Welcome
Congratulations on your purchase of a Smart LUXTM! The Indra team hope you'll be delighted with the features, quality and user experience of the Smart LUXTM. This guide covers how to get started with your Smart LUXTM, explains key features, troubleshooting tips and important safety and warranty information. It is important that you read this guide carefully before using the Smart LUXTM, so you're completely familiar with all features and safety advice and are able to get the most from your Smart LUXTM.
Overview
The Smart LUXTM is a permanently installed electric vehicle charger providing up to 32 Amps (7.4kW) at 230V, 50Hz. There are 8 Smart LUXTM variants: · Smart LUXTM, Type 2 Tethered, Symphony Black, 6m (SMNFGT2BL401) · Smart LUXTM, Type 2 Tethered, Symphony Black, 10m (SMNFGT2BL402) · Smart LUXTM, Type 2 Tethered, Indra White, 6m (SMNFGT2WH401) · Smart LUXTM, Type 2 Tethered, Indra White, 10m (SMNFGT2WH402) · Smart LUXTM, Type 2 Tethered, Elgar Grey, 6m (SMNFGT2GY402) · Smart LUXTM, Type 2 Tethered, Elgar Grey, 10m (SMNFGT2GY404) · Smart LUXTM, Type 2 Tethered, Malvern Stone, 6m (SMNFGT2GY401) · Smart LUXTM, Type 2 Tethered, Malvern Stone, 10m (SMNFGT2GY403) The Smart LUXTM works like conventional chargers, but also offers a range of smart charging modes, designed to take advantage of local generation (e.g. solar PV), variable rate tariffs (e.g. Time of Use). In all modes, the Smart LUXTM calculates the best charging schedule that gets your EV ready when you need it.

Downloading the Indra App
Once your Smart LUXTM charger has been installed, you will need to download the Indra App from your phone's App store. Alternatively scan the QR code below and follow the instructions.

When requested please scan or enter the MAC address via the QR code located on the left hand side of the charger. Please note: in some instances it may take up to 48 hours for a newly installed charger to pair with the Indra App. Should you experience any difficulties, please contact support@indra.co.uk.
Designed to assist you in getting the most out of your Smart LUXTM, the Indra App is intuitive to use and enables you to manage all the smart charging functionality of your Smart LUXTM from the palm of your hand. Creating an account takes minutes and once signed in you will be guided through the initial set-up and details of the key smart features, including:

Smart Charging
Use the Indra App to set up a recurring charging schedule. Choose regular slots throughout the week, and the charger will automatically start charging during those times, as long as your EV is plugged in of course.

Solar Power
If you have solar panels installed at home, your charger can be set up to receive power from them. The charger will take any surplus solar power that's above 1.4kW not being used by your home, to charge your EV.

Charging History
View your charging history on the app, review your usage and check if you're charging at the most efficient time.

Using Boost
Plans changed? The Smart LUXTM Boost feature lets you temporarily override your schedule to get your car fully charged as soon as possible.

Getting set up
The first time you open the Indra App, you'll be asked to set up your charger. This should only take a few minutes to complete. We'll ask you for information about yourself, your EV and your electricity supplier and tariff. Having this information means we can calculate your charging times, electricity usage and amount spent correctly, which will enable you to optimise your smart charging. If you skip any steps in the set-up stage, you can do them later via the settings section. You can still charge your EV without going through the set-up process, but you won't be making the most of your charger's advanced features. Info we'll need about your EV: · Vehicle name (the nickname you want to call it in the app) · Number plate (we'll use this to find out more about your vehicle, such as its make
and model)
8 Indra Smart LUXTM User Guide

Info we'll need about your electricity supplier
Telling us about your electricity supplier and your tariff means we can help you charge at the most efficient times for you. By providing your electricity rate, we can not only calculate and show you how much you're spending, but you can also set the amount of money you want to spend on a charging session (e.g. adding £5-worth of charge to your car). We will ask you for details on: · Who your supplier is · Name of your tariff · What kind of tariff you have · What the unit (kWh) price is for your electricity · Tariff end date (if you have one)
9

Notifications
We'd like to send you notifications about your charging status. You can choose which notifications you want to receive as well as how and when you want to receive them. This is something you have complete control over, and we promise to never send you unwanted messages. There are three types of notification: · Push notifications (which go direct to your phone) · In-app notifications (which pop up while you're using the app) · Emails Notifications you can choose to receive include: · Vehicle plugged in · Charging started · Charging finished · Charging error · Charger error
10 Indra Smart LUXTM User Guide

Setting up scheduling and smart charging
Use the Indra App to set up a regular charging schedule. You can choose regular slots throughout the week and the charger will automatically start charging during those times, as long as your EV is plugged in. The app enables you to set the times and days/nights you want to charge and also how much energy to add (by miles, kWh or amount of money). If you have more than one electricity tariff rate (e.g. peak and off-peak), you can set up smart charging to charge your vehicle as much as possible during your lower rate period.
Default schedules
Your charger will come with a default charging schedule, as required by government legislation. This schedule is designed to reduce power demand at peak times and protect the national grid. But it might not be the best charging schedule for your needs, so we recommend you set up your own schedule once your charger is installed.

Charging lead stowage
NOTE: APPROPRIATE CHARGING LEAD STOWAGE IS ESSENTIAL TO PREVENT INADVERTANT TRIPS/ FALLS OR DAMAGE TO THE EV CONNECTOR Tethered Variants · We recommend that you use the charging lead hook provided with the charger when stowing your charging lead. · Depending on the layout of your charger, you may want to fit the charging lead hook below, above or to the side of your Smart LUXTM charger. · You can also use the top lip of the Smart LUXTM charger to wrap and store the charging lead, and it has been designed with this in mind.
Turbine lights
A unique light sequence provides a welcoming handshake and communicates the charger's status. These lights trace around the full circumference of the front panel and are visable through the turbine of the charger. The Turbine lights can be turned off via the Indra App at any time via the settings.

What do the LEDs on my charger's front panel mean?
There are two separate LED indicators on the Smart LUXTM. The Primary LED indicates the charger status, while the four panel LEDs highlight the charger's current mode. Each of these will illuminate a different colour and will emit a sequence of flashes that indicates the charger's current state.
