2.1
General information
The device must only be used in a technically faultless condition.
Any malfunctions that adversely affect the safety of persons or
of the device must be immediately rectified by a qualified elec-
trician in accordance with nationally applicable regulations.
NOTE
It is possible that the signalling in the vehicle differs
from that described here. Always read the operating in-
structions of the respective vehicle manufacturer and al-
ways observe these.
2.2
General safety information
l
Hazardous voltages are present within the casing.
l
The charging station does not have its own main ON/
OFF switch. The protective devices installed in the
power supply system are therefore also used to discon-
nect the power supply.
l
Check charging station for visual damage before use.
Do not use the charging station if damaged.
l
Installation, electrical connection and initial operation
of the charging station must only be carried out by an
electrician.
l
Do not remove the cover of the installation area whilst
in operation.
l
Do not remove markings, warning symbols and the
type label from the charging station.
l
The charging cable must only be replaced by an elec-
trician in accordance with the installation instructions.
l
It is strictly prohibited to connect other equipment/

l
Make sure that the charging cable and coupling can-
not be driven over, trapped and are protected from
any other hazards.
l
Immediately notify Webasto Customer Service if the
charging station, charging cable or the charging coup-
ling are damaged. Do not continue using the charging
station.
l
Prevent the charging cable and coupling from coming
in contact with external heat sources, water, dirt and
chemicals.
l
The Webasto Next charging station also meters the
plug-in cycles of the charge coupling for service pur-
poses and after 10,000 plug-in cycles, displays a note
on the web interface that an electrician needs to in-
spect the plug contacts on the charge coupling for any
signs of wear. If any signs of wear are discovered, the
electrician must replace the affected charging cables
with genuine Webasto spare parts.
l
Do not attach extension cables or adapters to the
charging cable.
l
Remove the charging cable by pulling on the charging
coupling only.
l
Never clean the charging station with a high-pressure
cleaner or similar device.
l
Switch off the power supply before cleaning the char-
ging sockets.
l
The charging cable must not be subjected to any strain
during use.
l
Ensure only persons who have read these operating in-
structions have access to the charging station.
WARNING
l
When not in use, store the charging cable in the desig-
nated holder and lock the charging coupling in the re-
mote dock. Loosely wind the charging cable around
the remote dock making sure the cable does not touch
the floor.
l
You must make sure that the charging cable and coup-
ling cannot be driven over, trapped and are protected
from all other hazards.
