Safety instructions
2.1 General safety information
Qualified personnel
All activities should be performed by qualified personnel. Due to their education, experience
and training, such people have knowledge of:
• Relevant standards and regulations
• Accident prevention guidelines
They are authorized to perform the necessary activities and to detect and prevent possible
dangers.
Personal protective equipment
Avoid accidents and hazardous situations. Use your personal protective equipment according
to the activity you are performing (such as safety helmet, safety goggles, gloves, and safety
shoes).
Safety equipment
To rule out hazardous conditions, it is strictly prohibited to change, remove, bypass, or
override safety devices.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in hazardous situations that could cause death
or serious injury.
Risk of explosion and fire
Do not store or use flammable liquids that produce flammable fumes, such as gasoline or
ethanol, in the vicinity of the charging station. Electrostatic charging or the heat occurring
during charging can ignite highly flammable liquids and cause an explosion.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in hazardous situations that could cause death
or serious injury.
Floodwater
If the charging station is fully or partially submerged in water, e.g. due to backwater, flooding
or heavy rain, and liquid could therefore penetrate it, take the station out of operation.
Only qualified personnel may dry the station and check it for safe operation. Moisture or
water inside the station may cause an electric shock.
Charging cable as a tripping hazard
Make sure that the charging cable does not block an escape route or poses a tripping hazard.
The cable could block the way out and cause injuries.
Furthermore, in the event of a fall, the cable may be abruptly torn out of the socket and
cause damage to the vehicle and the charging station.
