Charging the hybrid battery
In addition to the conventional fuel tank, Twin
Engine Plug-in Hybrid vehicles are also equip-
ped with a rechargeable lithium-ion hybrid bat-
tery.
The hybrid battery is recharged using a charging
cable located in a storage compartment under
the floor of the cargo compartment. See also the
article "Charging cable."
WARNING
The hybrid electrical system in your vehicle
uses high voltage electrical current. Any dam-
age to this system or to the hybrid battery
may result in the danger of overheating, fire,
or serious injury. If the vehicle is involved in a
collision or is subjected to flooding, fires, etc.,
have it inspected by a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician. Prior to this inspec-
tion, the vehicle should be parked outdoors at
a safe distance from any building or poten-
tially flammable materials.
The hybrid battery's charging time depends on
the charging current used.
