Adjusting Current (Button 'A')
Before connecting to the EV, you can adjust the charging current:
- Press button 'A' on the control box.
- Cycle through available current options: 8A, 10A, 13A, 16A.
- Select the desired current.
Caution: The charging current set shouldn't be higher than the supply current, otherwise there may be a safety hazard. The device cannot adjust the current during charging.
Setting Delay Charging Time (Button 'D')
You can set a delay for charging to start, from 1 to 15 hours. This feature requires the electric vehicle to support delayed charging.
- Press button 'D' on the control box.
- Adjust the delay time from 1 to 15 hours.
- Confirm the desired delay.
Charging Steps
- **Adjust Current:** Tap button "A" to adjust the current before charging (8A/10A/13A/16A).
- **Plug in the Charging Connector:** Connect the Type 1 (SAE J1772) charging plug to your EV's charging port. The charging process will begin automatically or after the set delay time.
Ending Charging
There are several ways to end the charging process:
- **Plan A (Automatic):** The charger will automatically stop charging when the car is fully charged. You can then directly unplug the charging connector.
- **Plan B (Manual Disconnect):** Turn off the power switch at the wall outlet or unplug the power side plug to end charging, then unplug the charging plug from your EV.
- **Plan C (Via EV Controls):** Stop charging from the electric vehicle itself. Most EVs have a stop charging button or switch. After stopping, unplug the charger plug.
- **Plan D (Via APP):** Click "Stop charging" on the Feyree APP, and then pull out the charger plug.
Important: Do not unplug the charging connector during an active charging session without first stopping the charge via one of the methods above.
