WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
• Please read the documentation provided with the charging station to acquaint yourself
with the safety instructions and directions before you use the charging station.
• This charging station is designed and tested in accordance with international standards.
• Use this charging station for charging all mode 3 compatible electric vehicles only. Refer
to your vehicle owner’s manual to determine if your vehicle is suitable.
• This charging station must be used exclusively for the purpose intended.
• Do not operate the charging station if it or the charging cable is physically cracked, frayed,
other otherwise visibly damaged. Please consult the stations owner and/or an electrician right
away.
• This charging station contains no user serviceable parts. Please consult EV-Box or a

yourself.
• These directions for use are valid for different models of the charging station. It is possible
that a number of features are described that are not applicable to your charging station.
• This charging station may only be installed, maintained and repaired by qualified
personnel. Incompetent installation or repairs may result in danger to the user.
• Do not install a faulty charging station.
• For instructions on installation, see Chapter 4.
• The charging station is used in combination with a power source. Always switch off the
power supply before carrying out maintenance. The charging station contains no internal
components that can be maintained by the user. The “0n”/ ”Off” and “green” position of the
charging station's main switch does not guarantee that the system is disconnected from the
power source and does not safeguard against the voltage applied.
• Do not switch on the charging station if the cover is not in place.
• Ensure that the equipment is used under the correct operating conditions.
• Do not use explosive or readily flammable substances in the vicinity of the charging station.
• Persons unable to assess the dangers should not use the charging station.
• Do not direct powerful jets of water onto the charging station, and never operate with wet
hands.
• Ensure that the charging cable is
not kinked or jammed
!
• Make sure the charge cable is positioned so it will not be stepped on, driven over, tripped
over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
• Ensure that the charging cable cannot come into contact with heat sources.
• Always pull on the plug's hand grip, and never on the cable.
•
While charging the charging cable must be completely unwound and connected to the
vehicle without overlapping loops!
This is to avoid the risk of the charging cable overheating.
• In the event of danger and/or accidents, have the charging station disconnected
immediately by a competent person (electrician).
• Please carefully read our instructions and the vehicle instructions in your owner’s handbook
before charging your electric vehicle

Transport and storage
Ensure that the main power source has been disconnected when storing or transporting the
charging station. No liability can be accepted for damage during the transportation, if the
charging station is transported in anything other than the original packaging. Store the
charging station in a dry environment. The storage temperature must be between –25°C
and +60°C.

Product description
General
The EV-Box charging station (Figure 1) is compatible with all mode 3
electric vehicles. The charging station is meant for both indoor and
outdoor use. Usage of the charging station is allowed in an ambient
temperature between -25°C and +60°C. Charging station models with a
modem are connected to a central system for registration of the kWh
charged.
Online - Model with modem and BackOffice
The smart charging station is designed with a RFID card reader, a Kilowatt hour meter and a
GSM/GPS/GPRS modem. These components together provide for the authorization and
communication of the charging session procedure with the central system (BackOffice) for
processing and settlement of the transactions as required.
A GSM link with the charging
station is essential for the charging station to work properly.
However, a good link cannot
always be obtained in enclosed spaces, for instance a closed or underground car park. In
cases like this, the modem should be positioned outside the charging station along with the
GSM/GPS antenna and connected to the charging station. See Chapter 5.
Safety
There’s no power on the socket of the charging station as long as no plug is inserted and it
has not been started up by the RFID card. No protective residual current device or circuit
breaker is installed within the charging station. An external residual current device type A or
B as required by applicable regulation is necessary for installation. (See table 7, Technical
specifications).
Mode 3 Controller
The Type 2 socket is connected to the Mode 3 Controller and locking module in accordance
with IEC-61851. This means that the charging station is constantly checking for the presence
of a ground connection. In addition, the current is only switched on once the cable has been
connected to both the charging station and the vehicle and the presented RFID card is
authorized.

Operation
A charging session may be started by holding an authorized RFID card (Mifare Classic,
13.56Mhz) against the front of the charging station at the round surface showing a hand with
a RFID card (Figure 1). See also Chapter 3.

EV-Box warranties its equipment and software against errors and defects in materials and
workmanship for twenty four (24) months from the date of delivery, during which time it will
use its best efforts to repair the errors, if any. However, any such problems encountered out
of any causes that are not attributable to EV-Box, shall be for customer’s risk and account.

Control
Charging stations with RFID reader
Start charging
1. Use your charging cable to connect the EV-Box station to your vehicle.
2. Present your charging card (RFID Card) to the card reader.
The charging station will react with a tone. This indicates your card is being validated. It’s
possible that the LED ring will light up yellow for a couple of seconds.
3. The transaction will start automatically (LED ring is Blue).
Stop charging:
1. Present your charging card (RFID Card) to the card reader.
2. The charging session stops (LED ring will be GREEN)
3. Unplug the charge cable from the EV-Box and your vehicle.
Charging Stations without RFID charging card / modem
For charging stations that don’t operate with a RFID card, there will be either a key switch or
an AUTO-START. With the key switch you turn the key or push the button to start or stop the
charging session. To start charging on an AUTO-START charging station just plug the
charging cable into the vehicle. Simply unplug the charging cable from the vehicle to stop
the transaction.
