Charging procedure
The EVSE 5X1 /5X3 is engineered for the fastest possible charge of your vehicle ac-
cording to IEC 61851-1, Mode 3. The actual charging time depends on the battery fitted
to your vehicle as well as on the energy currently remaining in the vehicle. For these
reasons it is not possible to make a reliable prediction of the charging time: You will dis-
cover its actual value in practice and derive your personal charging routine accordingly.
Please follow the following steps to charge your vehicle:
1. Park your vehicle so that the charging socket can be easily reached with the charg-
ing connector: The charging cable must not be under any strain during the charging
procedure!
2. Open the charging socket on the vehicle.
3. Check the two indicator LEDs on the top part of the EVSE 5X1 / 5X3: When the
Wallbox is ready for operation, the green LED indicator will flash briefly every 5
seconds, while the blue LED will be not be illuminated.
4. Remove the charging connector from its compartment
by lifting it slightly by the handle
and pulling it down-
ward
.
5. Plug the charging connector into the socket completely:
The charging process will only start when the two signal-
ing pins in the charging connector will each have sent
feedback regarding a safe connection.
The green LED will be illuminated continuously while the
connection between Wallbox and vehicle is being estab-
lished. When the charging procedure begins, the green LED
will be extinguished and the blue LED will be illuminated
continuously. Charging is completed when the blue LED is
flashing.
PLEASE NOTE:
Should there have been a malfunction during or after the charging pro-
cedure, this will be shown by the indicator LEDs. The following chapter
describes how you can identify operational states and errors and which
measures will become necessary.
Now unplug the charging connector from the charging socket on the vehicle and re-
place it in the compartment on the housing of the EVSE 5X1 / 5X3 by inserting the plug
into the compartment and slightly lowering the handle.
