Important limits

  • Use an electrician-verified circuit and never set a limit above what the outlet, wiring, cable or charging equipment supports.
  • Turning the current-limiting function off clears its stored limit, so a new value must be entered when it is re-enabled.
If it does not work

Quick checks.

  • ✓If the vehicle charges immediately, confirm the schedule switch is on and that the session is AC rather than DC.
  • ✓If actual current is below the chosen limit, the station, cable or electrical supply may be imposing a lower limit.
