## Led signals - Authentication method

##### Recharge without authentication

Charging without authentication does not require any special attention from the user, thus simplifying access to charging.

  Simply plug Prism's cable into the car, and charging will begin automatically.

##### Recharging with authentication

Charging with authentication requires the use of key fobs or RFID cards to allow a user to charge.

  In order to recharge, it will be sufficient to plug in the car, bring the key fob or RFID card close to the indicated area and wait for the beep. When this is done, charging will begin immediately.
