Residual-current device
Mode 2 charging cables have overcurrent protection that protects against overloading and thermal overheating.
Warning
Overcurrent protection helps to protect the car's charging system, but there is no guarantee that an overload never occurs.
Temperature monitoring
The mode 2 cable is also equipped with a control unit, which has a built-in overtemperature monitoring function. This monitors the temperature of both the cable and the household socket.
Warning
The charging cable's temperature monitoring helps to protect the car's charging system, but there is no guarantee that overheating will never occur.
Important
- Avoid exposing the control unit and its plug connector to direct sunlight. The overheating protection in the plug connector may otherwise reduce or stop the charging of your car.
- If charging is unintentionally stopped, both the charging cable and the car’s charging system should be checked by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician. The household socket should also be checked by a licensed electrician.
