You can safely ignore all the confusing and missing instructions at the airport.
1. Drive in to paid parking, proceed to the area just behind where the car rental stands used to be. Park in one of the EV-only stalls with a Charge Station.
2. You will note a “Data Station”, looking thus:
Fear not all the pointless buttons and lack of instructions.
Feed the Parking Ticket that you got at the gate entrance into aforesaid Data Station thusly:
Note orientation of parking ticket.
3. The Data Station will gurgle and run several passes over your ticket, erasing the parking fee, and changing it to a fixed price $7 charge fee.
4. Take your ticket and keep it
5. Advance to charge station,:
6. Unplug charge port, insert into vehicle.
5. Return to charge station. Ignore the instructions to insert a charge card, as there is no slot to insert a charge card. Fear not. Hit the arrow button towards that stall that you are parked in, and hit the big silver button.
6. Return to vehicle. Press “Timer Off”:
7. The Charge should start. Double check:
Look at the blue lights on your dash. One light should be flashing depending on your state of charge. If you see an ascending pattern of blue lights, you are not charging. That just means that you could charge had you followed the instructions.
8. When you leave the the parking area the ticket will ring up a fixed $7, no matter how long you parked. Best to move your car after it is charged over to the stalls just opposite the stalls with charge stations, as a courtesy.
9. Enjoy!
