Charging Dock Safety Features

WARNING

If, at any time, you feel the equipment to be unsafe, shut off the

electricity at the Circuit Breaker or disconnect switch (if present)

and immediately contact Customer Support. DO NOT use your

Charging Dock until the problem can be

identified and corrected.

Here is an example of a Power Distribution Panel Circuit Breaker.

Figure 1: Sample 240Volt Circuit Breaker

The Charging Dock is designed for a permanently wired installation indoors (in a garage) or

outdoors (in a carport or on a pedestal). The Charging Dock utilizes a 208

- 240 Volt AC single-phase electricity source to provide electricity to the vehicle’s charging

system. The Charging Dock is designed with the safety of the end user as the highest priority

and includes the following convenient safety features to protect against the risk of electric shock.

•The Charging Dock is designed with a permanent grounding system for personal safety

•The Charging Dock is equipped with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) reaction

system to protect against electric shock. If the Charging Dock detects output current flowing

through an incorrect path to ground, the Charging Dock will shut off power to the output

cable and illuminate the TROUBLE indicator.

•The Charging Dock enclosure and cable assembly are completely insulated (no exposed

live parts) to protect against electric shock.

•The Charging Dock connector and the vehicle receptacle are designed to prevent arcing and

to not expose the user to live power if the cable is disconnected while a charge cycle is in

progress

Additional Safety Information

•When the Charging Dock connector is properly connected to the vehicle receptacle, the

vehicle propulsion system is disabled. The output cable has a safety break-away feature

in case the vehicle is moved or unintentionally rolls away from the parking location with

the cable connected to the vehicle. The safety break-away feature will allow output

cable separation from the Charging Dock if the output cable is yanked or pulled with

excessive force.

•The output cable should be coiled up on the hanger when not in use to minimize damage

to the cable and eliminate the possibility of tripping.

WARNING

If the output cable becomes separated from the Charging Dock,

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR THE CABLE YOURSELF.

Contact Customer Support at 1.888.833.2148 to arrange for service.

About your Charging Dock

The Charging Dock is not a battery charger, but rather an easy-to-use home charging station. It supplies

208 - 240Volt AC power to your electric vehicle.

The Charging Dock is designed to control and monitor energy delivery from the residence’s electrical

service wiring to your electric vehicle. The vehicle monitors current and battery state of charge to

ensure the quickest, safest transfer of power to recharge the vehicle propulsion battery.
