10. Functions
10.1. Basic function
The JUICE BOOSTER 2 is used for recharging electric vehicles. Using the corresponding
adapters, it is a fully-fledged portable charging station and also a charging cable to connect to
public charging stations and wallboxes.
The JUICE BOOSTER 2 detects the mains adapter connected and thus the maximum permitted
charging intensity. As soon as the cable is connected to an appropriate, functional outlet and then
to the vehicle, and if the vehicle is ready to be charged, the charging process begins
automatically.
For safety reasons, the JUICE BOOSTER 2 prevents any higher charging intensity from being set.
The charge intensity can be reduced using the push button however. The JUICE BOOSTER 2
ignores any button presses during the charging process. This prevents unauthorised parties
interrupting the charging process or changing the current.
Since, when locked, the vehicle does not release the connector even if charging is interrupted,
unauthorised parties are unable to unplug the vehicle or steal the JUICE BOOSTER 2.
To protect adapters connected using the JUICE CONNECTOR safety connector from theft, they
can be locked using the safety lock which is available separately. It makes disconnection and
removal impossible.
10.2. Using type 2/type3c charging stations with locking mechanism
The connector is locked onto the vehicle and the charging station before the charging process
begins.
Unlocking is only possible when the charging process is cancelled by means of a corresponding
command in the electric car or possibly via app control of the vehicle. The connector can then be
removed from the socket and the type 2 connector can be removed from the vehicle.
10.3. Use of domestic and industrial power sockets (without locking)
The charging process begins automatically as described in 13.2. The connection to the car is
locked. The connection can be unlocked with a corresponding command in the car, by cancelling
the charging process.
If unauthorised parties disconnect the cable from the outlet during the charging process, when it is
plugged in again, charging will resume automatically at the last detected, or manually lowered,
current.
