Setting the maximum permissible charging current for charging at a mains socket
NOTE Danger due to excessive charging current
If the charging current is too high, the fuse could be tripped or the external mains supply could overheat.
Check that the external mains supply has been designed to handle the set charging current.
If necessary, reduce the set charging current or use a different mains socket.
Before charging the high-voltage battery at a mains socket, check the maximum permissible charging current for the relevant mains socket or the building. The charging cable supplied is set to a country-specific maximum charging current value. When charging abroad, the maximum value may exceed the permitted value for that country. When abroad, observe the country-specific laws when charging.
If you have questions concerning setting the charging current or if there is a malfunction, please contact a qualified specialist workshop.
You can set the maximum permissible charging current as follows:
in the multimedia system menu
The smaller value of the two charging current settings in the multimedia system determines the maximum charging current. If the exact value of the maximum permissible charging current cannot be set, select the next smaller adjustable value.
If the vehicle requires more time than usual when charging the high-voltage battery, check the maximum charging current settings using the controls on the charging cable or in the menu of the multimedia system.
