2023 JAGUAR I-PACE VEHICLE CHARGING
VEHICLE CHARGING SAFETY
Make sure to read and fully understand the following warnings and cautions before attempting to charge the vehicle. Failure to observe cautions and warnings may result in vehicle damage, injury, or death in the event of an accident.
Never disassemble, remove, or replace high voltage components, cables, or connectors. High voltage cables and connectors are colored orange for identification purposes.
Never use a charging cable if there is any damage to the unit.
Never use an extension lead or multiple socket in order to extend the reach of a charging cable.
Always fully unwind the charging cable. Failure to fully unwind the charging cable could lead to overheating of the cable.
Before initially connecting a charging cable, make sure the electricity supply has been checked and approved by a suitably qualified person.
Never attempt to pull the cable from the charging port once it is locked. Damage to the cable’s locking mechanism will result. If disconnection is required, press the unlock button on the smart key once for AC charging, twice for DC charging. The cable’s locking mechanism re-engages after a short time.
Always select the correct charging cable for the vehicle when using a public charging station, with a connector that matches the vehicle’s charging port.
Always contact a retailer/authorized repairer if the charging cable fails to release regularly.
Before attempting to perform any repairs on a vehicle, consult a retailer/authorized repairer.

The charging cable is locked into position once connected.
The charging process starts automatically, if all conditions have been met. See CHARGING PORT INDICATORS and CHARGING CABLE INDICATORS.
When charging is complete, unplug and store the charging cable, see DISCONNECTING A CHARGING CABLE.
During AC charging, if a power outage occurs, the charging process stops. Once power is restored, the AC charging process will resume automatically.
If a power outage occurs during DC charging the charging process must be manually resumed.
The vehicle is unable to start with the charging cable connected. See STARTING THE VEHICLE.
CHARGING PORT INDICATORS
A label adjacent to the charging port provides a quick reference to the behavior of the charging indicator LED in relation to charging status. See INTERACTIVE DRIVER DISPLAY.
An LED on the side of the charging port also informs the user of charging status. Before connecting a charging cable, the LED on the side of the charging port illuminates white to aid connecting the cable in dark conditions.
