Selecting the Installation
Location
The basic wall mount and charging dock are designed
for indoor and outdoor installation. The following
criteria must be considered when selecting a suitable
installation location:
– Ideally, install the electrical socket and supply
line, the basic wall mount or charging dock in
a covered area that offers protection from direct
sunlight and rain (e.g. in a garage).
– The distance of the electrical socket from the
floor and ceiling should be selected in compliance
with national regulations and standards so that
comfortable use is ensured.
– Do not install the basic wall mount or charging
dock under suspended or hanging objects.
– Do not install the basic wall mount or charging
dock in stables, livestock buildings or places
where ammonia gases occur.
– Install the basic wall mount or charging dock on
a smooth surface.
– In order to ensure secure fastening, check the
condition of the wall before installing.
– Install the basic wall mount or charging dock as
close as possible to the preferred parking position
of the vehicle. Take the orientation of the vehicle
into account.
– Install the basic wall mount or charging dock so
that it is not near pathways and the supply cables
do not cross any pathways.
– Install the basic wall mount or charging dock so
that the distance between the power plug and
power socket does not exceed the length of the
available supply cable.
Tools required

The cross-section of the power cable for the
electrical socket must be defined in accordance
with the wire length and the locally applicable
regulations and standards.
e
The electrical socket used for charging must be
connected to a separately fused electric circuit
that complies with local laws and standards.
