2.6 Security information

Cleaning
Protect the environment by using biodegradable cleaning agents to clean the surfaces. Clean
the surfaces of the charging station with a damp cloth.
Do not use steam jets or water jets for cleaning, as they may cause moisture to infiltrate the
charging station. Moisture inside the charging station poses a risk of electric shock.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in hazardous situations that could cause death
or serious injury.
2.6 Security information
Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support
secure operation of plants, systems, machines, and networks.
In order to protect plants, systems, machines, and networks against cyber threats, it is
necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial
security concept. Siemens' products and solutions constitute one element of such a concept.
Operators of the charging station are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to their
plants, systems, machines, and networks. Such systems, machines and components should
only be connected to an enterprise network or the internet if and insofar such a connection is
necessary, and only when appropriate safety measures (e.g. firewalls and/or network
segmentation) are in place.
Additional information on industrial safety measures can be found under
(https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity).
Siemens' products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more
secure. Siemens strongly recommends applying product updates as soon as they are available
and using the latest product versions. Use of product versions that are no longer supported,
and failure to apply latest updates may increase customer's exposure to cyber threats.

Password
Assign a secure password during commissioning to protect the charging station against
unauthorized access.
When choosing a password, follow the current recommendations on security in information
technology.
