3.3 Two seconds until charging
As soon as a vehicle and the charging column are connected and the authorisation was successful, a black two-
second progress bar (from left to right) is shown in the display.

3.4 Charging process
After this time has elapsed, the display changes to the next representation and the time measurement begins.
During the entire charging process, the current information is shown on the display as in the following illustration.
Figure 13: Active charging process (example)
In the last line, in addition to the information text "Charging active", the large and small characters (arrow
symbols) are displayed. The number of characters indicates, here three on each side, that all three phases in
the charging line supply energy. If only two or only one character is displayed on each side, then
correspondingly fewer phases provide energy. This depends on the onboard charger installed in the vehicle.
Information about the installed onboard charger can be obtained from the car dealer or from the associated
instructions for the vehicle.
If no characters are displayed, then the vehicle's battery probably cannot be charged any further.
A few seconds after the start of the charging process, the personal ID is substituted by crosses except for a
few leading digits for data protection reasons.
