Selecting the installation lo-
cation
Electric shock, fire
DANGER
Improper use of the charger or non-compliance with
the safety instructions may result in short circuits,
electric shocks, explosions, fire or burns.
e
Do not install the basic wall mount in potentially
explosive atmospheres.
e
To reduce the risk of explosion - particularly in
garages - make sure that the control unit is
located at least 50 cm above the floor during
charging.
e
Observe the locally applicable electrical installa-
tion regulations, fire protection measures, acci-
dent prevention regulations and escape routes.
The basic wall mount is designed for indoor and out-
door installation.
The following criteria must be considered when se-
lecting a suitable installation location:
–
Install the electrical socket and basic wall mount
preferably in a covered area protected against
direct sunlight and rain (e.g. in a garage).
–
Do not spray the basic wall mount directly with
water (e.g. high-pressure cleaning equipment or
garden hoses)
–
Do not install the basic wall mount under sus-
pended or hanging objects.
–
Do not install the basic wall mount in stables,
livestock buildings or locations where ammonia
gases occur.
–
Install the basic wall mount on a smooth surface.
–
In order to ensure secure fastening, check the
condition of the wall before installing.
–
Install the basic wall mount so that it is not near
pathways and the charging cables do not cross
any pathways.
–
Install the basic wall mount so that the distance
between the plug and the socket does not ex-
ceed the length of the available supply cable.
–
Install the electrical socket as close as possible
to the preferred vehicle parking position. Take
the orientation of the vehicle into account.
–
The distance of the electrical socket from the
floor and ceiling should be selected in compli-
ance with national regulations and standards so
that comfortable use is ensured.
