Installation and power supply connection 4. Switch the external FI residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) back on. 5. Switch the MCB in your domestic power distribution box back on. Note! We recommend that you take your charging station into operation in the presence of a qualified installer: He or she will be able to assess the proper functioning of the charging station and correct any malfunctions or installation errors that may occur.
Taking into operation and charging procedure Taking into operation and charging procedure Your charging station is ready for use immediately after mechanical and electrical in- stallation have been completed. The EVSE 563 is equipped with a fixed charging cable with a type 2 charging connector. This connector has three current-carrying contacts, a PE-protective earth conductor as well as two sig- naling contacts (Control Pilot and Proximity Pilot), which ensure a secure connection and therefore the...
Taking into operation and charging procedure • Ensure that the upstream external FI residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) is switched on. • Ensure that the charging station has been installed according to the instructions in this manual: Check especially that there is free access to the charging station, that it is not exposed to direct sunlight or rain and that the electric vehicle can be con- nected without any strain or other encumbrance on the charging cable.
Taking into operation and charging procedure DANGER! If the cable, the charging connector and/or the housing have suffered mechanical damage or show visible deformities, you must under no cir- cumstances continue to operate the charging station. Please contact your local distributor from whom you have purchased the charging station.

Taking into operation and charging procedure The green LED will be illuminated continuously while the connection between charg- ing station and vehicle is being established. When the charging procedure begins, the green LED will be extinguished and the blue LED will be illuminated continuously. Charging is completed when the blue LED is flashing.
Resolving errors Resolving errors Your eMH1 charging station is engineered for maximum operational safety and the highest possible charging reliability. Should a malfunction occur in practice, this is shown by the indicator LEDs on the upper part of the housing as an error code. The following chapter describes how you recognize oper- ating states as well as error codes and which measures you must take to resolve them.
Resolving errors Note! The charging process is always terminated by the vehicle, not by the charging station. The EVSE 563 only indicates that you can unplug the charging cable from the vehicle charging socket on the basis of commu- nication with the vehicle. Should the vehicle not be charged sufficiently at this point, please contact your service partner for the vehicle.
Resolving errors Disruptions to the operation of the charging station and solutions To take suitable measures and restore operation in case of malfunction, you must first clearly identify the type of error. Note! The EVSE 563 must be protected during operation by an external type B RCCB in your domestic power distribution box.
Resolving errors Taking the device out of operation If required, you can take your charging station temporarily or permanently out of op- eration. To do so proceed as follows: • Flick the pivot lever of the upstream onsite RCCB into the 0 position (connection to the power supply is interrupted).
