Prior to using the temperature sender, it is
important to ask the relevant manufacturer of
the vehicle, equipment system or engine for
the maximum torque value of the threaded hole
into which the temperature sender is to be
screwed (Nm max. Installation Area).
Non-observance of the maximum tightening
torque specified for the respective threaded hole
can result in damage to the vehicle, engine or
equipment system.
