Before Installation
Safety Check
-Check the exterior packaging for
signs of mishandling and ensure the
equipment was not damaged during
shipping.
-Before connecting the product to the
power supply, check that the power
supply voltage and current rating
corresponds with the power supply
details shown on the product rating
label.
WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
Disconnect the power supply before installing
or repairing the charge point. Disconnect the
power supply before installing or repairing the
charge point. Exposure to live wires may result
in physical injury or damage to the power
supply system and the charge point.
CAUTION: RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY
Keep all packing materials away from
children. These materials present a risk of
injury (e.g. suffocation).
Do not use extension cords with this
equipment.
THE CHARGING STATION MUST BE
INSTALLED ONLY BY A LICENSED
ELECTRICIAN IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
PROVISIONS OF THE LOCAL INDUSTRY
CONSTRUCTIN AND SHOULD COMPLY
WITH NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODES AND
STANDARDS.
Before installing the charge point, make sure
you have read all instructions in this guide
and fully understand its contents.

Set Operating Current
To set the operating current, configure SW1, SW2, SW3, SW4 from DIP switch
If the Lucid Connected Home Charging Station is installed on a breaker smaller than 100A, the dip
switches support de-rating the station to match said breaker. This same table below can also be
found on a sticker inside the station for ease of use.

Connecting your Station to the Internet
Do the following before starting to connect
your station to the internet, as the steps
following will need to be completed within 15
minutes:
-Lucid Connected Home Charging
Station (powered off)
-Laptop computer nearby
-Station's Serial #
-Station's IP address:
For Wifi: 192.168.5.1
For Ethernet: 192.168.1.10
-User's preferred WiFi network &
Password
-User's Lucid ID (email address)
1. Power on the Lucid Connected Home
Charging Station via the breaker. Wait
120 seconds for the unit to begin
broadcasting its SSID.
Note: This SSID will only be broadcasted
for 15 minutes.
2. Using a laptop computer, seek its SSID,
matching the serial # of the unit, a 10-
digit number found on the label on the
right side of the unit. (ex. 1234567890)
3. Once the laptop is connected to the
SSID of the charging station, open a
preferred web browser, and in the URL
window, enter the station's IP address:
192.168.5.1
Note: The browser may prompt a
warning, accept, and proceed.
4. This will then load the Lucid web
configurator login screen. Enter the
same 10-digit serial # of the charging
station as the Password, the same as
the SSID.
5. It is recommended to change this
Password by selecting Maintenance in
the top right corner. Select Password,
and then enter the new Password. Click
Save. You will need to log in with the
new Password.
After signing in with the updated Password:
1. To connect the Lucid Connected Home
Charging Station to the home network
via WiFi, select Setup and then WiFi.
On this screen, enter the preferred
SSID [home network's WiFi name] and
associated Password, then click Apply.
Other options can typically be on their
default settings.
2. If connecting via Ethernet, select Setup,
then the Ethernet tab.
If Ethernet connection is established
successfully, a valid IP (192.168.1.10) will
be shown. Other options can be default
settings.
3. Select the Cloud tab under Setup, and
ensure Lucid Cloud is selected. The
Customer’s Lucid ID is displayed. Click
Apply.
Note: This must be the same Lucid ID
email address that the customer used
to create their Lucid account for the
vehicle and mobile app.
4. If you cannot correctly follow the
steps within the 15 minute window, the
process will need to be restarted for the
SSID to be broadcasted again. Cycling
the power via the breaker will achieve
this restart.

Additional Power-On Operations
Authorization (For LTE Models only)
Before charging an electric vehicle, the LTE
model includes an RFID reader, which must
be authorized to begin the charging session.
This RFID reader is available on the right
side of the unit, showing the RFID symbol for
scanning.
Auto Restart
When a charging session is interrupted due to
a temporary error condition, the charge point
will automatically restart charging when the
cause of the temporary error condition returns
to normal. Indicator lights will remain flashing
RED until the error condition is resolved.
-Temporary error conditions:
○Over Current
○Over Voltage
○Under Voltage
○Over Temperature
-For over current conditions: The
charging session will stop while Over
Current occurs. After 30 seconds of
recovery from Over Current, the charge
point will automatically restart charging
three times.
Power Outage Recovery
Please allow up to 15 minutes after power
resumes before the station will be ready
for charging. The delay is designed to avoid
impacting the utility grid when multiple charge
points are in the same area attempting to
resume charging simultaneously.
