Important Safety Instructions
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur
in a particular installation.
DANGER
Electric shock, short
circuit, fire, explosion
Use of a damaged or incorrect charging cable and of
a damaged or incorrect electrical socket, improper
use of the charger or failure to observe the safety
instructions can lead to short circuits, electric
shocks, explosions, fires or burns.
e
Do not use a damaged and/or soiled charger.
Check the cable and plug connection for damage
and soiling before use.
e
Only connect the charger to properly installed and
undamaged electrical sockets and fault-free
electrical installations.
e
Do not use extension cables, cable reels, multiple
sockets or (travel) adapters.
e
Disconnect the charger from the power grid
during thunder storms.
e
Do not modify or repair any of the electrical
components.
e
Never
immerse the charger or the plugs in water.
e
Only clean the charger when the control unit has
been fully disconnected from the power grid and
from the vehicle. Use a dry cloth for cleaning.
DANGER
Electric shock, fire
Incorrectly installed electrical sockets can cause
electric shock or fire when the high-voltage battery is
charged using the vehicle charge port.
e
Installation and initial operation of the electrical
socket for the charger may only be carried out by
an electrically skilled person. The electrically
skilled person is fully responsible for compliance
with the relevant standards and regulations.
e
The charger should only be operated in properly
earthed power supply systems. Operation in non-
earthed systems (e.g. IT networks) is not
possible.
e
The cross-section of the cable for the electrical
socket is defined in accordance with the wire
length and the locally applicable regulations and
standards.
e
To ensure uninterrupted charging, we recom-
mend that you only use electrical sockets that are
connected via a separately fused electric circuit
for charging.
e
The charger is intended for use in private and
semi-public areas (e.g. private property, company
parking). Country dependent, Mode 2 charging is
prohibited
in public areas and public spaces.
e
Unauthorized persons (e.g. playing children) must
not have access to the charger or the vehicle
during unsupervised charging.

port or the charger.
e
Do not insert any objects into the vehicle charge
port or into the charger.
e
Protect electrical sockets and plug connections
against moisture, water and other liquids.
WARNING
Flammable or explosive
vapors
Components of the charger can cause sparks and
ignite flammable or explosive vapors.
e
To reduce the risk of explosion, particularly in
garages, make sure that the control unit is
located at least 19.7 in. (50 cm) above the floor
during charging.
e
The charger must not be used in potentially
explosive atmospheres.
