The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate electrical outlet that is
properly installed in accordance with
all local codes and ordinances. Do not
modify the plug provided with the
product. If the plug does not fit the
electrical outlet, have a proper
electrical outlet installed by a qualified
electrician. If ground is missing, the
charge cord indicators will indicate an
electrical system fault and the vehicle
may not charge.
Installing and Operating the Portable
Charge Cord
The charge cord must be on a dedicated
individual branch circuit. A dedicated circuit
ensures that there is enough power
available without overloading the system.
If a dedicated circuit is not used, the circuit
breaker could trip or open. If a dedicated
circuit is not available, contact a a qualified
electrician. See Grounding Instructions
later on in this section.
1. Snap the desired connectors into the
control box before making any other
connections.
Ensure the connectors are fully inserted
into the control box or the charge cord
will not work properly.
2. Mount the charge cord to reduce strain
on the electrical outlet/plug. Mount the
control box in a suitable location to
prevent physical stress on the electrical
outlets and charge cord components.
Mount the control box directly to the
wall or stud near a suitable electrical
outlet. The retention eyelets on the
control box are optimized for use with
#10 drywall screws.
