1. Avoid Charging During Peak Heat Hours

High temperatures may trigger thermal throttling, reducing charging speed. Try charging in the early morning or late evening when it's cooler.

2. Let the Battery Cool Down After Driving

Driving or fast charging generates heat. Let your vehicle rest for 15–30 minutes before plugging in to avoid excessive thermal buildup.

3. Use Slow Charging When Possible

Level 2 AC charging produces less heat than DC fast charging. It's safer for regular use during heatwaves.

4. Limit Battery Charging to 80%

High temperatures plus a fully charged battery accelerate battery aging. Keep charging levels between 60–80% in summer.

5. Precondition the Battery Before Charging

Many EVs allow you to pre-cool the battery while plugged in, improving charging efficiency and reducing stress on the system.

6. Keep Your Vehicle Plugged In While Parked

Some EVs can activate cooling systems while plugged in, protecting the battery from heat when stationary.

7. Charge in Shaded or Covered Areas

Avoid direct sunlight while charging. Park under trees, awnings, or covered stations whenever possible.

8. Ensure Proper Ventilation Around the Charger

Whether indoors or outdoors, make sure the area around your charger is well-ventilated to prevent overheating.

9. Avoid Frequent Fast Charging & Deep Discharging

DC fast charging combined with repeatedly draining the battery to 0% can cause stress—especially in hot climates.

10. Inspect Charging Equipment Regularly

Check connectors for heat, wear, or looseness. Ensure the charger displays normal operation with no warning signs.
