DANGER
Risk of electric shock from damaged devices
If a damaged device is used, people may be seriously injured or killed by electric shock.
- Do not use the device if it is damaged.
- Mark damaged device so that it is not used by other people.
- Have damage repaired immediately by an electrician.
- If necessary, have the device taken out of operation by an electrician.
Regular checking and maintenance work helps ensure trouble-free and safe operation of the wallbox and helps to extend its service life. Potential sources of error can therefore be detected at an early stage and hazards avoided. If damage to the wallbox is detected, it must be repaired immediately by an electrician.
- Daily or before each charge, check that the wallbox is ready for operation and has no external damage.
Examples of damage:
- Defective housing (e.g. severe deformations, cracks, fractures)
- Defective or missing components (e.g. protective elements)
- Illegible or missing safety stickers.
Maintenance intervals
INFO
The following activities may only be carried out by an electrician.
Select the maintenance intervals taking account of the following aspects:
- Age and condition of the wallbox
- Environmental influences
- Demands
- Latest test protocols
Carry out maintenance at the following intervals at the very least:
Components | Maintenance work |
|---|---|
Six-monthly | |
Electrical switching and safety devices | Check residual current devices, line circuit breakers, etc. for visual defects. |
Check the function of residual current devices. | |
Housing outside | Check wallbox for defects and damage. |
Check wallbox for cleanliness. Clean wallbox if necessary. | |
Charging cable | Check charging cable for defects and damage (e.g. kinks, cracks). |
Repeat measurements and tests according to the corresponding valid national regulations (e.g. VDE 0701/702 in Germany). | |
LED display panel | Check that LED display panel is working properly and legible. Restart wallbox (the LEDs light up one after the other during a restart). |
Components | Maintenance work |
|---|---|
Annually | |
Terminals | Check terminals of the supply cable. |
Wallbox | Repeat measurements and tests according to IEC 60364-6 and the corresponding valid national regulations (e.g. DIN VDE 0105-100 in Germany). |
- Correctly remedy any damage to the wallbox.
- Ensure adequate documentation of maintenance.
- If necessary, contact the service department.
Cleaning
The wallbox can be cleaned dry or damp, depending on the operating conditions and dirt levels. Cleaning is carried out exclusively from the outside.
DANGER
Risk of electric shock from damaged devices
The device contains electrical components that are under high voltage. If handled improperly, especially if moisture is involved and the housing is open, people may be seriously injured by electric shock.
Incorrect cleaning can cause damage to the housing or components.
- Avoid running water and make sure that water does not come into contact with live parts.
- Do not use high-pressure cleaning equipment.
- Only use tools (e.g. brushes, cleaning agents) that are suitable for plastic surfaces.
- Do not use aggressive cleaning agents or chemicals.
Procedure:
- Remove coarse dust and dirt with a hand brush with soft bristles.
- If necessary, dampen a clean cloth suitable for plastic surfaces with water and wipe the wallbox thoroughly.
- Only clean the charging cable when it is unplugged and with the protective cap on.
