• Route the DC+ cable on the side of the protective cover marked with a + symbol.
• Use an Allen key (AF 5) to fasten the DC+ cable to the
DC+ connection with an M8x20 screw (torque: 12 Nm). Be
sure to adhere to the following screw assembly: screw head
| spring washer | fender washer | terminal lug | DC
connection.
☑ The entire contact surface of the fender washer is in
contact with the terminal lug.
