•sufficient protection against splashing water and/or foreign objects is obviously no longer evident,
•there is functional or visible damage to the charging socket or external charging cable
•or the wallbox does not function properly or has been otherwise damaged.
DANGER!
Should you detect damage to the housing, charging socket or charging cable, you must take the wallbox out of operation immediately via the upstream fuse(s) in your domestic power distribution box: No further use of the wallbox is permitted in this case! Please contact your local Mercedes-Benz technical support!
To operate your wallbox, please note these instructions:
•The device must always be connected to the protective earth conductor of your electricity supply. The protective earth connection will be made and checked by the installing contractor. After installation, only qualified specialist electrical contractors may make changes.
•The wallbox should not be installed in areas of high pedestrian traffic. Installation along thoroughfares and marked escape routes should be especially avoided.
•When there is no charging procedure under way, the charging cable should always be unplugged and stored (model variants with charging socket) or inserted into the compartment on the side of the wallbox (model variants with fixed charging cable) to avoid trip hazards.
•Ensure that the rated voltage and rated current of the device comply with the parameters of your local electricity grid and that the rated output is not exceeded during the charging procedure.
•At all times comply with local safety regulations for the country in which you operate the wallbox.
•To disconnect the wallbox completely from the power grid, the power supply must be interrupted using the upstream fuse(s) and the external residual current circuit breaker (RCCB).
•Never operate the wallbox in a confined space. In particular, you must ensure that the vehicle can be parked at a suitable distance from the wallbox and connected without any strain on the charging cable.
•A parking spot for the vehicle must be planned for in the area in front of the wallbox. The distance between vehicle and wallbox should be at least 50 cm and no more than 5 m.
•Make sure that the cover of the wallbox housing is always closed and locked when in use. Keep the triangular key for unlocking the door in a place that is only accessible to authorized users.
•Under no circumstances remove the protective cover for electronic components located behind the housing cover of the wallbox.
•You must not under any circumstances make any changes to the housing or the internal wiring of the wallbox: Any disregard of this instruction represents a safety risk, fundamentally breaches the guarantee provisions and may void the warranty with immediate effect.
•Only have qualified, specialist personnel install and/or repair the device. No parts to be maintained by the user are located inside the device.
