Charging cable residual current device
The charging cable has a circuit breaker that helps protect against current overloads and thermal overheating.
Warning
Charging the hybrid battery may only be done from approved, grounded 120/240 V outlets (AC, alternating current). If the electrical circuit or electrical socket's capacity is not known, let a licensed electrician inspect the electrical circuit's capacity. Using a charge level that exceeds the electrical circuit's or electrical outlet's capacity may start a fire or damage the electrical circuit.
Warning
- The charging cable's residual current breaker helps protect the vehicle's charging system but cannot ensure that an current overload will never occur.
- Never use visibly worn or damaged electrical outlets. Doing so could lead to fires or serious injury.
- Never connect the charging cable to an extension cord.
- Maintenance or replacement of the hybrid battery may only be performed by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician.
- Do not use any charging cable other than the recommended one.
- Do not use an external timer between the charging cable and the electrical outlet.
- Do not use any adapters between the charging cable and the electrical outlet.
 | LED indicator |
If the charging cable's residual current device is triggered, the LED indicator will light up red. Have the outlet checked by a licensed electrician or try using another wall outlet.
Important
- Check the capacity of the socket.
- Other electronic equipment connected on the same fuse circuit must be disconnected if the total load is exceeded.
- Do not connect the charging cable if the socket is damaged.
