Installation and Operating Instructions
Mounting
1. Locate a suitable position inside the vehicle to mount the control unit. It is
recommended that the unit be mounted on the same side of the vehicle as
the battery.
2. Fix the mounting plate to the vehicle using the double sided tape or screws
provided. Ensure the mounting position provides sufficient access for the
connection cable.
Connection
The connection cable is run directly from the vehicle's battery to the control unit. An
inline fuse (fitted to the cable) must be located at the battery end. It is recommended
that you start the installation at the battery end. Do not fit the fuse until the wiring is
complete.
1. Remove the fuse from the fuse holder.
2. Fit the positive wire (Red) to the positive (+) battery terminal with the supplied
ring terminal.
3. Fit the negative wire (Black) to the negative (-) battery terminal with the
supplied ring terminal.
4. Run the cable through the vehicle to the location of the control unit. When
running the cable through metal panels ensure existing or new rubber
grommets are used to prevent the metal panels from cutting through the
cable insulation. The cable must not run near the exhaust pipe, other hot
components or any moving parts.
5. Secure the cable with the supplied cable ties.
6. If there is excess cable remaining (Greater than 50cm) trim the excess cable
and strip the wire sheath to expose 8mm of wire.
7. Connect the positive wire (Red) to positive (+) connection terminal on the
base of the control unit.
8. Connect the negative wire (Black) to negative (-) connection terminal on the
base of the control unit.
9. Slide the control unit on to the mounting bracket until there is a slight click.
10. Refit the fuse (20Amp) to the fuse holder at the battery.
