ELECTRIC OPERATION AND CHARGING
434
WARNING
•
The hybrid battery must only be
charged at maximum permitted charg-
ing current or lower in accordance with
applicable local and national recom-
mendations for hybrid charging from
230 V sockets (alternating current)/
plugs.
•
Charging the hybrid battery must only
take place from an approved grounded
230 V socket
6
or from a charging sta-
tion with a loose charging cable (Mode
3) supplied by Volvo.
•
The control unit's ground fault breaker
protects the car, but there may still be
a risk of overloading the 230 V mains
power circuit.
•
Avoid visible worn or damaged mains
sockets since they may lead to fire
damage and/or personal injury if used.
•
Never use an extension cable.
•
Never use an adapter or external timer.
WARNING
•
The charging cable has a built-in circuit
breaker. Charging must only take place
with grounded and approved sockets.
•
Children should be supervised when in
the vicinity of the charging cable when
it is plugged in.
•
High voltage in the charging cable.
Contact with high voltage can cause
death or serious personal injury.
•
Do not use the charging cable if it is
damaged in any way. A damaged or
inoperative charging cable must only
be repaired by a workshop - an author-
ised Volvo workshop is recommended.
•
Always position the charging cable so
that it will not be driven over, stepped
on, tripped over or damaged in some
other way, or cause personal injury.
•
Disconnect the charger from the wall
outlet before cleaning it.
•
Never connect the charging cable to an
extension cord or a multiple plug
socket.
•
Do not use one or more adapters
between the charging cable and the
electrical socket.
•
Do not use an external timer between
the charging cable and the electrical
socket.
Also, refer to the manufacturer's instruc-
tions for using the charging cable and its
components.
IMPORTANT
Check that the 230 V socket (alternating
current) has adequate power capacity for
charging electric vehicles – in the event of
uncertainty, the socket must be checked
by a qualified professional.
Note that the car must be switched off
before charging.

Or equivalent sockets with a different voltage, depending on market.
