Some electric car models may have a minimum charge power limit.
To ensure that the minimum charge power selector on the I-CON AUTOSTART station is used correctly, please check this value in
your car instruction manual.
For example, the minimum power limit for the Renault Zoe® is about 1.8kW (8A) for a single-phase recharge and 8.5kW (13A)
for three-phase, so in the case of a 4.6kW I-CON AUTOSTART charging station, the selector will have to be set at 100% or 60%.
A 30% selector setting is lower than the minimum power permitted by the car, so the recharging session will not be started.
