INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO A RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK

• To prevent the risk of fire or electric shock accidents, please read and follow these safety precautions and operating procedures carefully.
• There is a risk of electric shock. Do not connect the electric vehicle and the charger before the inspection. Just turning off the charger does not reduce the risk.
• Do not touch the non-insulated parts of the output connector. There could be a serious risk of electric shock.
• Do not use a connector with exposed damaged wires or a damaged connector. Replace all damaged parts with new ones before operation.
• Do not disassemble the charger. Have it inspected by a certified technician. Incorrect assembly can cause an explosion, electric shock, or fire.
• Never use the charger if the vehicle’s inlet or charger connector is wet.
• Do not install or operate with wet hands. There is a risk of electric shock.
• Disconnect the input power before opening the charger case. Contact with electrically live parts of the charger can lead to electric shock accidents, serious injuries, or even death.
• Perform grounding work according to national electrical safety standards and local electrical safety standards. Not grounding properly can lead to fatal electric shock accidents.

CAUTION

• Ensure the charger connector is free from water, humidity, or foreign substances.
• Do not place the charger near flammable materials during use. Keep it away from carpets and cluttered workspaces.
• Educate children to prevent them from playing with the device.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Caution!

• Do not expose the charger to rain, high temperatures, dust, corrosive gases, flammable substances, or explosive gases.

Installation Location

WARNING
Risk of explosion. This equipment has arcing or sparking parts that should not be exposed to flammable vapors. This
equipment should be located at least 460 mm (18.1 inches) above the floor.

1. When the device installed outdoor
   This device shall be mounted at a sufficient height from grade such that the height of the storage means for the coupling device is located between 600 mm (23.6 inches) and 1.2 m (3.9 feets) from grade.

2. When the device installed indoor
   This device shall be mounted at a sufficient height from grade such that the height of the storage  means for the coupling device is located between 450 mm (17.7 inches) and 1.2 m (3.9 feets) from grade.

   • For optimal performance and maximum lifespan, choose your installation location carefully. Operational lifespan and performance are affected by the location of the charger.
   • Choose a dry area with good ventilation.
   • To reduce the risk of fire, install the charger on a non-combustible surface made of concrete, stone, brick, or iron.
   • Do not block the front of the charger.
   • Install the charger at a height of 0.6 to 1.2 m (1.9 – 3.9 feets)above the ground.
   • Install in a location equipped with an earth leakage circuit breaker.
   • Do not expose the charger to rain, high temperatures, dust, corrosive gases, flammable substances, or explosive gases.
   • Install a certain distance from the parking space to prevent damage from parked vehicles.

Installation Process Charger

1. Use the enclosed fixing anchors and screws to hang the wall mount on the wall.

   • Check the wall material and thickness of the finishing materials.
   • The enclosed anchors and screws can be used when the wall material is non-cracking concrete, lightweight  concrete, strong natural stone, soft natural stone, brick, and hollow block.
   • Never install on walls made of plasterboard or material made by compressing paper/wood dust (MDF). If you must install, anchor screws must be fixed into the retaining wall (concrete) within the finishing materials. If there is no retaining wall, an additional hanger must be installed before fixing the anchor screws.
   • If installing on other unspecified wall materials, ensure the material can withstand a pull-out load of 70 kgf (686 N) and a shearing load of 100 kgf (980 N) per anchor point.
   • Use a 8 mm drill bit for concrete and a hammer (impact) drill.
     a. Use a drill bit of 8 mm to drill holes to a depth of 80 mm – 100 mm (3.1 – 3.9 inches) at the anchor positions.
     
     b. Clean the drilled holes.
     
     c. Insert the enclosed anchor into the hole (use a hammer when inserting the anchor).
     
     d. Press the wall mount against the wall in alignment with the hole positions. Ensure the angle adjustment part faces upward.
     
     e. Align the wall mount fixing screws with the holes and fasten them. At this point, tighten the screws to a torque of 45 kgf/cm – 60 kgf/cm (441 – 588 N) or more.
     

2. Align the charger with the base frame and secure the charger
   

3. Open the main body of the charger and use the enclosed M4 O-ring screw to secure the body to the wall mount.
   

4. Tighten Screw for Front and body enclosure to 6kgfcm(5.2lbfIn).
   

5. After completing installation, attach the SEAL LABLE as shown below.
   

NOTE

Wiring and Grounding

1. Check that the breaker on the distribution panel is turned off.
2. Detach the plastic cover on the terminal block.
