Step-by-Step Guide to Using the FLO EV Charger:

Whether you’re a seasoned EV driver or new to electric vehicles, charging with the FLO station is quick and easy. Follow these simple steps to charge your car while you’re at Westgate Honda:

1. Park in the Designated EV Charging Spot

2. Prepare for Charging
   If you’re using the FLO charger for the first time, you’ll need to set up the FLO mobile app (available for download on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store) or have your FLO card ready. The app offers a range of features, including finding nearby chargers, starting your charge session, and monitoring your EV’s charging status.
3. Connect the Charging Cable to Your Vehicle Once you’re parked, grab the charging cable from the station and plug it into your vehicle’s charging port. Ensure the connection is secure before starting the session.
4. Start the Charging Session Using the FLO App or Card
   To begin charging, you’ll need to authenticate yourself using the FLO app or your FLO card:
   • Using the FLO Mobile App:
     • Open the app, enter the station ID found on the charger.
     • The app will prompt you to start the session, and once activated, the charging process will begin. You can monitor the progress of the charging session directly from your phone, including the speed of charge and estimated time to completion.
   • Using a FLO Card:
     • Tap your FLO card on the station’s card reader. Once recognized, the charger will automatically start delivering power to your vehicle.
5. Monitor Your Charging Progress
   While your vehicle is charging, you can monitor the status through the FLO app. The app provides real-time information, such as the percentage of battery charged, the current charging rate, and how much time is remaining until your EV reaches full charge. This gives you the flexibility to relax in our customer lounge or go about your visit without worrying about the charging process.

The app will notify you that the session has ended, and you’ll receive a summary of the session, including the total energy used.
