 Note

The charging socket's LED light indicates the status for charging of the high-voltage battery and not whether the vehicle is drawing power, for example when the climate system is being used.
  1. 1 E.g. after a door has been opened or if the charging cable handle is not locked in place.
  2. 2 The more slowly the light flashes, the closer the battery is to being fully charged.
  3. 3 The light will go out after a short time.
