TROUBLESHOOTING
Please refer to this Troubleshooting Guide for possible solutions to common errors
or difficulties with charging your vehicle using your portable charger.
Do not attempt to repair or service the charger yourself.
NOTE
There are no user serviceable parts inside.
A RED TROUBLE indicator may be triggered by several sources, including the
charger, the utility service, or the vehicle. See troubleshooting tips below.
The RED TROUBLE indicator turns on when the charger detects an error whether
it is connected to your vehicle or not. With the RED TROUBLE Indicator on, the
charger will not deliver power to the vehicle. The error must be corrected before
charging begins or resumes.
