HOW TO USE RAY
Read Safety precautions first
Charging current
You should always have good knowledge about the electrical installation
before you start charging to make sure the installation handles the load
correctly.
Charging with high current requires that the outlet is rated for the load
continuously and that the cable dimensions between the electric central and
the outlet is of adequate size. You should also make sure that the installation
and outlet is in good shape and can handle the continuous load.
If you are uncertain about the quality or capacity of the electrical installation
consult your certified electrician.
See safety precautions for more information.
To start charging
1. Connect RAY to an outlet socket.
2. RAY will start and indicate the selected charging current on the display.
3. Make sure the RAY cable is not creating a coil.
4. Select the desired charging current by manoeuvring the touch sensors.
Settings (gear-wheel) and then adjust current with the up/down arrows
and end with OK (green check).
5. Insert the RAY into the EV. Charging starts automatically. The display
will begin to show a charging graphic.
To stop charging
To prevent arching and wear on plugs and outlet, the order of removal is
important. The following procedure minimizes the risk of arching.
1. Unlock your car
2. Remove Ray from your car
3. Remove the socket plug from the outlet.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Warning
Due to mishandling a dangerous condition might occur such as electric shock
or fire
- Before you connect the RAY make sure the correct charging current is
selected. You must ensure that the outlet and circuit has enough current
capacity to charge your vehicle safely. The outlet and circuit must be earthed
and protected by a dedicated circuit breaker (max 16A) or fuse (max 16A). If in
any doubt, consult a qualified electrician. Overloading an outlet may result in
fire.
- Do not use an extension cord or adapter.
- Always connect the RAY to a RCD protected outlet. The RAY is equipped with
a RCD to protect the cable, connector and car from ground faults, but always
use a RCD protected outlet for your personal safety.
- Do not disassemble or try to repair. Contact vendor if service is required.
- Stop using the RAY if a failure or abnormality occurs or the cable is damaged.
- Stop using the RAY if the display shows any faults.
- Stop using the RAY if it gets very hot. The RAY will get warm during charging,
this is normal.
- Keep the plug dry and take appropriate care when operating in wet
conditions.
- Do not touch the electric terminals of the RAY.
- Do not use the RAY if any parts are broken, worn, cracked, and open or show
any indication of damage. Contact vendor if you are uncertain if it is safe to use
your RAY.
- Not for use by children.
- Ensure the electrical supply is 220-240V 50/60Hz.
- Handle the RAY with care; do not drop and do not pull the cable strongly.
- Ensure that the RAY is placed to avoid submersion in water.
- Do not hang the RAY in the cable.
Caution
Parts could be damaged due to mishandling
- Prevent foreign matter from getting into the terminal parts of the RAY.
- Avoid stepping on, folding, driving over, or putting tight kinks in the cable.
- Avoid using the RAY during electrical storms or thunderstorms.
- Do not place heavy objects on the RAY.
- When charging, make sure the RAY is not covered by objects preventing
cooling of the RAY.
- Do not drop the RAY.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Warning symbols on the display
Relay weld
Detection of one or more welded relays in
the In-Cable-Control-Box. If problem is
persistent, contact vendor. Do not touch
the terminals of the EV Connector.
Ground fault
The RCD has tripped. This indicates a ground
fault in the car. Reset Ray by disconnecting
power supply. Examine connected car for
ground fault.
Unknown error
An uncategorized error has occurred. This
includes car requesting ventilation while
charging, which is not supported.
Communication
error
The communication between the EV
Connector and the In-Cable-Control-Box is
not working properly. Check cable for
damages and reset Ray by disconnecting
power supply.
High
Normalized
The temperature sensor in the wall plug has
detected a high temperature. Current will
be decreased while charging and
thermometer will be shown as normalized
on the screen until power is removed.
