Product Description

Type I/SAE J1772

Type II/IEC 62196

Warning

• Do not install or use the charger near flammable, explosive, harsh, or combustible materials, chemicals,or vapors.
• Turn off the input power at the circuit breaker before cleaning the charger.
• Use the charger only within the specified operating parameters.
• Do not attempt to open, disassemble, repair, tamper with, or modify the charger. The charger is not user serviceable.
• Do not use the charger when either you, the vehicle or the charger is exposed to severe rain, snow, electrical storm, or other severe weather.
• Do not forcefully pull the charging cable or damage it with sharp objects.
• Do not insert foreign objects into any part of the charging vehicle connector.
• Please fully insert the plug into the socket so that the metal plug fork can be fully connected to the socket to avoid burning the socket due to poor connection.
• Using a worn or damaged AC outlet may cause burns or start a fire.
• If the AC power cord is hot while charging, unplug the unit and replace the AC outlet.

Caution

• Do not operate the charger in temperatures outside its operating range of -22°F (-30°C) to 122°F (50°C).
• Ensure that the charging cable is positioned so it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or subjected to damage or stress.
• To reduce the risk of electrical shock, please connect to properly grounded outlets.
• Never leave children unattended while the vehicle is charging and never allow children to play with the charge cable.
• If the plug provided does not fit the outlet, do not modify the plug, arrange for a qualified electrician to inspect the outlet.
• This equipment should be installed, adjusted, and serviced by qualified electrical personnel familiar with the construction and operation of this type of equipment and the hazards involved. Failure to observe this precaution could result in death or severe injury.
• Lock out all electrical source circuits feeding the charging unit in the open position before beginning wiring or terminations. Failure to follow the instructions could result in server bodily injury or death.

How to Start/Stop Charging

1. Firmly insert the power plug into the outlet.
2. Take off the cap and then insert the EV charging connector into your vehicle.
3. The device starts charging automati-cally while the green CHARGE LED blinks in every 0.5s.
4. Unplug the AC power cord.
5. Press the button and pull the EV charging connector out of the vehicle.
6. Close the cap of the vehicle and then place back the cap of the EV charging connector.
7. Put the portable EV charger into the box.

LED Display Status

When the red light flashes, it is highly suggested that users stop charging.

Grounding Abnormal

Grounding (FG/PE) Abnormal (Error Message 5)
When a ground fault is detected, the red indicator light will flash (5 times).
It’s just a reminder. The EV charger will operate normally without the ground wire because it is not a part of the conducting path which supplies electricity to the appliance. We suggest your outlet should be grounded.

Action You Need To Take:
Find an electrician to check if the ground wire of the home outlet is connected.

Why is grounding important?
The most important reason for grounding wire is that it can protect your EV charger, your home, and everyone in it from surges in electricity. If your electrical system is grounded, all of that excess electricity will go into the earth — rather than frying everything connected to your system.
