Safety during operation and charging
The following description warns of additional hazards that must be considered when
operating the charging station. Act according to the specified operating instructions, and
observe the valid regional standards and regulations. Failure to follow safety instructions may
result in hazardous situations that could cause death or serious injury.
Risk of electric shock and fire
Touching live parts may cause electric shock or even death! Defective connectors or cables
may cause fire.
• Do not kink or squeeze the charging cable. Do not draw the charging cable over sharp
edges or hot surfaces.
• Do not use the charging station if dangerous damage or tampering is visible. Inform the
operator and keep yourself and other persons away from the charging station.
• Grip the power plug to pull the charging cable out of the socket. Do not grip by the cable
itself.
• Never touch the mains plug with wet hands.
• Do not connect or disconnect any cables during a thunderstorm.
Risk of overheating and fire
Using unauthorized accessories increases the risk of fire due to overheating.
• Only use a charging cable approved for the vehicle.
• Do not use an extension to connect the charging station to the vehicle.
• Adapter and adapter cable are not permitted.
High currents during charging can cause frequently used connectors or damaged charging
cables to heat up to extreme levels.
Hot surfaces on plugs or cables can cause serious injury and fire.
• Check the charging cable for damage before each use.
• Always avoid direct contact with hot objects or parts of the enclosure.
• Do not allow children to play on the system or with the charging cable.
Risk of accident
Ensure that the charging cable does not block any escape route or constitute a tripping
hazard. In this case, the cable can become an obstacle that can lead to injuries. The cable
could also be ripped out from the anchoring and cause damage to the vehicle or the charging
station.
