1-2. Charging

Power sources that can be used

An external power source that fulfills the following criteria is nec-
essary for charging this vehicle. Confirm this before charging.
 Power sources
 Connect to an AC 220 V - 240 V socket with a Residual Cur-
rent Circuit-Breaker (RCCB) and a circuit breaker. Use of a
13A individual circuit is strongly recommended to ensure
charging cable will operate properly.
 We strongly recommend that you use an exclusive connection
from the junction box for charging.
If you connect on a socket that is on a shared circuit, and
other electrical appliances are used on other sockets on the
same circuit, then the circuit breaker might trip.
 Ensure that the junction box is equipped with a Residual Cur-
rent Circuit-Breaker (RCCB). If it is not, have one installed by
a duly qualified professional.
 When charging outdoors, make sure to connect to a rain-tight
socket that is certified for outdoor use.
Checking Residual Current Circuit-Breaker (RCCB) operation
before its use is recommended.
 Check whether there are any local EV-charging regulations in
place, and adhere to them.
