4. Lock the vehicle and / or allow charging according to the vehicle owner's 
manual - if required. The LED should then light up solid blue and the latch 
will lock the connector. 
 

An  electrical  lock  (latch)  is  built  into  the  socket,  which  locks  the  plug 
throughout  the  charging  process  to  prevent  it  from  being  accidentally 
pulled out. Do not try to unplug the cable while it is charging! 
 

5.When  the  charging  process  starts,  the  LED  will  turn  to  solid  green. 
Charging  lasts  until  the  car  battery  is  fully  charged  or  the  charging  is 
stopped. 
 
6.When the car battery is fully charged, the device switches to the "vehicle 

connected" state (the LED turns to solid blue). The charging process is complete. 

Always disconnect the cable 

from the vehicle first and then from the charger connector.

 (In some cars, you can only disconnect the cable 

by opening the doors and / or stopping charging according to the vehicle's instruction manual.) 
 
7.If the charging process is still on-going but you want to stop it, always do that from the vehicle! Open the 
vehicle door and / or stop charging according to the vehicle's operating instructions. 

Do not unplug or pull the 

charging cable out during charging process!

 (The closed latch also does not allow to unplug the cable.) 

 

When charging is complete, disconnect the cable from the charger!  

Keep the cable in a protective case / bag 

or hang it loosely on a cable holder so that the connectors do not touch the floor. The connectors and cable 
must be protected from mechanical damage and dirt. 

Never stand on the charging cable with the car, as its 

internal wires may be damaged! If a plug and/or its contact terminals are damaged or dirty, do not use the 
charging cable until it has been properly repaired! 
 

 

3.4. Key lock (optional) 

 

 

 

If you ordered the device with this option, there is a key lock installed on the front 
panel. 

The key lock does not de-energize or switch off the charger!

 The key lock in 

the charger control activates electronics that prevents the charger from connecting 
(exchanging data) with the vehicle. Thus, even if an unauthorized person connects 
your vehicle to the charger with the charging cable, the LED will flash blue and will 
not charge the vehicle until enabled with the key lock. 

If  you  turn  off  the  key  lock  while  charging  (turning  it  to  the  disable  charging 

position), the charger continuously reduces the charging current to 6A in about 5 seconds and then completely 
shuts  off  the  charging current  from  the  output. The charging  cable can  then  be  unplugged  from  the  vehicle 
socket) and the charger switches to standby mode, the LED starts flashing blue.
