Ending charging of a hybrid car
End charging1 by unlocking the car, unplugging the charging cable from the car's charging input socket, and then the charging station.
Unlock the car using the key2. Charging is ended and the charging cable’s locked handle releases/unlocks.
Important
Always stop charging first before unplugging the charging cable from the car's charging input socket and then from the charging station.
Unplug the charging cable from the car's charging input socket and close the hatch.
Unplug the charging cable from the charging station, or plug the permanent charging cable into the charging station’s storage socket.
Important
Always unlock the car so that charging is stopped before you unplug the charging cable. Note that the charging cable must be unplugged from the car's charging input socket before being unplugged from the charging station, 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 automatically locked in again shortly after unlocking. The charging cable can be unplugged again if the car is unlocked using the key. For cars with the keyless locking and unlocking function*, it is possible to lock and unlock using the handle again.
