Residual-current device
Mode 2 charging cables have a built-in residual current device that protects the vehicle and the user from electric shocks caused by system faults.
The residual-current device helps to protect the vehicle's charging system, but there is no guarantee that an overload will never occur.Warning
The residual-current device does not protect the household outlet.Important
Temperature monitoring
The mode 2 cable is also equipped with a control unit, which has a built-in overtemperature monitoring function. This monitors the temperature of the charging cable.
Avoid exposing the control unit and its plug connector to direct sunlight. The overheating protection in the plug connector may otherwise reduce or stop your vehicle's charging.Important
