High-voltage battery
The vehicle is equipped with a high-voltage battery for electric propulsion, which is located underneath the vehicle. The battery and the high-voltage system work with much higher voltage than the vehicle's ordinary electrical system.
Only authorized workshop personnel may handle high-voltage components.
If the high-voltage battery is discharged, it will not be possible to drive the vehicle. To charge the battery, the vehicle's smaller 12 V battery must also have sufficient charge to power the vehicle's electrical system and start charging.
Warning
High-voltage battery replacement may only be performed by a workshop – an authorized Volvo workshop is recommended.
