ensures that the charging connector does
not receive current until it is plugged in to
the vehicle's charging connector.
Self-check
When the charging cable is plugged into the
electrical socket, the protective device auto-
matically performs a self-test. During this
check, all warning and indicator lamps turn
on briefly and go out one after the other.
Upon completion, the operational status at
that time is displayed.

Temperature control
The charging cable temperature control
switches on when the charging cable over-
heats, such as when it has been stored in a
luggage compartment exposed to high tem-
peratures or strong sunlight.
When the charging process is interrupted,
the status indicator that is lit up at the time
switches off and one of the indicator lamps
starts slowly flashing green. Warning lamp
