The Manual Boost function can only be used when charging in ECO or ECO+ mode. When boosting, the charge rate
is set to maximum (just like FAST mode), until a set amount of energy has been stored in the EV's battery. After

This function is useful if you arrive home with an almost flat battery and would like to charge the vehicle immediately

When in ECO or ECO+ mode, each press of the button will cycle through the boost options as illustrated below:
