• Ensure that the integrated or external (depending on model variant) FI residual cur-
rent circuit breaker (RCCB) is switched on.
• Ensure that the Wallbox has been installed according to the instructions in this man-
ual: Check especially that there is free access to the Wallbox, that it is not exposed
to direct sunlight or rain and that the electric vehicle can be connected without any
strain or other encumbrance on the charging cable.
• Ensure that the housing cover shield is always locked during normal operation.
• Ensure that the charging cable is not twisted and check that cable, connector and
housing do not show any observable damage.
Normal operation
The fixed charging cable leaves the Wallbox on the left lower side of the housing. A
matching compartment for the charging connector is provided on the right side of the
housing: A pin inside the compartment, onto which the connector is hooked, serves
to secure it in place.
DANGER!
Except during charging procedures, the charging connector must always
be properly stored and thereby secured in its compartment: Never leave
the connector lying out in the open or plugged into the vehicle after charg-
ing is complete.
You must under no circumstances use excessive force when removing the charging
connector from its compartment or replacing it: If the pin inside the compartment is
damaged or breaks off, the charging connector can no longer be stored properly. In
this case you must under no circumstances continue to operate the Wallbox! Please
contact your local distributor from whom you have purchased the Wallbox.
The fixed charging cable of the EVSE 5X1 / 5X3 is ca. 5 meters in length and thus en-
ables a flexible connection with the vehicle. Unless charging, you should always roll
the cable up into a compact shape and store it in a way that prevents it from being
damaged by external mechanical forces. Although the cable and connector are de-
signed to withstand high mechanical stresses, you should not drive your vehicle over
the cable and/or the connector. Also ensure that the charging cable is not kinked at the
housing outlet and that there is no excessive strain on the cable and/or the housing.
DANGER!
If the cable, the charging connector and/or the housing have suffered
mechanical damage or show visible deformities, you must under no cir-
cumstances continue to operate the Wallbox.
Please contact your local distributor from whom you have purchased the
Wallbox.
