In this video, learn how to charge a Kuga plug-in Hybrid at home using a Ford Wallbox and the standard charging cable provided with the vehicle, designed for regular use. It can be plugged into a socket without using extensions or adapters, even if you do not have the specific Wallbox, which allows for faster charging and comes with an integrated cable that simplifies the process.

The start of charging is indicated by a green light.

Before connecting the cable to the vehicle, ensure the car is in park mode, then press the charging flap to open it; the LEDs will flash to show the charging status. A full charge with the Wallbox takes three and a half hours, while using a domestic socket takes about six hours; you can check the charging status remotely via the Ford Pass app. Once charging is complete, simply press the unlock button, but you will still need the car key to do so. Never use extensions or adapters.
