Usage Information
Connection Requirements
- When using the 16A charging mode, ensure you use a socket with at least a 16A rated current. If using a standard 10A socket, set the charger's current to a maximum of 10A. Failure to do so may result in damage and void the warranty.
- Do not place flammable materials, explosives, chemicals, or other hazardous substances near the device.
- Keep the charging connector clean. If dirty, wipe it with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid touching the metal pins of the connector. Ensure the charger is disconnected from the power supply before cleaning.
- Do not use the charger if the cable is damaged, cracked, worn, or if the core is exposed. Contact the dealer if any such damage is observed.
- Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify the charger yourself. Improper handling can lead to equipment damage, leakage, or electric shock.
- In case of any abnormality during use, immediately switch off the power supply.
- Use the charger under a canopy in rainy or snowy weather to protect it from the elements.
- Children must not use the device or be allowed near it during charging due to the risk of injury.
- It is strictly forbidden to remove the charging connector from the socket without authorization during the charging process, as this compromises user and vehicle safety.
- Vehicles must remain stationary while charging. This applies to all vehicle types.
