If the cable should become stuck in the charging station it is recommended to follow the steps below: 
 

 

Firmly push the cable into the charging station. In most instances this should be sufficient to release 
the lock from the connector. You may now attempt to remove the cable from the charging station. 

 

In  the  event  the  above  does  not  release  the  connector,  firmly  push  the  cable  into  the  charging 

station once again. Disconnect then reconnect the power by switching the RCBO 

or 

reconnect and 

then disconnect the electric vehicle. 

 

The internal locking mechanism should now have released and the cable should have become freed.  
In the event that this does not occur repeat the above process ensuring you firmly push the cable 
fully into the charging station socket each time. 

 

BE AWARE

 in the event of a power outage or switching off of the internal RCBO during charging, the 

charge  will  stop.  This  may  cause  the  interconnecting  cable  to  remain  locked  to  the  charging  station, 
preventing its removal until power to the unit is re-established.
