable and the control element on the charging cable have been observed

If the charging cable or charging cable connector becomes too hot, have the power supply system checked.
NOTE Damaged or dirty vehicle socket when the socket flap is open
Always keep the socket cover and the socket flap closed when there is no charging cable connected. This protects the vehicle socket from dirt and damage.
Make sure that the socket cover is closed properly before closing the socket flap. This can otherwise result in damage which may prevent the socket flap from being opened again.
Requirements:

  • The distance between the key and the vehicle does not exceed 1 m.

Depending on the national version, the vehicle is equipped with one of the following vehicle sockets.

Combo 1 vehicle socket
Press "cancel charging" button .

The charging process is ended. The indicator lamp lights up white. The vehicle socket is unlocked.

Press and hold button on the charging cable connector and remove the charging cable connector from the vehicle socket.

If you cannot remove the charging cable connector, unlock the vehicle and repeat the procedure. If the charging cable connector is still locked, contact a qualified specialist workshop.

Close the socket cover and the socket flap.
Remove the charging cable connector from the mains socket, or from the socket on the wallbox/charging station, and stow the vehicle charging cable safely in the vehicle.
Combo 2 vehicle socket
Press "cancel charging" button .

The charging process is ended. The indicator lamp lights up white. The vehicle socket is unlocked.

If you cannot remove the charging cable connector, unlock the vehicle and repeat the procedure. If the charging cable connector is still locked, contact a qualified specialist workshop.

Close the socket cover and the socket flap.
Remove the charging cable connector from the mains socket, or from the socket on the wallbox/charging station, and stow the vehicle's charging cable safely in the vehicle.

After the charging cable connector has been disconnected, the left indicator lamp on the vehicle socket remains lit for some time before switching off.
