Specifications
Overview
Use only a 120-volt, 208-volt or 240-volt AC supply, 50/60 hertz wall outlet
that has a dedicated and properly grounded circuit, and is rated for at least
15 amps.
If possible, use a dedicated outlet with a single socket. If the outlet has
two sockets, do not plug any other items into the other socket.
The Mobile Charging Cable is 20 feet (6 meters) long. Use an existing outlet or install a new outlet within approximately 13 feet (4 meters) of the vehicle’s charge port and at least 18 inches (45 cm) above the ground. The charge port door is located to the rear of the driver side front wheel.

Adaptors
Exhibit A
The Lucid Mobile Charger includes two outlet adaptors: one for a standard 120-volt household outlet and a second adaptor for a 240-volt outlet. Additional adaptors may be available for purchase from Lucid. For faster charging, use a 240-volt outlet.
Note

Charging Time
Description
Charging times vary based on the voltage and current available from the power
outlet, subject to various conditions. Charge time also depends on ambient
temperature and the vehicle’s battery temperature. If the battery is not
within the optimal temperature range for charging, the vehicle heats or cools
the battery before or during charging.
To estimate the time needed to recharge the battery in hours (from near zero
percent to near one hundred percent), divide the battery size (kWh) by power
(kW). Different adaptors provide different current and power outputs.
While you are charging your vehicle, you can also touch the charging icon on
your infotainment screen or the Lucid App to review the charging status
information- including the time remaining until fully charged at the currently
selected charge level.
For more information on how long it takes to charge your Lucid vehicle, go to
www.lucidmotors. com/charging.
Note
An electricity relationship principle known as Ohm’s Law states that a
240-volt circuit charging at 40 amps provides 9600 watts of power: 40 x 240 =
9600. When expressed as kilowatts, this works out to 9.6 kW.
Thus, it would take between 9-10 hours to charge a 90 kWh battery pack from 0%
capacity to 100% capacity. (90 divided by 9.6 is roughly 9.3 hours.) Further
note that, in order to avoid possible battery damage, Lucid recommends that
you never fully discharge the vehicle battery.
Connecting the Adaptor
Attaching
To attach an adaptor, line up the adaptor plug with the control box of the
Mobile Charging Cable and push it into the socket until it snaps into place.
Removing
To remove the adaptor, firmly grasp the adapter and pull it from its socket.
Plugging In
To plug the unit in, line up the adaptor plug with electrical outlet on the
wall and push it into the outlet until it snaps into place and is fully
inserted.
Note
The Mobile Charging Cable automatically detects the attached adaptor and sets
the appropriate charging amperage.
Charging your Vehicle
Plugging in
Follow these steps to ensure proper charging of your Lucid vehicle.
- Ensure that the adaptor plugged into the Mobile Charging Cable matches the outlet you want to use.
- Plug the Mobile Charging Cable plug head into the power outlet. The adaptor should be inserted completely into the power outlet. The Lucid logo on the control box should light up with a white light to indicate the unit is powered and ready.
- With your vehicle unlocked, open the charge port door.
- Press the Connector latch button, and plug the Mobile Charging Cable Connector into your vehicle’s charge port.
- When you plug the Mobile Charging Cable into your vehicle, the Lucid logo on the control box and the charge port light will pulse green to indicate charging.
Unplugging
When charging is complete, the light stops pulsing and turns solid green. You can then safely unplug the vehicle using these steps.
- With the vehicle unlocked, press the Connector Latch Button and then pull the Connector out of the charge port.
- Lucid recommends leaving the Mobile Charging Cable plugged into the wall outlet to reduce wear and tear from daily use. If you do not plan to use the Mobile Charging Cable for extended periods of time (e.g, vacation), unplug it, and store it in an appropriate location.
Mobile Charger Status Lights
The Mobile Charging Cable Control Box includes lights that indicate device status. Refer to the following table to understand device status.
Wall Mount Installation
Instructions
The Mobile Charging Cable Wall Mount is designed to hold the control box in place on the wall.
- Select a location with an electrical socket in a covered area protected against direct sunlight and rain (e.g. in a garage). Place the Wall Mount at adaptor cable’s length from the wall outlet. Measure using the included adaptors before marking pilot holes.
- Drill the pilot holes. Ensure the pilot holes being drilled are clear of conduits or other electrical wiring within the selected wall.
- Using two of the included drywall screws, fasten the bracket to the wall.
- After plugging the adaptor head in, snap the control box into the bracket.
Cable Organizer Installation
Instructions
The Mobile Charging Cable Organizer is designed to organize the connector-side
cable of the unit.
- Take the metal hardware bracket and position it along a wall within proximity of the electrical socket and wall mount.
- Mark the pilot holes on the wall.
- Drill the mounting holes. Using 2 of the included drywall screws, fasten the bracket to the wall.
- Position the Organizer directly above the bracket along the wall, and slide the Organizer downwards onto the bracket.
