(for versions/markets, where provided)  
If the charging cable does not unlock at  
the end of the charging procedure, you  
can unlock it manually.  
WARNING  
76) Using "Fast Charge - Mode 4" can  
accelerate the battery degradation  
process.  
77) If fast charging is not required,  
standard (AC) charging is always  
preferred. This maximises battery life by  
ensuring the best performance of the car  
over time.  
78) The charging times in "Fast Charge -  
Mode 4" are referred to up to 80% of the  
state of charge of the high-voltage battery  
in standard environmental conditions  
(25°C).  
79) Charging times in extreme weather  
conditions can increase by as much as  
several minutes due to the intervention  
of the high-voltage battery management  
system, which ensures optimal regulation  
of the battery temperature to prevent  
possible damage.  
80) The charging speed slows down when  
the state of charge of the high-voltage  
battery exceeds 80%.  
81) The battery charging time can increase  
by a few minutes in case of very cold/hot  
outside temperatures, many quick  
charging sessions, high frequency of use  
of "Fast Charge - Mode 4" charging or  
ageing of the battery. This reduction in

having pressed the button near the  
charging port, it is still not possible to  
remove the charge cable from the  
socket on the car, it is possible to  
act manually by operating a special  
emergency unlocking device located  
on the right side of the boot and  
performing the operations described  
below:  
CHARGING SCHEDULE  
Two charging modes are available:  
immediate and scheduled.  
The two charging modes can be  
selected in two ways:  
via the dedicated smartphone app  
(refer to the chapter "Connected  
Services - Uconnect Services" in the  
"Multimedia" section) (where provided)  
by means of the Uconnect™  
system.  
acting inside the boot, remove the  
cap (A) fig. 214;  
pull the release cord (B) fig. 214  
(where provided) to manually unlock  
the actuator of the charging port;  
disconnect the charging cable;  
check that the release cord (where  
provided) is correctly repositioned  
inside its housing, then reinsert the cap  
(A) fig. 214.  
The page available on the Uconnect™  
system can be used to set charging  
times when the car will be charged  
via Mode 2 or Mode 3. By acting on  
the Uconnect™ system display and  
selecting the "Charging schedule"  
function on the screen under the  
206  
sections. Charging will start at the  
selected time.  
"Vehicle" page (fig. 215) you can set  
the start and end time at which the  
high-voltage battery is to be charged.  
The end time of each charging interval  
can be set as "charge to completion",  
in which case the end time will be  
deselected. For more information,  
see "Settings" in the "Vehicle mode"  
paragraph in the "Multimedia" section).  
NOTE DC recharging (Mode 4) does  
not include hourly programming.  
While the system is waiting for the  
charging interval, the LED lights up (A)  
fig. 216 (located next to the charging  
port) and the LEDs (B) will illuminate in  
a blue light sequence.

When charging is in progress  
according to a programmed time, LED  
(A) fig. 216 and LEDs (B) will light up  
green flashing/fixed depending on the  
state of charge of the battery portion  
indicated by the LED. The fixed green  
light indicates that the battery portion is  
fully charged.

To perform scheduled charging with  
"charge to completion" option, the

CHARGING  
When the charging cable is inserted  
and there are no charging schedules  
selected, the cable will be locked and  
the immediate charging procedure will  
begin. LED (B) fig. 217 and LEDs (B)  
fig. 216 will light up green flashing/fixed  
depending on the state of charge of the  
battery portion indicated by the LED.  
The fixed green light indicates that the  
battery portion is fully charged.  
You can move on to the next  
After programming and selecting the  
desired charging intervals (up to a  
maximum of three), plug in the charging  
cable, following the charging procedure  
indicated in the "Alternating current  
(AC) charging at home", "Fast home  
charging procedure from wallbox  
charging station", "Charging procedure  
from public charging station (AC)"  
scheduled charging interval while an  
immediate charging operation is in  
progress by unlocking the ports and  
pressing button (A) fig. 217 on the port.  
WARNING the button (A) fig. 217 on  
the port remains active for 1 minute  
after the doors are locked.

located next to the charging port will  
light up flashing red.  
To switch to immediate charging mode  
during scheduled charging:  
DISCONNECTING THE  
CHARGING CABLE  
The charging cable is locked during  
charging or when the doors are locked.  
To disconnect the charging cable,  
interrupt the charging in progress (see  
the "Interrupting charging" paragraph).  
If no charging is in progress, first  
unlock the doors using the button  
on the key and then disconnect the  
charging cable.  
if charging is in progress, interrupt  
the scheduled charging first (see  
chapter "Interrupting charging");  
activate immediate recharging by  
pressing the button again (A) fig. 217  
on the port.  
Interrupting charging  
The charging cable is blocked when  
charging is in progress. To interrupt the  
charging process, unlock the doors  
with the key and press the button (A)  
fig. 217 on the port. The charging  
process will be interrupted and you can  
disconnect the charging cable. When  
immediate recharging is interrupted  
and there is no charging scheduled  
(see the "Charging schedule" chapter),  
the LEDs (B) fig. 216 will light up with a  
steady green light showing the current  
battery charge level; if there are any  
upcoming charging schedules, the  
LEDs (B) fig. 216 will glow blue light  
and the LED will light up (A) fig. 216.  
If a charging interval is interrupted, the  
same interval can only be resumed by  
disconnecting and reconnecting the  
charging cable, otherwise charging will  
continue with subsequent schedule.

COMPLETION OF  
CHARGE  
"eCoasting" mode  
(ENERGY SAVING)  
The full charging procedure, if not  
interrupted, ends when all LEDs (A)  
fig. 218 they light up with a steady  
green light.  
This is a mode that replaces the  
exhaust brake when the accelerator  
pedal is released, recovers energy  
during the slowing down phase of the  
car.  
The "eCoasting" mode is automatically  
activated in "NORMAL" operating  
mode to maximise energy recovery  
when the accelerator and brake pedals  
are released.  
Driving in "eCoasting" mode is possible  
if the transmission is in position "D"  
(Drive).
