ELECTRIC OPERATION AND CHARGING
* Option/accessory.
428
Charging with fixed control unit in
accordance with mode 3
2
In certain markets the control unit is installed
within a charging station connected to the
mains power circuit. In which case, the charg-
ing cable has no control unit of its own. There-
fore, use the charging station's charging cable
and follow the instructions at the charging sta-
tion.
Energy recovery during braking
Indication in driver display during energy recovery.
Energy is regenerated to the battery during
light pressure on the brake pedal or during
engine braking.
The function is available in all drive modes
together with gear position D or B.

Charging current
Charging current is used for charging the
hybrid battery as well as preconditioning of
the car. Charging takes place with a charging
cable connected to the car's charging input
socket and a 230 V socket
3
(alternating cur-
rent).
When the charging cable is activated, the
driver display shows a message and a lamp in
the car's charging input socket illuminates.
The charging current is mainly used for battery
charging, but is also used for preconditioning
the car. When the car's hybrid battery is
charged, the starter battery is also charged.
IMPORTANT
Never unplug the charging cable from the
230 V socket (alternating current) while
charging is in progress - there is then a risk
of damaging the 230 V socket. Always
stop charging first before unplugging the
charging cable from the car's charging
input socket and then from the 230 V
socket.

The voltage in the socket may vary depending on market.
