Safety instructions
To guarantee uninterrupted charging operation
with the charging cable with display unit, follow
the following instructions and recommendations:
- Before installation, check whether with the
present house installation the additional power
required for charging a vehicle can be made
available permanently. If necessary, secure the
house installation with an energy management
system.
- Only use the charging cable with display unit
on grounded power networks. The grounding
conductor must be installed properly.
- For new installation of the outlet, select an
industrial outlet with the largest possible power
(adapted to the electrical house installation)
and have it installed and put into service by a
qualified electrician.
- Dimension the electrical installation, insofar
as technically possible and legally permitted,
so that the maximum rated power of the outlet
used is permanently available for charging the
vehicle.
- To use the capacity of the charging cable with
display unit optimally and guarantee quick
charging, use NEMA outlets with the highest
possible current rating corresponding to the
power plug or industrial outlets according to
IEC 60320.
- When charging the high-voltage battery via the
household outlet, the electrical installation can
be loaded up to its maximum capacity. Volkswa-
gen Group of America recommends having the
electrical installation used for charging checked
regularly by an electrician. Ask an electrician
what inspection intervals make sense for your
installation.
WARNING
The use of a damaged or defective charging
cable or of a damaged or defective outlet,
improper use of the display unit or a failure to
heed the safety instructions can cause short-
circuits, electric shocks, explosions, fires or
burns.
• Do not use damaged and/or dirty charging
cables with display unit. Check the cable
and plug connector for damage and dirt
before use.
• Only connect the charging cable with
display unit to properly installed and unda-
maged outlets and electrical installations
that have no defects.
• Do not use an extension cable, cable
drums, multiple outlets or (travel) adap-
ters.
• Disconnect the charging cable with dis-
play unit from the power network during a
thunderstorm.
• Do not make changes or repairs to electri-
cal components.
• Never immerse the display unit and the
plugs in water or subject them to a direct
steam of water (e.g. pressure washers or
garden hoses).
• Only clean the charging cable if the dis-
play unit is completely disconnected from
the power network and the vehicle.
• Use a dry cloth for cleaning.
WARNING
Improperly installed outlets can cause electric
shock or fire when charging the high-voltage
battery via the vehicle charging connection.
• Installation and start-up of the outlet for
the charging cable with display unit may
only be performed by a qualified electri-
cian. The electrician is responsible here
for complete compliance with the existing
standards and regulations.

• Specify the cable cross-section of the feed
line to the outlet taking into consideration
the line length and locally applicable regu-
lations and standards.
• Connect the outlet used for charging via a
separately fused circuit that complies with
the local laws and standards.
• The charging cable with display unit is
intended for use in the private and semi-
public sector (e.g. private properties,
company parking lots).
• During unattended charging, unauthorized
people (e.g. children at play) must have
no access to the charging cable with
display unit and vehicle.
• Follow the safety instructions in the ins-
tallation instructions and in the vehicle‘s
owner‘s manual.
WARNING
Incorrect handling of the plug contacts can
cause electric shock or fire.
• Do not touch the contacts on the vehicle
charging connection or on the charging
cable with display unit.
• Do not insert any objects into the vehicle
charging connection or the charging
cable.
• Protect outlets and plug connectors
against moisture, water, and other fluids.
WARNING
Components of the charging cable can gene-
rate sparks and therefore ignite flammable or
explosive vapors.
• To reduce the risk of explosions - espe-
cially in garages - make sure that the
charging unit is at least 19.7 in (50 cm)
above the floor when charging.
• Do not use the charging cable in areas
subject to explosion.
WARNING
Unsecured, improperly secured or incorrectly
positioned objects can slide during braking,
acceleration, change of direction or in case of
accidents; these can endanger passengers and
cause severe injuries.
• Never transport the charging cable with
display unit and adapter line(s)
unsecured.
• Use the included bag for the charging
cable to securely store the charging cable
with display unit and the adapter line(s).
Hook the bag for the charging cable
into one of the lashing eyes in the cargo
compartment.
• Always transport the charging back in the
cargo compartment; do not put it in the
passenger compartment (e.g. on or in
front of the seats).
Intended use
The charging cable with display unit is suitable
for charging mode 2 for charging vehicles with
high-voltage batteries, which comply with the ge-
nerally valid standards and guidelines for electric
vehicles.
