CHARGE CABLE WRAP GUIDELINES

The EV enclosure body is sculpted to allow the charge cable to be wrapped around it for
convenient storage as well as to keep the bulk of the cable off of the ground and out of
the way. As the charge cable is comprised of a number of wires, coiling the charge cable
too tightly around the EV enclosure will result in the charge cable feeling warmer to the
touch than would ordinarily be the case.
To minimize this effect, it is recommended that the charge cable be loosely draped
around the EV enclosure body with larger loops. This will also permit greater
convenience in "pulling off" additional loops if a longer charge cable reach is desired.
