Charging With The Gas Engine

Charging with the Gas Engine: To increase battery charge, select Qualifying mode on the e-Manettino at least 30 minutes before parking. Maintain smooth driving inputs and avoid maximum engine output so the Ferrari internal combustion engine can recharge the high-voltage battery. Charging procedures do not differ between service sockets and standard wall sockets.
