Charger leaks water from the bottom of the enclosure after rain or washing nearby surfaces.

Safety: Turn off power at the breaker immediately. Do not use the charger until it is completely dry and inspected. Water inside can cause shock or fire.

• External inspection: Look for cracks in the plastic housing, missing screws, or gaps around the cover and cable entry.
• Check mounting: Ensure the Emporia charger is mounted vertically and per the installation manual so that water sheds properly.
• Dry the unit (qualified person): With power off, remove the cover and gently dry any visible moisture with lint-free cloths. Allow the unit to air dry for at least 24 hours in a dry environment.
• Replace seals or housing: If gaskets are damaged or the housing is cracked, replace them with Emporia-approved parts. Apply appropriate weatherproofing around cable entries.
• After reassembly: Restore power and monitor for any abnormal behavior. If any fault codes or GFCI trips occur, the control board or other components may have been damaged and require replacement.
