Information on Use

1. When using the 16 A charging mode, use an outlet with a rated current of at least 16 A. If using a standard 10A outlet, set the current mode to no more than 10A. Using an incorrect current setting may void the warranty if the charger is damaged.
2. Do not place flammable materials, explosives, chemicals, or other hazardous substances near the appliance.
3. Keep the charging connector clean. If dirty, wipe it with a clean, dry cloth. Do not touch the metal pins in the connector with your hands. Ensure the charger is not connected to the power source or the device.
4. Do not use the charger if the cable is damaged, cracked, worn, or has exposed wires. If you notice any of the above abnormalities, contact your dealer.
5. Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify the charger yourself. Improper handling may result in damage to the device, leakage, or electric shock.
6. In case of any abnormality during use, immediately disconnect the power.
7. During rainfall, use the charger under shelter. Protect from rain and snow.
8. Children must not use or be near the device during charging due to the risk of injury.
9. It is strictly forbidden to unplug the charging plug from the socket without authorization during charging, as this poses a risk to the vehicle or user safety.
10. Vehicles must not move during charging. Charging can only be performed when the vehicle is stationary. This applies to all types of vehicles.

Charging Tips

1. Ensure the electrical installation is equipped with a Type B residual current device (RCD).
2. Plug the charger into a 230 V socket.
3. (Optional) Press the clock icon button to set the charging delay.
4. Set the desired current (using the "A" button).
5. Connect the charging cable to the vehicle.
6. Monitor the progress on the LCD display.
7. Upon completion, disconnect the device from the vehicle first, then from the socket.

How to Start Charging

1. Firmly insert the plug into the wall socket. (Ensure the electrical socket complies with national standards and has a current rating of 16 A.)
2. Press the [A] button to switch the charging current mode, and press the [Clock] button to schedule the charging delay.
3. Gently pull out the cover and fully insert the charging plug into the vehicle's socket. Ensure the charging plug is fully inserted until you hear a click.
4. The device will begin charging.

Current Settings
