•To reduce the risk of fire, re lacement fuses should be of the same ty e and rating.
•Risk of Ex losion. This equi ment has internal arcing or s arking arts which should not be
ex osed to flammable va ors. It should not be located in a recessed area or below floor level
•This device is intended only for charging vehicles not requiring ventilation during charging
•The Electric Vehicle Su ly Equi ment (EVSE) must be connected to a centrally grounded
system. The ground conductor entering the EVSE must be connected to the equi ment
grounding lug inside the charger. This should be run with circuit conductors and connected to
the equi ment grounding bar or lead on the EVSE. Connections to the EVSE are the
res onsibility of the installer and urchaser, not GE and must com ly with all a licable
electrical codes and ordinances.
•Risk of electric shock. Do not remove cover or attem t to o en the enclosure. No user
serviceable arts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service ersonnel.
1.2 FCC Requirements
Note: This equi ment has been tested and found to com ly with the limits for a Class A digital
device, ursuant to art 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to rovide reasonable
rotection against harmful interference when the equi ment is o erated in a commercial
environment. This equi ment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. O eration of this equi ment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own ex ense.
