196 High-voltage system › Charging of high-voltage battery

NOTICE

Overview

When fast charging with direct current (DC), the charging proc-

ess is carried out using a very high charging current. Frequent

rapid charging (DC) can permanently reduce the charging ca-

pacity of the high-voltage battery.

C

NOTICE

Long periods with the vehicle left standing with a fully charged

high-voltage battery for several months can lead to a permanent

reduction in the charging capacity of the high-voltage battery.

Avoid prolonged vehicle downtimes when the high-voltage

battery is at a high state of charge.

▶

The charging process indicator also helps in illuminating the

charging socket.

At very low and very high temperatures, there may be re-

strictions when charging the high-voltage battery. The charging

time may be longer.

Charging indicator

As the state of charge of the high-voltage battery increases,

the ability of the high-voltage battery to absorb energy decrea-

ses. This slows down the charging process.
