Ending hybrid battery charging

End charging by unlocking the car1. Disconnect the charging cable from the car's charging input socket, and then from the 230 Vsocket2 (alternating current).

 Important

Before the charging cable is disconnected from the car's charging input socket, the car must be unlocked using the unlock button on the key. This must be carried out even if the doors on the car are already unlocked. If the car is not unlocked using the unlock button, this may lead to damage to the charging cable or to the system.

 Note

Always unlock the car so that charging is stopped before the connection to the 230 V socket (alternating current) is unplugged. Note that the charging cable must be unplugged from the car's charging input socket before being unplugged from the 230 V socket, partly to avoid damage to the system and partly to avoid stopping the charging unintentionally.

The charging cable is locked automatically

If the charging cable is not unplugged from the charging input socket, it is locked in again automatically shortly after unlocking in order to maximise charging and range, as well as to facilitate preconditioning prior to the journey. The charging cable can be unplugged again if the car is unlocked using the key. For cars with Passive Entry*, you can lock and unlock using the handle again.
