2. Introduction
Congratulations with the purchase of your ChargeArm.
The ChargeArm can be installed as a freestanding or wall mounted retractable arm for your EV
charging cable. This user manual covers both versions of the ChargeArm.
The charge box and charge cable are not included with the ChargeArm. This document only
describes the use of the ChargeArm, not the charge box.
This document is intended for the ChargeArm user. The installation of the ChargeArm must be
executed by a trained professional. The installation is described in the documents: Installation
manual ChargeArm Foundation Screw and Installation Manual ChargeArm Wall Mount .
The ChargeArm is intended to guide your charging cable over an area, such as a pavement, in a
safe and user friendly manner. Should the ChargeArm extend over public domain, please check
with you local authorities if this is permitted.
Your installer is obligated to install the ChargeArm in combination with a charge box and
charging cable in accordance with local legislation. If the installation is not executed according to
the installation manual and local legislation the warranty of the ChargeArm will be deemed null
and void.
ChargeArm b.v. (a Limited company in The Netherlands) is not responsible for any damage that
may occur as a result of incorrect installation or use of the ChargeArm.
The ChargeArm allows for the mounting of many types of charge boxes to the upright of the
ChargeArm in a variety of ways. In this document a specific charge box is mounted to the rear of
freestanding ChargeArm. This configuration is only explanatory and the operation should be
identical for other mounting options.

3. Safety
-Only extend the ChargeArm when charging your vehicle. Do not leave it extended when
not in use.
-Do not extend or retract the arm of the ChargeArm whilst bystanders or objects are
within the movement zone of the ChargeArm.
-Children or inexperienced users should not operate the ChargeArm. When in doubt
block the movement of the ChargeArm with the optional ChargeArm lock (see 7, part
1577.600).
-Always study the user manual before instigating maintenance or repairs to the
ChargeArm.
-Only use components that have been supplied with the ChargeArm for operating the
ChargeArm.
-Do not alter the construction of the ChargeArm and do not use the ChargeArm for
functions other than a retractable EV charging cable arm, for example as a support for a
sun shade.
-Do not temporarily hang objects on the ChargeArm.
-Do not remove or loosen screws or bolts pertaining to the ChargeArm.
-Always extend and retract the ChargeArm in the manner described in chapter 4 so as to
avoid fingers, hands or clothing being trapped in the ChargeArm structure.
-Do not use the ChargeArm when it is damaged.
-While extending the arm, only pull the charge cable gently in the direction of the arm
movement and not sideways. A sideways movement can damage the mechanism or arm
and may lead to dangerous situations.
-When the arm is extended do not pull the cable sideways. This could damage the
mechanism or arm and also lead to dangerous situations.
-Do not try to hang from the ChargeArm or pull the Charging Cable harshly downwards.
-Do not use the ChargeArm during heavy storms, when it is snowing or there is freezing
rain. The formation of ice on the ChargeArm may damage the product or harm the user.
-Unqualified installation, maintenance or operation can damage the ChargeArm or cause
harm. This product has a CE marking attached to it. Do not remove this type plate. State
the information on the type plate when you contact your installer or ChargeArm
specialist.
-Make sure the charging connector is in a holder when not in use. This holder is often
part of the charging box or can be purchased as a separate product.

-Check on a regular basis if greenery is blocking the movement of the arm. Trim away
vegetation if necessary. Do not use a strimmer near the base of the ChargeArm as it may
damage the charging cable.

4. Use
This document describes a freestanding ChargeArm with a charge box mounted to the rear of
the upright. This charge box has a holding position for the charging connector when it is not in
use. The ChargeArm can be installed in multiple ways, such as the wall mounted version, but in
general the manner of use will be the same.
1. Release the Charge cable:
-Depending on your installation this can be from the charge box or
from a separate connector holder mounted somewhere else.
2. Pull out the arm:
-Be careful that no one is standing in
between you and the ChargeArm. (See 3,
Safety of movement zone for the arm)
-Pull the cable gently with one hand whilst
holding the cable connector in your other
hand.

8. Move the arm to the fully closed position:

in a constant & fluid
movement. If you
stop the gas lift will
push the arm back
outwards.
-Do not grip around
the arm so as to
ensure that your
fingers do not
become trapped in
the mechanism.
