4. Gently Insert:

• Insert the charging plug firmly but gently into the charging port. Use steady pressure without forcing it.

5. Locking Mechanism:

• If applicable, listen for any locking mechanisms or click sounds that indicate the plug is securely in place. Some systems may have an automatic locking feature.

6. Check Charging Status:

• Confirm on the vehicle dashboard or the charging station display that the charging process has initiated.

Removing the Charging Plug:

1. Charging Completion:

3. Press Release Button (If Applicable):

• If the charging plug has a release button, press it to disengage any locking mechanisms.

4. Hold the Plug Firmly:

• Grasp the charging plug firmly but avoid pulling excessively on the charging cable. Hold the plug close to the charging port to maintain control.

6. Inspect for Damage:

• After removal, inspect the charging plug for any signs of damage or wear.

7. Secure the Plug:

Remember to follow any specific instructions provided by the vehicle manufacturer or the charging station, as different models may have variations in the charging process. Always prioritize safety and handle the charging plug and cable with care to prevent damage.
