domestic socket outlet uses alternating current
to charge the vehicle.
When using the mode 2 charging cable, the effi‐
ciency values may differ from those of the en‐
ergy label.
The mode 2 charging cable is also referred to as
a standard charging cable.
Mode 3 charging cable
Depending on the national-market version, the
vehicle delivery specification includes a Mode 3
charging cable.
The mode 3 charging cable enables fast charg‐
ing at sockets of designated AC charging sta‐
tions through a special connector. Alternating
current is used to charge at designated AC
charging stations. The charging process can be
completed faster than with domestic socket out‐
lets.
A charge current intensity up to 16 A is possible.
The charging cable may be permanently installed
at the charging station.
The mode 3 charging cable is also referred to as
an AC quick charging cable.
Rapid charging cable
The rapid charging cable permanently installed
on the charging station allows charging at DC
charging stations. Direct current is used for
charging at designated DC charging stations.
The DC charging station has a higher rated
power supply and the charging time is usually
considerably shorter compared with a domestic
socket outlet or AC charging station.
When charging at a DC charging station, a note
is shown on the instrument cluster.
The rapid charging cable used to charge the ve‐
hicle must be less than 30 metres in length.
The rapid charging cable is also referred to as a
mode 4 charging cable.
Storage
On delivery, the charging cable is stowed in the
luggage compartment, for example under the
luggage compartment floor or in a bag.
Put the charging cable back in the same place
after use.
If the charging cable is stowed in a bag, secure
the bag to an unused lashing eye in the luggage
compartment.
If necessary, store the charging cable with at‐
tached plug cover to avoid moisture in the charg‐
ing cable plug.
Connecting a charging cable
Charging socket flap
The charging socket flap is located in the rear on
the right side of the vehicle.
Keep the high-voltage charging socket clean and
unobstructed.
Keep the charging socket flap and, if applicable,
the charging socket cover, closed when the
charging socket is not in use.
