Page 3: Safety
SAFETY SAFETY ANNOUNCEMENTS Before operating the EV charger, read the instructions and precautions carefully to reduce the risk of accidents. The “caution, warning, hazard” notices in the product and product manual do not represent all safety concerns to be observed and are only intended to supplement the various operational safety precautions. In carrying out the company’s product and equipment operations, you must comply with relevant industry safety norms and strictly abide by these instructions to provide the appropriate equipment precautions and special safety instructions... - Page 4 SAFETY ELECTRICAL SAFETY HIGH VOLTAGE Some components of the power system operate with high voltage. Direct or indirect contact with these components through non-insulated protective material poses a fatal hazard. The installation of AC power supply equipment must comply with safety regulations, and personnel carrying out the installation of AC equipment must be qualified in high voltage AC-power operation.
- Page 5 SAFETY SHORT CIRCUITS It is strictly prohibited to short-circuit the power supply system to the positive and negative poles or to short the non-ground pole to ground during operation. Short circuits can cause equipment to burn and pose a personal safety hazard. In addition, the polarity of the cables and interface terminals must be strictly checked when carrying out live work.

Page 12: Installation
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS The operating voltage and current inside the charging system are high, and the following regulations should be observed at all times to ensure personal safety: 1. Charging systems must only be installed by personnel who have been trained in, and have sufficient knowledge of, the charging system. -
Page 13: Network Connectivity Requirements
INSTALLATION NETWORK CONNECTIVITY REQUIREMENTS The recommended way to connect to the network is to access 4G wireless communication or a Wi-Fi module integrated in the charger. A SIM card meeting local networking requirements is required. Make sure the local signal strength is strong and stable; otherwise a signal amplifier must be installed. If there is no local 3G/4G communication signal, a standard wired internet connection is available. -

Page 16: Site Space Requirements
INSTALLATION SITE SPACE REQUIREMENTS Adequate installation space should be reserved to ensure safe and reliable operation, ventilation and maintenance of the equipment. Installation requires 1900 x 1200 mm of space, calculated as follows: Product size: 900mm(L) X 600mm(W). Front reserved spacing ≥500mm to ensure the front door open/close operation is normal and all related operations are unhindered. - Page 17 INSTALLATION FOUNDATION INSTRUCTIONS A dedicated foundation is not necessary when the equipment is installed indoors or in higher and drier sites, but the ground level plan error per square meter must not exceed ±1.5mm, and the ground strength level of the installation position must not be less than C30.
