THINGS WE'RE OFTEN ASKED.

To install your MINI WALLBOX correctly, we recommend using our installation service. Simply arrange this service with your MINI Partner, alongside the MINI Wallbox Essential. Our official installation partner (Deutsche Telekom Technischer Service GmbH) will then take on all consultation, installation and start-up tasks. The benefits for you at a glance:

Inspection of electrical connection requirements at your property.
Recommendation of suitable installation locations based on your personal parking situation.
Installation, connection and start-up at your chosen installation location (including laying up to 2 m surface-mounted cabling).
Briefing on the charging process.
24-month warranty.

Your vehicle is charged using cashless payments – you can pay conveniently via a monthly direct debit from your payment account. Your MINI Charging online account provides you with a constant overview of your charging processes and the costs.

It’s all about keeping your battery as healthy as possible, for as long as possible. It is perfectly safe to charge your electric car to 100%, but the Lithium-Ion batteries that power most EVs are most efficient working in ranges from 20 to 80% – with charging rates slowing down considerably once the 80% mark has been reached. So while you can charge to 100%, if you can avoid it, the battery will thank you in the long term.

The MINI navigation system provides you with direct access to all charging stations in the MINI Charging network.

You can also search for charging stations: When you set "charging stations" as a special destination in your navigation system, you will be presented with a list of charging stations near you.

The MINI Charging app offers you another option by allowing you to access a list of all available charging stations on your smartphone.

You can use the MINI Charging map or the MINI Charging app to unlock charging stations and start the charging process.

Some charging columns can be operated using the MINI Charging app. The app, which features an integrated QR code scanner, is as easy to use as it is to install. To do so, simply download the app, enter your MINI Charging contract number and your PIN.

Normal charging with alternating current (AC):

This charges your car efficiently, primarily overnight but also during the day. Compared to a domestic power socket, an AC charging station provides more power and can charge the battery in just a few hours. This type of charging station is referred to as an AC charging station, for short.

Quick charging with direct current (DC):

DC quick charging stations are the better option when you need to charge your car fast. They can recharge your vehicle's battery quickly – while you go shopping or have a bite to eat, for example. The charging process lasts between 30 and 40 minutes. This type of charging station is referred to as a DC charging station, for short."
