Everyday habits
- Fully charge the power battery with a charging device at least once a week.
- When SOC is below 30%, avoid hard acceleration and high speeds, and charge as soon as you can.
- Use EV+ mode only in an emergency – it discharges the battery more deeply.
In cold weather
Battery performance drops in the cold. To help:
- Below -10°C, park in a heated building or garage if you can.
- If you can't, leave the car plugged in. About half an hour before you set off, use the travel reservation function (in the Audio System or the remote app). It warms the battery to its best temperature and pre-conditions the cabin.
If the car won't be used for a long time
- Park where the temperature stays below 45°C, away from standing water and out of direct sunlight.
- Once a month, fully charge the battery, then drive/discharge it so it sits at about 50% SOC.
- The SOC shown on the cluster may be inaccurate after a long lay-up. Don't rely on it – fully charge before driving.
Caution:If you don't keep the battery topped up during long storage, it can over-discharge and lose performance. Faults and damage caused this way are not covered by the warranty.
Caution:When the car is powered on, don't run electrical equipment for long periods. When a low battery warning appears, charge promptly or start the car so the engine can charge it. Otherwise the car may not start. If it won't start because the power battery is badly depleted, plug in a charging gun to charge it, then try again. If it still won't start, contact an authorised Jaecoo service centre.
