How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Frequent reboots can indicate an underlying electrical issue; investigate promptly.

  • Step 1 – Check for patterns: Note whether reboots occur at high load, high temperature, or when other appliances switch on.
  • Step 2 – Tighten supply connections (electrician): Have an electrician check and tighten all supply terminations in the consumer unit and charger.
  • Step 3 – Ventilation: Ensure the charger is not exposed to direct sunlight or enclosed spaces that cause overheating.
  • Step 4 – Firmware update: Update to the latest firmware to address potential software‑related resets.
  • Step 5 – PCB replacement: If reboots persist, the internal power supply or control PCB may be defective and should be replaced.
