4.2 Кубатка туташуу
The charger supports both Level 1 (110V) and Level 2 (240V) charging. It comes with a NEMA 6-20 plug and a NEMA 5-15P to 6-20R adapter cord for standard household outlets.
- For Level 2 Charging (240V): Plug the charger's NEMA 6-20 plug directly into a compatible NEMA 6-20R 240V outlet. Ensure the circuit can handle the selected ampток күчү (16А чейин).
- For Level 1 Charging (110V): Attach the NEMA 5-15P to 6-20R adapter cord to the charger's NEMA 6-20 plug. Then, plug the NEMA 5-15P end into a standard 110V household outlet. Ensure the circuit can handle the selected amperage (up to 16A, typically 8A or 10A for standard 15A household circuits).
IMPORTANT: Always verify your electrical circuit's capacity before selecting an amperage setting to prevent overloading and potential hazards.

5.2 Smart LED Screen Display
The charger features an LED screen that displays real-time charging information:
- Ampкарылык: Current charging rate (e.g., 16A).
- Ылдамдыгы: Charging speed in miles per hour (approximate).
- Киргизүү көлөмүtage: Учурдагы томtage from the power source (e.g., 110V or 240V).
- Кечигүү убактысы: Remaining time if delayed charging is active.
- Заряддоо практикалары: Indication of charging status.
- кВт.саат: Kilowatt-hours delivered during the current charging session.
5.3 Adjustable Current Settings
The charger allows you to adjust the charging current to match your vehicle's needs or the available circuit capacity. Press the 'A' button on the charger to cycle through the available amperage settings:
- 16A: Approximately 10-12 miles per hour of range.
- 13A: Approximately 8-10 miles per hour of range.
- 10A: Approximately 6-7 miles per hour of range.
- 8A: Approximately 5-6 miles per hour of range.
NOTE: Always ensure your electrical circuit can safely support the selected amperage. Lower amperage settings are recommended for Level 1 charging on standard household outlets.
