# Charging menu

The following displays may vary depending on the selected charging method and if a charging process is active.

The charging capacity and the duration of the charging process may differ between individual charging processes. These depend on the charging infrastructure and the temperature of the high- voltage battery. The charging capacity can also vary during the charging process.

Infotainment system: charging ranges and touch slider

$①$  Currently reached charge level of the high- voltage battery.

$②$  Lower battery charge limit set in the profile of the charging location.

$③$  Active navigation of the Electric Vehicle Route Planner: automatically calculated lower battery charge limit for planned charging stops.

$④$  Touch slider for the upper battery charge limit.

$⑤$  Charging range above  $80\%$ , e.g. for long journeys.

In the case of electric vehicle route planning, the symbol is displayed. The high- voltage battery will be charged so that the vehicle range is sufficient to reach the next charging stop. If a higher battery charge limit has been set, the vehicle will continue to charge until this is reached.

Observe the charging recommendations and battery care instructions.

Infotainment system: current charge level of the high- voltage battery

$\mathbb{A}$  Very low charge level.  $(\widehat{\mathbf{B}})$  Charge level in reserve range.  $(C)$  Charge level in normal range.

# Settings menu

Settings menu- Battery Care Mode.- Reduces AC charging current.- Automatic cable unlock at the end of AC charging.


# WARNING

WARNINGEven if a reduced charging current is used, charging the high- voltage battery at an unsuitable electrical installation can cause a short circuit, electric shock, explosions and fire. There is a risk of damage, as well as serious or fatal injuries.
