The charging flaps can be opened using a hand gesture by wiping the flat of your hand across the sensor at the rear of the respective flap. The prerequisite for this is that the vehicle is unlocked and the selector lever is in the P position.
Alternatively, the charging flaps can be operated via the central display (PCM).
Note: For detailed operating instructions, refer to the Owner's Manual.

Alternating current (AC)
AC charging is possible on the right and left side. If one connection is used, the other is automatically blocked.
