What to do if you leave your I3 for a while?

-c- · 12-06-2014, 10:52 PM

Hey guys, I'm going to be out of the country for two weeks and didn't know if I should keep my i3 plugged in or charge it to 100% and leave it unplugged.

What are your thoughts ?

Leave it plugged in. Make sure to turn off your departure times.

The owner's manual discusses this...that should be your first source of info. It covers two situations...short term, and longer term up to 3-months. If longer, suggest you call your dealer for advice.

Yea flipped through it but didn't know what to look for, I plan to sit down and read it entirely but I have been so busy with work I have not had a chance. Hence why I asked the knowledgable forum members for quick help as that's why we're here right

I'd leave it plugged in period

I'd send the dealer a postcard if that.
